I want to create a product preview gallery page for a certain node type. I do not want to use any eCommerce plugin nor do I want to use Drupal's Kick Starter. I simply want to replicate the image thumbnail hover/gallery in Amazon's inner product pages. Is there a way you can do this in a simpler approach? A simple plugin will do, but it would be best if it can be done even simpler just by using Drupal 7's defaults.
I hope I'm not violating any policies that will get me flagged or be voted down for asking this. Thank you very much!
You can create a gallery with drupal views and views slideshow.

Also it would helpful if you could provide a link to the page you are referring to in amazon to get a better idea.
Hope it helps.

Looking to use the DNN Taxonomy either by using 2sxc's Folksonomy on its own or if there was a way to join the two tag tables and sync tags across site. For example the 2sxc Blog app has Categories and Tags, the 2sxc News app has Categories but no tags (out of the box), is it possible to use the same Categories list for both apps where the list is actually the tag terms set in the Vocabulary terms db table?
Is this use case something that can be achieved using the visual query designer?
I'm looking to use the 2sxc Blog, 2sxc News apps and create a similar Document management app where all apps use same Categories list (list set by us and will not change) and Tags which admins can add remove similar to Blog app which would be a hierarchical tree list in the Vocabulary terms table.
UPDATE:
Trying to achieve something similar to what WatchersNET has in their TagCloud module (https://github.com/w8tcha/WatchersNET.TagCloud) where you can select a DNN Vocabulary or use a custom tag which is a great feature to incorporate DNN's built in Vocabulary, see below
Yes, this can be done, and isn't implemented ATM.
I'm not sure if the DNN Taxonomy would be the ideal place to start - but if you're already using it it could easily work.
Yes, visual query would be a simple place to start - with a Dnn-Sql Data source.
Another alternative is to create a custom WebApi. ATM there is no dropdown-from-webapi yet, but if you need it, I'm sure we could add this in no time :).
I built a community visualization with various fields. One field that I'm adding is a URL, composed as the documentation suggests, that links to a filter in another page.
While the URL is fine and working, I cannot use it in a normal link or a form because the iframe in which the community visualization is embedded is sandboxed to allow only scripts.
Is there another way to change the top frame navigation, or switch to another page from within the visualization? Maybe through a javascript call?
Thanks
Community Visualizations do not allow links to external resources, so there's no way to make the visualization act as a link to a filter on another page.
I am creating a hybrid app (IONIC + AngularJS). Using Drupal as my Backend. I am using Drupal services and getting the JSON data.
I would like to improve the speed/performance of getting the data. Most of the data will be images.
On the first page, i just want a list of the user's firstnames. When you click on a name you get the details page for that user. This page contains a lot of images.
What is the best way of doing this?
If my list contains a 100 people with profile pictures. I don't want to download all this information. Just the information of the person that was selected from the list. Is this possible? Is this a good idea? I am sorry if this is dumb questions. I am a beginner.
Do you have a better suggestion on how to do this?
Thanks in advance
JSON
[{"firstName":"John", "Image1":"John.jpg", "Image2":"John2.jpg", "Image3":"John3.jpg"},
{"firstName":"Jane", "Image1":"Jane.jpg", "Image2":"Jane2.jpg", "Image3":"Jane3.jpg"},
{"firstName":"Sam", "Image1":"Sam.jpg", "Image2":"Sam2.jpg", "Image3":"Sam3.jpg"}]

I am working on a project where my client has no idea about joomla admin panel.
So I have decided to provide a separate admin pannel which my client can access and manage few things.
I am also having multiple pages and sub-pages in this admin panel.
Lets say I want to give multiple manage links.
manage item
sub-menu
manage item 2
I am little confuse how do I do it, once I thought about component and moduel but I don't know how to add menu links in components for front end.
I am using joomla 3.0.
Many thanks in advance.
If your intention is creating a backend alternative to joomla to control joomla's frontend, this is a hard thing to do if you are just a e-commerce website developer.
But if you need a different account other than your administrator account, you can add one account and edit it's privileges.
A second admin panel for easier use? sorry that sounds not good. Just do it like serhat above said. make a new account for joomla admin-panel. cut of the privileges so the user see only the things he has access to! its better then coding a fully new admin panel. there is already a fully configurable panel so why do another one?
Give the users just what they have to see and hide the rest (via admin-privileges)
Any idea, how can we create already running website to Mobile Website?
Are there, ready made plug-ins / components available ?
I've found some like wapple.net however it is paid one, which is not feasible for client's budget.
I have found, XML creations is pretty easy in CakePHP, though your ideas would be appreciated.
Kindly share more details on the same !
Regards,
i dont think that you'll find a plugin that will transform your website for mobile. because there are too many decisions to make when creating a mobile web, for me it's like creating a completly different website with only the necessary information that your website has..
But maybe there are components that might help you with the small taks (like detecting the user agent and stuff).. here you can read two good articles about creating a mobile website:
http://www.smashingmagazine.com/2010/11/03/how-to-build-a-mobile-website/
http://www.smashingmagazine.com/2009/01/13/mobile-web-design-trends-2009/
There's also a few JS frameworks that will help you with the interaction with the user, i've only used Sencha touch..
But my guess is that you'll have to adapt/create "manually" the css, html and js for mobile, and I don't think that there's a magical tool to do that, you'll have to do it yourself (or pay someone to do it =D)
Hope this helps, Good Luck!
You may be interested in my answer over here:
CakePHP v2.2.1 Solution (+ Cookies to persist mobile/desktop/other layout)
In a nutshell:
Lets you setup mobile layouts /Views/Layouts/mobile/default.ctp
Mobile views /Views/Pages/mobile/home.ctp
Sets a template variable $is_mobile
Lets you force a specific layout ?forcedLayout=desktop, and remembers this in a COOKIE
If no layout is forced it uses CakePHP's User-Agent detection to make the decision $this->request->is('mobile')
If no ../mobile/ layout or view file exists then it falls back to the default layout or view.
Typically with cakephp you want to create a separate view layout for mobile viewing. The app controller should change the default view layout to the mobile one when detecting a mobile browser.
Your mobile view layout should be made by you, only you know what data on your site is important and what is not (aka, what should be removed /kept for mobile viewing) Also your mobile layout can use alternate CSS and only load the elements you want.
To learn more about creating views in cakephp see the cookbook:
