I was using Wordpress Random Header plugin. I tried modify it to change the header depending on time but I couldn’t finish it.

You’ve done my pending job, so let’s try it.

Thanks in advance.

I originally wrote some of the functions of the plugin using the PHP 5 scandir() function. I modified the plugin and created a new function that should be compatible with PHP 4. Thanks for the bug report!

Thanks for the quick update.

I think it would be better to use CSS background-image: url() no-repeat; to change the header image instead of background: url() no-repeat;.

Otherwise if someone has another attribute in #header background, like a bckg color, is not shown.

Hi again.

Since I installed image-rotator I didn’t access my permalinks option. But know that I’ve done it look what I’ve found:

Fatal error: Cannot redeclare add_js() (previously declared in /blog/wp-admin/options-permalink.php:9) in /blog/wp-content/plugins/image-rotator/header-image-rotator.php on line 154.

I’ve been years out of programming world so I don’t know now if what I’m going to say is nonsense.

Can I solve the problem changing function names in lines 153 and 248 of image-rotator.php ver 1.0?

I have the same question that was stated earlier about using this plugin with one’s chose theme. The theme I’m using, hitch 1.0, has basic stylesheet in the theme folder, of course. what does one need to make the plugin and the theme play nicely together?

Hello, you shouldn’t have to directly modify your theme. The plugin will take care of that. If you have any other questions please let me know. Thanks!

Hello, you won’t need to edit your theme at all with the plugin. It should take care of that for you by dynamically inserting Javascript and CSS into the head. If you’re having problems it may be a theme compatibility issue. Send me more details and I’ll look into it further. Thanks!

potaje.net — Thu, 08 Mar 2007 17:46:27 +0000

Permalinks page is working now. Thanks. Although now if I replace your CSS background: url() for background-image: url(), the header image does not appears.

My css template use a colored header this way: background: #8EBAFD;

I don’t know why when your plugin is working the background css (without color information) replace mine and then the header has a white background.

I know that’s so simple as add #8EBAFD into your plugin but the other way (using background-image) would be useful for any different color in any page of your blog template.

(I don’t know if I’ve explained myself correctly; we’re not used to speak in english here in Spain)

I use a Firefox plugin called Firebug to look at the CSS. It’s a very helpful tool. If you install the plugin you can inspect each css element on your main page. In looking at your site the CSS id is ‘headerimages’ instead of ‘header’. You will have to edit the header-image-rotator.php file and add your custom div id. In the hir_add_css() function, change the line ‘$headerID = get_option(’header_id’);’ to ‘$headerID = headerimages;’. Check it and the plugin should now be working. If not, let me know and we can tale a look again. Thanks!

Ok thanks, I haven’t checked it out yet. After fooling around with the installed plugins yesterday I started having all kinds of problems. I just cleaned it all up and re-installed everything. I will make that change and give it a try. And thanks for the tip on the plugin for FF. Sound’s like a great tool.

hello there,

thanks for your comment. i looked at your site and it appears that your theme uses a different header class called ‘hid_1′. to fix this you will have the edit the header-image-rotator.php file. first, deactivate the plugin. open the header-image-rotator.php file and find the function hir_add_css(). in that function, find the line ‘#$headerID’ and change it to ‘.hid_1 #$headerID’ (without the quotation marks of course). reupload the file and reactivate the plugin and it should now be working. if you’re still having trouble please let me know. thanks for using the plugin!

Yes, I’m sorry to say it doesn’t seem to be working for me either. I’d be very grateful for any insight you can offer.

Also, I am wondering if there is an easy way to change the time frames to something shorter than a minute, for those who click through pages quickly. In fact, is it possible to change the image with each page visited? Or am I just looking for a different plug-in?

With thanks,
Myf

Thanks for that great plugin.

Just a little bug I have noticed which I cannot to manage to solve : if you use images in the header-images like the default kubrickheader.jpg image, then that header image seems to be very slightly shifted by 1 pixel on the right, thus not falling right on top of the body.

Would you have any ideas on solving that ?

[To see what happens, just put kubrickheader.jpg in the header-images folder.]

Thanks a lot !

Hi,

Your plugin sounds great.

Right now as I am learning I am trying
to keep these simple.

Do I understand correctly, that I can use

your plugin?

It would be great to be able rotate out of the basic header with a niche themed header image!

Thanks for your time.

By: Jan

A header rotator that finally works!! Thanks for that.
I will tell to Barry: if you go in the plugin file you can change the half hour to 5 minutes so that can help. ’cause 1 minute are too short and half hour is too much. So you can put the level to 2, 3 or 5 minutes. After that you go to the plugin options section and change the level to half-hour but will display every 5 minutes a new header.
But… the great news is at this plugin is the first some work without complications. And the best thing are these: you can rename the CSS rule in the options zone. In my case #headerpic and work amazing. Thanks!! to MHough for developed these free tool for us.

Craig… you must change the Div name. If you have a image in another place, if your header call #banner so you must put #banner in the image rotator options. Default are #header but you can change that value to any you will and will work. The important things is arrange the images to the place you will the rotation of images. I have try with 8 images and work amazing. In Mistylook the DIV name is #headerimage. So you must put that name in the options. Will work super after do that.

Greetings,

Thank you for the creation of the wonderful plugin and the help you’ve given everyone. I’m having issues myself.

Using cutline theme, I did this as recommended:

thanks for your comment. i looked at your site and it appears that your theme uses a different header class called ‘hid_1′. to fix this you will have the edit the header-image-rotator.php file. first, deactivate the plugin. open the header-image-rotator.php file and find the function hir_add_css(). in that function, find the line ‘#$headerID’ and change it to ‘.hid_1 #$headerID’ (without the quotation marks of course). reupload the file and reactivate the plugin and it should now be working. if you’re still having trouble please let me know. thanks for using the plugin!

But it’s still not functioning.

Here’s a snippet from the php:

}

function hir_add_css(){
$img = switch_image();
$headerID = get_option(’header_id’);
print

var img = new Image();
img.src = ‘$img’;

.hid_1 #$headerID
background: url(’$img’) no-repeat;
background-position: top left;
}

EOT;
}

function hir_add_js() {
print

Any suggestions would be helpful. Thanks!

I have installed and activated the plugin with no problem, then added a few header images,content/header-images. I can see the images listed under Options > Header Image Rotator. So everything appears to be correct. No imagis are coming in the header. Thanks in advance for your help! (By the way I’m using Tiga 1.0.2 by Shamsul Azhar as my theme and I set the header rotator to One Minute. Thanks

Heya,

This plugin rocks. Thank you so much for sharing it.

QUESTION:

Is 60 the maximum number of images that can be shown? I’ve been adding more and more images to the header-images file and they all show up on the Options/Header Image Rotator page, yet once the rotation reaches the 60th image it starts over again at the top, neglecting the other images below.

Any ideas?

Thanks.

Cheers - this works a treat - and saves me doing different themes just to display a different header image!

In my case, I edited the php file so that the header is positioned at the bottom of the header - as I have the website name and search at the top.

Another user asked if would be best to have the Css call up the header image, but its best to display banners as an image, not background.

Also, the plug verifies as xhtml when its called up.

Thanks for the time and effort you put in to create this.

as the way header images have been displayed so far without “Random Image Rotator” activated.

I went through all of your instructions to see if the plugin was working, and it is.

Thank you for this amazing plugin. I need lot’s of novelty and so does everybody else!
