Hang on didn’t I put you onto Splide?

Apologies @apswoodwork for hijacking your thread for 20 mins. The serious part can continue below.

Hi @WeatherguyNH
I have that but hasn’t been updated or improved for ages

[Flashman]

I think it’s a safe bet it never will be updated.

[apswoodwork]

No problem @Jerry .
I dig into the messages to see which option fit me best.
I’m always reading threads, even if they don’t direct relate to my humble site (or understanding)!

Ye @PeteSharp
You’ve generously helped me before with my testimonials slider.

Hi there, I’ve not made one with a free account, but from what I can see it’s only storage size that differs. You can still upload a decent amount of images to the 0.5gb free account limit.

Plus the images created on demand and cached are the right size for the device, saving bandwidth on mobile devices and for meeting google page experience criteria.

Truly beautiful paintings mate. There are some huge files sizes on the page though, I think one is around 3mb.

Thanks very much.
Yes, a couple of the earlier ones up there weren’t optimised properly, that’s something for when I get into a revamp in the new year, but thanks for the comment.

Hi Jerry:

Splide is interesting Jerry. Tell me, how easy is it to continually change the images in this carousel?

Thanks

Hi @WeatherguyNH
I’ve just sat down to read about this (namely Volt and Splide) for an hour now also.

Hi @WeatherguyNH. Adding images is as easy as using the image bric. I posted a few months ago a short tutorial on how to implement Splide here:

Carousel showing multiple images

Hi @burnardo. It’s actually not complicated to add Splide to your Blocs website. I’m not a coder at all and probably I’m taking to the tourist route to get there. But hey, it works! I’ll explain on how to add a basic carousel. Here we go: Download Splide here: https://splidejs.com Unzip and locate the files: splide.min.js and splide.min.css. Attach both in the project settings of your file. [2021-10-08_14-48-46] Add the followin…

Thanks Jerry, I might just give a go.

Hi,
I realize while testing Splide on a website where I also use Volt, that the modifications made with Volt are not saved!
Has anyone had this problem and more importantly, found a solution?

[Jerry]

@Tatos

I also use Volt, that the modifications made with Volt are not saved!

Not sure if I’m following you.

[Tatos]

On the page where I integrated a carousel with Splide, all blocks editable with Volt do not keep changes when saved and logged out.

[Tatos]

After redoing a test, I managed to keep the modifications of a block outside the carousel.
On the other hand, it’s impossible to modify the contents of the carousel.
Certainly a conflict between Volt and Splide, but I can’t seem to resolve it!
I can select an item from a list, but not modify it.
Same for the title and the image…

@Tatos

I managed to keep the modifications of a block outside the carousel.

So you have Volt Content inside a Splide carousel?

[Jerry]

Call me blond but I’m still not following you.

[Tatos]

Hi InStacks,

Yes, look at my screenshot above, unable to edit content…
