Description

Hello,

Thank you for this excellent yet simple implementation of a flash slide show.

Is it possible to use the diaporama slideshow in a block or region?

I am using the views slideshow at http://stanislausbandra.in , I can easily use views slideshow in a region of the theme or a sidebar. However your implementation is much more appealing and intuitive for the user.

Thanks

How about Node As Block?
http://drupal.org/project/nodeasblock

I'm using it and things are going nicely.

Thanks,

I will try it out. Have you used diaporama with Node as a Block?

@gmasky
Yes, I have.
But only for a content region.
Not for a side bar region yet.

It works quite well.
The only limitation is that child menu items of Nice Menus are hidden below the diaporama
as I said at
http://drupal.org/node/282740

you can use a view and using the taxonomy you can get the slideshow in a block view for sure.
