Description
I installed the 6.x-2.0-alpha2 version, enabled all the modules and followed the instructions. I did not find anywhere to create a view using the jCarousel Lite for a display. It wasn't under view type or display type. What am I doing wrong?

#1
I'm encountering the same problem.
#2
I have the same problem...also as regards the nodes implementation!
#3
Confirmed, #393886: Drupal 6 port either didn't port the views part or it slipped somehow while I was applying the patch manually.

Found the same thing - views integration doesn't work. I can see the jcarousel views module among the jcarousel lite modules and I've enabled it, but here is no option to use it anywhere.
Also, the documentation states
"For views integration, make sure you have Views module enabled then create a view and choose 'jCarousel Lite View' from the Views 'view type' drop-down."
In views, I'm not aware of any "view type" drop-down menu. I'm assuming this should actually say:
"For views integration, make sure you have Views module enabled then create a view and choose 'jCarousel Lite View' from the 'Style' options under 'Basic Settings' for your view."

Hi there ;-)
ok: I did a completly new installation on the same server in the same directory ... NOW it works with all ajax effects.
why? I don't know ... a view hints:
- installtion before: I allready copied a lot of modules before installing ... maybe this and one of them produced a conflict!?
- i acitvated clean urls after activating views ... the second time, I did it before
that's what i can think of ...
thank you

@zweilicht: are you referring to the views integration of version 6?
#10
Doesn't work for me, either.
#11
I got this problem too. Besides waiting for it fix, another other alternative solution ?
#12
sorry, my last post was ment for another issue! ... ;-) had problems to get all the ajax effects of views
... and yes, can't see any views options vor jcarousel lite in version 6

Same here. Looks like there's hooks missing in the views integration module (off the top of my head).

I would agree with Coyote... I compared it with the Views Slideshow module and a lot of the hooks are different or missing.
For instance in jcarousellite_views.module, I changed the hook function 'jcarousellite_views_views_style_plugins' to 'views_jcarousellite_views_plugins' and added the parameters that views_slideshow set in their code... was able to at least get the style option to show up on the edit view form. But enabling it did nothing except set it back to 'Unformatted'.
It would be nice to have the views integration of this module. I have used the standalone jquery plugin a lot because its so light weight compared to other options and very easy to add css to make it pretty.

http://drupal.org/project/scrollable check it out - works great!

Not trying to underestimate this lovely module, just suggesting to use viewscarousel till its view integration issue is fixed.
The same can be achieved with http://www.drupal.org/project/viewscarousel
There is a great video tutorial link on the same page. Although the documentation is well written.
Its fairly simple and worked fantastic for me.
Good Luck
