Hi,
can someone point me to a good full width news slider. I use Unite Slider but all news need to be added manually. Here is the url gg.mk and I need to change with something similar. Thanks!

Since you know your way around coding you can create a custom K2 content module using kenwheeler.github.io/slick/

Thanks for the compliment Krikor but I have no idea how can I do that :D . Point me to a direction and I can learn it.
I was thinking more out of the box solution when I asked this topic.

Thanks,
Gorast

Actually if you have override the component templates -> getk2.org/documentation/tutorials/174-templating-with-k2-and-the-concepts-of-sub-templates it is the same principle.
Override the default template name it eg: slideshow and read slick's documentation. It's basically HTML/CSS from that point.

Hi Krikor,
I should modify the Category listing... I quite dont understand. May be you didnt understand me. I need to make something like Front Page Slideshow but for K2 items that will fetch from some category.

Thanks,
Gorast

Hey there,

The K2 Content module will automatically pull K2 items based on certain filters in contrast with FrontPage slideshow which while it allows multiple sources (menus, custom links, J! articles) the slide creation is a manual task.

You can alter the module's template and create a new template which instead of a list it displays a slideshow.
