Hi there,

I am working my way though my showroom using Couch and i have run into a few issue's i dont quite understand.

Question 1,
How does one use two tags in the showroom image seen here:
http://ela-media.com/pss-cms/showroom.php

I have it set to display the image value but i would also like to use the link tag to link the image to the full view of the item.

Question 2,

Setting up a gallery in the masterpage, as you can see from the above link i have a gallery setup to display the images of the vehicles, i noticed this link: http://www.couchcms.com/docs/concepts/p ... llery.html how would it be best to approach setting it up using the script Flexslider.

Question 3,

Related Stock to a category (See bottom of page)

I would like to display related stock from a category, is this possible with Couch?

Kind Regards
Alex

Hi Alex,

I have it set to display the image value but i would also like to use the link tag to link the image to the full view of the item.

To begin with you require the full image and its smaller version as editable regions.
Usually we create the main as editable region of type 'image' and create the smaller one as editable region of type 'thumbnail' attaching it to the main.

So, assuming the main image is named 'my_image' and the smaller image is 'my_image_thumb', this is how we use both -

Code: Select all

<a href="<cms:show my_image />" ><img src="<cms:show my_image_thumb />" /></a>

how would it be best to approach setting it up using the script Flexslider.

While we have a few choices here, I think the most straightforward would be to use a repeatable-region.

I would like to display related stock from a category, is this possible with Couch?

Sure. Use the 'Relationships' feature (http://www.couchcms.com/docs/concepts/r ... ships.html).
In your case both the ends of the relationship would be the same template e.g. cars.php related to cars.php in a many-to-many relation.

Hope this helps.
BTW, nice site Do post a link in our showcase section once it is finished.
