Joomla Random Flash Module

This module allows you to randomize a number of flash files. Each time your page is reloaded, a random file will be displayed.

This module is once again, straight forward, simple and self-explanatory. Just install, enter the path to the flash files, and other parameters, and you are up and running.

Download

ive followed ur instruction on how to use your Joomla Random Flash Module but it
its not working. can u send me the whole step by step process on how to do
it.

thanks.
DART Creations  - Instructions   |217.145.5.xxx |2007-06-22 08:41:17
Leo:

Step 1. Rename your flash files to 1.swf, 2.swf, 3.swf etc. It is very
important to rename them to just a number.swf and order is after each other i.e.
1,2,3,4

Step 2. Upload your flash files to images/stories or any other path
that you choose. You can do this using Joomla Media Manager or using FTP or
anything else. Take note of the path example images/stories

Step 3. In the
module parameters enter the following options:

Number of files - this is the
number of flash files you have uploaded e.g. 4
Flash Base - the path where you
have put the files (e.g. images/stories)

Width / Height - define the width
and height of the files. The original files should be the same size, so that you
don't have problems when displaying the module.

Choose to publish the module
and save.

I have received a number of emails regarding people who have used
it successfully. Usually any problem that might happen is with the path...

Mark Fenley  - Can't get it to work in the h   |76.97.68.xxx |2007-09-27 22:02:03
It works when I select other module positions (Banner, Newsflash) but when
header is selected, nothing. Is there something special I need to do to get it
to work in the header position? I am using joomla version 1.0.12. Thanks in
advanced..
DART Creations  - Header   |85.232.195.xxx |2007-09-28 05:52:38
Mark, this is not a problem with the module, but a problem with the template.
Your template probably does not have the header position defined, and thus the
module won't display there. Please read the following article to understand what
I am saying:

Koos  - link in the same window   |85.145.200.xxx |2007-10-23 17:56:19
Hi ,

How can I make the link open in the same window? Now the link opens in a
new window. I have found 2 files:

1) mod_randomflash.php
2)
mod_randomflash.xml

Where exactly do I adjust the target?
Please, see our
flashbanner on zzz.baj.nu

Thanks,
Koos (Holland).
DART Creations  - Link in new window   |85.232.194.xxx |2007-10-23 18:50:23
Koos, please note that the module DOES NOT support linking, therefore your link
is not coming from our component but from the flash banner that you have. Please
get in touch with the person who has created the flash banner for you and
instruct them that you do not want the link to open in a new window.

Hope this
helps, if not please send us an email using the Contact Us page.
librarc  - great script   |190.58.41.xxx |2007-10-27 14:03:10
Excellent script! Question though, my flash is positinoned to the right of a
menu that has sub category menus. The problem is when the flash is shown, the
sub cat menus show behind the flash as seen here:
nolinkspls://208.109.191.81//index.php

this may not have anything to do with
you per say but I was wondering if you know a solution for this??

This should be very great.
Thanks
DART Creations  - More than one   |85.232.198.xxx |2007-11-21 22:18:45
Why don't your create a new template position where you require the second
flash, and then use a second copy of the module to display additional flash
files where you require.

The module has still not been converted to 1.5, however if you could get in
touch via the Contact form, i would take a look and see what might be happening.
lowjoy  - not displaying   |Registered |2008-04-11 22:12:19
I installed it and it ran great with a 468x60. decided I needed a rectangle so
I changed it to 300x250, made 2 300x250 swf's 11.swf and 12.swf, created a new
folder: images/stories/flash,uploaded the files, put this path in the module,

set # to 2, set mod name to show. I see the shape of the module has changed,
the name but no images. I checked the path and the images show up. My site is
nolinkspls://localroost.com.
WHAT AM I MISSING?
DART Creations  - not displaying   |85.232.196.xxx |2008-04-12 07:46:16
lowjoy, you just need to rename the swf to 1.swf and 2.swf, rather than 11.swf
and 12.swf, because the module is look for 1.swf and 2.swf.

stass,

I've takea look but can't figure out what's wrong. Everything seems
ok.

Can you try creating another flash file and see if it works with more
than 1 file?
stasss  - IE problem   |Registered |2008-05-13 11:16:49
i have tried with two files..that are unique...1.swf and 2.swf and i have set
the module to 2 files...it`s still the same...

have tried Opera also...it
works perfect..the only problem is IE!

