Rotating Banners from specific folder
20 August 2010 at 2:06pm
After way too many hours of scouring ... I come to the forum for help. This is not a hard request but I simply can't figure it out.
I installed DOM and SWFUPLOAD and ImageGallery and everything works great. Uncle Cheese rocks!
I created an album called Banners. The idea is for an individual to access SS CMS and upload a banner that will then automatically be displayed on the homepage. I have the jquery working that rotates the banners and if i drop the absolute url of the pic in there everything works.
But I can not within my HomePage.php establish the correct query nor the correct control in the HomePage.ss
What is the best way to display everything that is being dropped into a specific folder "assets/image-gallery/Banners" and have it displayed on the HomePage.
Thank you for your help.

public function Banners() {
$folder = Folder::findOrMake("image-gallery/Banners");
return DataObject::get("Image", "ParentID = $folder->ID");

Thank you for the quick response ...
Here is what I have tried ... and I am still missing something because it is not working
----------------------
HomePage.php<?php
/**
* Defines the HomePage page type
*/class HomePage extends Page {
static $db = array(
);static $has_one = array(
);public function Banners() {
$folder = Folder::findOrMake("image-gallery/Banners");
return DataObject::get("Image", "ParentID = $folder->ID");
}
}class HomePage_Controller extends Page_Controller {
}
?>---------------------------------
HomePage.ss......
<body>
<div id="container">
<div id="main">
<div id="wrapper">
<div id="slider">
<% control Banners %>
<img src="$URL" />
<% end_control %>
</div>
</div>
$Content
</div>
<div id="right">
</div>
</div>
</body>
</html> -
