Hey,

Your Block has worked perfectly so far for my website. But yesterday, I installed the ctools-Security-Update and since then, the block doesn't seem to work any more. I am not sure, if ctools really is responsible for that, because going back to the old version (incl. database-restore) did nod solve the issue. And what's more, I made some changes to the css-file at the same time which might be responsible for the issue, too.

However, I am not able to make the block work again. Firebug says, the pictures are loaded, but they are greyed out in the source code in firebug, so either css or the module makes them not to show up.

You may have a look yourselves at http://www.pfadix.de

I ran out of Ideas, that's why I write an issue here. I am able to give you more specifications about the website, if you state, which ones you need. Thank you.

I use drupal 7.14, ddblock version 7.x-1.0, ctools 7.x-1.2

It looks like the sites/all/libraries/jquery.cycle/jquery.cycle.all.js JavaScript is not there.

This causes a JavaScript error in the JavaScript of the ddblock module

Hope this helps you further, please let me know.

Yep, putting the file in place solved the problem. However, backup showed, that this file never was there before. Strange. But I'm happy with how it works now.

I have similar issue. I have looked in the directory for the jquery file and it is in the path that you mentioned. What could be the reason for the images not to show up. http://new.nassitsl.org

Thanks

Their are several JavaScript errors on the page, one is caused by the cycle plugin js file: sites/all/libraries/jquery.cycle/jquery.cycle.all.js

I see there is a new version of the cycle plugin available at: http://malsup.github.io/jquery.cycle.all.js
Don't know if this version still works with the ddblock module (will test it)
but in your jquery.cycle.all.js at your site I see the following characters at the top:

{\rtf1\ansi\ansicpg1252\cocoartf1038\cocoasubrtf360
{\fonttbl\f0\fmodern\fcharset0 Courier;}
{\colortbl;\red255\green255\blue255;}
\margl1440\margr1440\vieww9000\viewh8400\viewkind0
\deftab720
\pard\pardeftab720\ql\qnatural

\f0\fs24 \cf0 

could you try to replace it with the file from http://malsup.github.io/jquery.cycle.all.js

Please let me know if this helps

That was the issue. Thanks... I still have some more work to do... All text are all over the place

My only problem now is to make the read more show. What should I map it with and how should I set it up in views? The instruction did not go into details on how it should be done, or probably I misread it.

If you want to link to the nodes of the slides itself you can add a path field to the view (which will give the aliased path to the node) and map that to the readmore. Rewrite the result of the field in views so it becomes a link. (see below)

If you want to link to any place (other pages on the site, other sites), add a link field (link module) to the content type for the slides and add this field to the view. Use the url of the link field for the URL and the url_text as the link text. (see below)

The result of the field in the view needs to be a link:

<a href="[URL]">[Link text]</a>

Hope this helps you further, please let me know.

P.S. Please make different post for different issues, so issues are better to find for other users.

I did not mean to post in this thread again. However, I am faced with similar issue as the original poster. I know I have visited this thread before and have resolved similar issue as before. This time around, it is not the jquery file because I replaced again with a copy of the file... This is the site http://www.nassitsl.org/

Thanks for your help

There are 2 JavaScript errors on the page.

1. JavaScript error in the json2.js file.
Uncaught SyntaxError: Unexpected token <

In the advanced settings of the ddblock module there is a field for custom jQuery code.
Maybe the json format is not right there or a WYSIWYG editor puts code into this field.
remove or adjust the code or disable the WYSIWYG editor for this field.

2. JavaScript error in the views_slideshow_cycle.js file
Uncaught TypeError: Object #

has no method 'hoverIntent' There are JavaScript parameters for the views_slideshow module on the page, but I don't see a views_slideshow slideshow Maybe there is a conflict on the page between the ddblock module and the views_slideshow module on the page. Could you turn of view_slideshow to see if that causes the error.

I have tried the above things and no luck... I am sending you a PM, for you to login and see what I have done wrong. I am pretty sure I followed the instructions and just updating captcha and backup migrate, then trying to remove the transparent slide text, then I noticed something broken. Thanks again