Could it be the swf file Itself the
problem?
DART Creations  - IE Problem   |217.145.5.xxx |2008-05-13 11:59:08
I would think that if the problem was the file, it wouldn't work on the
frontpage either though.

Are there any modules / components which are
different on the frontpage than the pages where the banner is not displayed.
They may be interfering ...
stasss  - IE problem   |Registered |2008-05-13 12:24:35
no... all modules and components are on all pages turned on except on NAŠE
ZNAMKE, but there is no module anyway...

but i noticed something now.. i have
sublevel items on NAVODILA and on PONUDBA but not on POGOJI POSLOVANJA, and
there the flash modul works in IE!

so what do sublevel menu items have to do
with this?

or is it the JOOMSEF? i had to turn off all Itemid setting for
sublevel menu to work, but IE had problems even before that...

any idea?
thanks
DART Creations  - IE Problem   |217.145.5.xxx |2008-05-13 13:48:20
Well, then there must be something in the other (non sub level pages) which is
different. Best is to compare the pages (HTML generated), between the areas
where it works, and the areas where it doesn't.

Switching off JoomSEF
temporarily might also help you to determine whether it is the one causing the
problem.
stasss  - IE problem   |Registered |2008-05-13 16:11:29
I have turned off JoomSEF and ther is no change,
i have looked at the html code
from the page that works and the one that doesn`t but the part where the flash
is generated is the same...
stasss  - no help?   |Registered |2008-05-20 22:49:34

troniksoft  - Very nice module   |81.80.75.xxx |2008-06-25 13:56:19
Very nice module but just one thing : just a problem with menus in CSS wich
appears behind flash animations.
I try to modify module by adding a ""
but it doesn't (I think I would have to add a "position:absolute" in css
file but it will looks bad with my template...)
Is there any solution for that ?
troniksoft  - I have the solution   |81.80.75.xxx |2008-06-25 14:04:09
To resolve probelm with flash and menu css, you just have to add :
-
- in
"object", wmode="transparent"
- in "embed",
wmode="transparent"

Hi There!, Thanks for your previous answer... now I have another one.
Modules
content is not loading on other pages than the front page when SEO friendly Urls
is activated but it shows ok everywhere when it's not activated, I guess the
problem is with the paths to the altered (seo friendly) page names but I'm just
guessing, I'm working on it, but maybe you have the solution in the pocket.

Thanks a lot for your attention
DART  - Not showing   |SAdministrator |2008-09-16 05:44:02
David,

since the module does not modify / generate any links whatsoever, the
problem you are having probably stems from something else. Are you using
sh404SEF? If you aren't I suggest you use that one.

you'll just need to add wmode="transparent" to both the object and

Great module. Easy to setup and use.

Would like to know if there is a way to

Thx
DART  - Flash play just once   |217.145.5.xxx |2009-01-19 13:15:30
Hi gspeyrer,

typically this is something which is controlled when you are
developing your flash file. However, you can try adding the loop=false parameter
in the embed code as per the following
instructions.

nolinkspls://forums.techguy.org/w
eb-design-development/480452-flash-loop-play-once- only.html

You'd need to
edit the php of the module to do this.

magicspon  - IE problem with SEF     |77.98.147.xxx |2009-04-18 23:40:14
Hello,

Been reading through the above posts. I have the same problem as many
other people. The flash only loads on the front page.

I disabled sef
(sh404SEF) and it works on all pages. However I MUST use sh404SEF.

Do you know
how to fix this.

Thanks in advance
DART  - IE Problem with SEF   |217.145.5.xxx |2009-04-20 06:49:26
Typically SEF might be creating an incorrect path to the flash files. Check
about the path which is created, and update it accordingly in the module's
parameters.

Hello,

hope this works for everyone else, as it has for me...

you need to put
a / at the beginning of the path, i.e.

/images/stories/

cheers

I've tested on Chrome and it looks ok. I've take a look at the source too, and
it seems to be fine ... Try with / without the slashes infront.

Any ideas?
DART   |78.133.16.xxx |2009-05-24 07:35:50
Try putting a slash / in the front of your flash location. This is usually the
problem.
rclinton  - re:   |70.167.22.xxx |2009-05-24 15:03:14
Actually it seems to be a problem with the AC_RunActiveContent.js requirement. I
added the inline javascript to the module and the flash runs. However, this
nukes the randomizer due to these java params:
'src', '3',
'id',
'."3',
'name', '3',

Is there a work around in Flash to eliminate the
AC_RunActiveContent.js requirement or a way to put the value
'$flashbase/$top.swf' in the javascript?

Did we work out the problem for the flash not showing in FF3 but working in
every other browser. eg: "/" does not make it work, and adding the "
AC_run.js" does not either any ideas... cheers
rclinton   |70.167.22.xxx |2009-05-28 12:04:11
No I added the "/" and that didn't do it. The issue is definitely with
the AC_RunActiveContent inline script. Any thoughts?

I've read through the stuff above and would like to use your module. What I
have set up works correctly in IE and Safari but not FireFox. I see several
have posted about this before but I don't see a solution.

All the best
DART   |217.145.5.xxx |2009-06-18 13:39:46
The problem is typically extra slashes before or after the images path parameter
in the module. Experiment with various options. Preferably no slashes are placed
neither before nor after i.e. images/flash
pauloms   |87.103.93.xxx |2009-06-20 00:20:49
I also have the compatiliby problem with FF3. I tried with and without
"/". It doesn't work.
DART  - Code updated   |78.133.9.xxx |2009-06-20 20:17:48
Hey all, please download the latest version of Joomla Random Flash, it has been
updated to work correctly with FireFox!
tacotac   |71.239.93.xxx |2009-07-08 23:06:15
Thanks! Compared to other help/mods out there, this was the easiest and least
confusing to use - AND - it works!!

Hello

I am very new to Joomla 1.5 and would appreciate your patience with
me.

I have 2 questions:
1. I need to put a flash on my frontpage
highlighting viewers to go to my Open Handed Page. Please send me a very simple
step by step instruction.
2. I need to add more text to my title on the front
page. How do I do this?
many thanks

Good module... i was searching one like that for a long while
diesel   |165.145.119.xxx |2009-10-29 15:30:31
do I need to uninstall my current flash module in order to use this one
DART   |92.251.70.xxx |2009-10-29 16:19:47
No you shouldn't need to uninstall any existing modules
christianjw  - Quick questions     |82.133.18.xxx |2009-11-21 12:58:58
Just a couple of quick questions. Is there a way to control the position of the
flash file? I want it to sit in the centre of the module but having no joy. Also
how to you set it to loop the movie?
DART   |78.133.14.xxx |2009-11-23 22:56:11
Center: try adding div with align=center, for lopping, add parameters for
looping. Both should be quite simple customisations.
christianjw   |82.133.18.xxx |2009-12-06 19:57:31
Can you give me an idea of where I would put that code? If you take a look at my
sitre you will see what I mean, zzz.wessexwyverns.org.uk
reshon   |78.111.55.xxx |2011-03-11 08:28:50
Amazing module! thank you veru much!! Could you please tell me if it is possible
instead of randomization make the static sequence? like i put 2 banners and it
changes every time i refresh ne page. For now because of the randomization it
may show same banner in 4-5 refreshes...
Hanna83  - re     |193.104.208.xxx |2011-04-13 12:32:37
I was thinking of developing a number of the modules as plugins too to enable
what you have in mind. In the meantime you can use the following article to do
what you want to do.
mrdave  - no loop   |217.146.200.xxx |2011-05-03 16:13:27
Hello! is a great module and very simple.

loop

Thank you so much

I would prefer to thank you for that efforts you might have produced in writing
this article. I am hoping the exact same best do the job from you within the
long term too. In reality your inventive writing abilities has inspired me to
start my very own BlogEngine weblog now.

automatically this will be helpful for gaming portals like Y8

Stitch  - Can't make it work properly     |188.138.145.xxx |2011-12-15 14:28:41
"Step 3. In the
module parameters enter the following options:

Number
of files - this is the
number of flash files you have uploaded
e.g. 4
Flash Base - the path where you
have put the files (e.g.
images/stories)

Width / Height - define the width
and height of the files.
The original files should be the same size, so that you
don't have
problems when displaying the module."

It says here that it suppose to have Number of files in Module
parameters, I don't have it, mines starts with Flash Base... how to make it
run??? Help please
Stitch     |188.138.145.xxx |2011-12-15 14:30:39

This is what I have in parameters module after I installed...
Stitch   |188.138.145.xxx |2011-12-15 14:37:33
Thanks, no use to reply... found the solution.. it was because of the
Path

If anyone is interested this is how I did and it works. The default
path is images/stories
I created a folder called flash inside the
stories and in Flash Base add flash after stories. Your path should look
like this: images/stories/flash

Thanks!
