Just wondering how to adjust the slideshow height. I hoped it might be a setting within the module, THEN I hoped as a second preference it might derive height from the image but this doesn't work either - it appears to be hard-coded.

Any help appreciated.

Hello David,

In your custom.css file just add
.contentSlideshow .itemsWrapper { height: HEIGHT_px; }

Where HEIGHT is the height is pixels eg:height: 590px which is now at the moment.

Thanks Krikor, that worked perfectly. I see now however that the item detail also has the same hard coded height issue and the following doesn't work:

.itemImageBlock.landscapeSize { height: 400px; }

It would be really great if the item image could handle variable heights (allow clients to add their own images)

This is functioning a bit different than the slideshow.

If the user uploads an image larger than a specific ratio ( 4/3 by default ) the layout will revert to a smaller image with a blurred background.
Let me know if you want to increase or decrease that threshold. I can help you force one of the two layouts as well.

Hi Krikor. Yes I noticed that blurred background solution which is actually very nice. I'd like to retain that functionality but reduce the height of the entire .itemImageBlock block (ideally using overrides to allow smooth upgrades).

Thanks again for your time on this.

The .itemImageBlock.landscapeSize controls the ratio of the image. To keep both the blurred icon and reduce the height you can specify a height or a fixed ratio for that CSS class.

Eg. in your custom css add something like:
or
This will affect the landscape photos and leave the blurred background functionality intact.

All sorted Krikor - many thanks again
