Hey guys

ive been using cms made simple and i find it very handy but the one thing i cant belive hasnt been created is a news rotator such as the joomla frontpage slidshow

http://www.frontpageslideshow.org

I got albi to edit the news module on my site so it would appear in a frontpage slideshow view, which he did and i have it being used here:

My Site

joomla have released new templates for the slideshow and i want to get these integrated into my cms and im waiting on alby to get back to me about doing it.

It seems very complex what he had to do to integrate it, i would like to help get a module made using this code so all users of cms can have access to a news rotator like this.

Anyone interested in helping, in not a programmer.

uhm, this doesn't need a module, or I don't think any php coding.  I could be wrong, but I don't think so.

CMS Made Simple is powerful enough to do this by itself... all YOU NEED TO KNOW is a little javascript, and ajax... jquery makes it even easier.

As is the principle with CMSMS... a little bit of knowledge will carry a long way... if you can make this work with the News module, then it would work fine with the companydirectory module, the Products module, the Questions module... or pretty much any other module that had a summary type view.
