No Images Displayed, and IE Gray Box (FIXED)

Thank you so much! I changed those lines and it works like a charm now.

Automatically closed -- issue fixed for 2 weeks with no activity.

@quindio

Thanks for pointing out, it is not always easy for users to find existing solutions for issues.
I made the reference to the FAQ on ddblock.myalbums.biz in red in the major tutorial pages and added to look at the trouble shooting part of the faq.

I hope users can find known solutions for issues better now.

@jiangqiqi77

I see one pager-item image.
The slideshow needs at least two nodes to work.

Hope this helps you further, please let me know.

@ dunklea
Please have a look at the faq question: Images not showing, only grey box.

If you can not solve it yourself, attach the result of the drupal_set_message lines, so I can help you better.

Hope this helps you further, please let me know.

#11

Did you enable the Content Permissions module (CCK - submodule)?

Did you give permission for the field you use in your slideshow block?

Can you send the content of the template.php file?

Can you send a link to the site?

Please provide this information so I can help you better.

Hope this helps you further, please let me know.

Thank you for the detailed information.

You don't need to enable the Content permission module, only if you want to give permission per field.

The template.php file looks ok.

Did you add the image_field in the content of the view?

Can you send the preview of the SQL statement in your view?

Hope this helps you further, please let me know.

#15

In the preview of the SQL result in the view, seems like you don't have a field for your image.

Can you give admin access to your site, so i can help you better?

You can send it to my contact form.

Thanks very much!

#19

In your preprocess functions you need to use the themename you use so the preprocess functions become:

after making the changes, clear the cache at administer > site configuration > performance

Hope this helps you further, please let me know.

Hi,
I have the same problem.
Grey box + invalid argument... error in the advanced dd block configuration.

I posted more than 1 node, set all permissions (even at filesystem level), read all faqs and tried to apply the solutions given in other issues.

My site is http://naty.netsons.org/untaxiper/

See attached file for template.
Thank you for you help

#22 the name of the view is case sensitive:

You use:

for your view, but in the preprocess functions you use:

Hope this helps you further, please let me know.

I had a look at the site.

In the preprocess functions you need to change

Hope this helps you further, please let me know.

Hi!
I've been trying to solve the same problem that everyone here faced (can't see any images in my slideshow, only the title of theme) and after trying all the solutions posted here I couldn't manage to resolve my problem. I need some help please!
I already tried to change
node_data_field_image_field_image_fid
to
node_data_field_pager_item_text_field_image_fid
and the other way around but still can't see my ddblock images.
I've attached my template.php and here is a link to my website http://luandanoticias.com
The slide show is at the bottom of the page
thanks!

ok you can now see the debug lines in the page. here is a new template.txt because i think the one that i sent before was wrong.

It worked! thanks a lot. I think something in the text area is missing, i will try to figure it out.

Great it works now!
Changed issue title

#37 You really need to give more information.

Tips:

You can search the issue queue for other similar issues, search on all issues (also the closed ones).
This way you can find direct answers. The module also has a FAQ page.

You can read more in the Issue queue handbook to make you posts in issue queues and your journey with Drupal more fruitful.

In your case the image field name should be: node_data_field_image_field_image_fid.

I changed 4 x
(node_data_field_pager_item_text_field_image_fid) into (node_data_field_image_field_image_fid)

I added a <?php tag at the top of your template file. (maybe you just did not copy it).

Attached the template.php__2.txt file.

Needs to be renamed to template.php again.

Hope this helps you further, please let me know.

@41 you have a link to the Internet site, so I can help you better?

The ddblock module works with RTL Internet sites.

In the template.php file

in the part:

needs to be changed 2x in

Hope this helps you further, please let me know.

Hello,

First of all, thanks for all your help and the great job developing this module. I have been some time trying to make this module work without success, and apparently I don't have any of the mistakes above... which is to say that probably I am making a more basic mistake; I would appreciate any insight. After following as closely as I could all the instructions I am just seeing the node titles on the page specified to show the slides and a piece of php code. This is the website page: http://krs.kadchi.com/node/11.
And my template.php:
(Since I don't have any formal training as programmer, I don't quite understand the part about uncommenting)

Hello,

First of all, thanks for all your help and the great job developing this module. I have been some time trying to make this module work without success, and apparently I don't have any of the mistakes above... which is to say that probably I am making a more basic mistake; I would appreciate any insight. After following as closely as I could all the instructions I am just seeing the node titles on the page specified to show the slides and a piece of php code. This is the website page: http://krs.kadchi.com/node/11.
And my template.php:
(Since I don't have any formal training as programmer, I don't quite understand the part about uncommenting)

Hello,

First of all, thanks for all your help and the great job developing this module. I have been some time trying to make this module work without success, and apparently I don't have any of the mistakes above... which is to say that probably I am making a more basic mistake; I would appreciate any insight. After following as closely as I could all the instructions I am just seeing the node titles on the page specified to show the slides and a piece of php code. This is the website page: http://krs.kadchi.com/node/11.

*P.S: This is embarrassing. I wasn't even able to post properly.

Hi there... I'm having this same problem and have checked all of the solutions used above and none are working.

My theme name is inserted into template.php with correct capitalization. My image field comes up in the debug information as node_data_field_pager_item_text_field_image_fid, which matches the one in template.php (node_data_field_pager_item_text_field_image_fid). My view name is "news_items" and is correctly capitalized in the template.php. All are below... please help...

Debug:

Views SQL:

#55

Thanks so much for your help ppblaauw. After reading all these threads I'm really impressed with your dedication to making this module great.

I don't have any java errors. I do have FCKeditor installed. Should I try excluding it from being an editor for any of the slideshow fields?

Here's where the slideshow appears (only the front page). The debug text is still displaying: http://www.letsgowild.ca/

---
Edit:

I deleted the existing News item content I had created and then configured the "slide text" and "body" fields so they didn't use FCKeditor anymore. I created two new news item nodes, but sadly still no images in the slideshow.

#57

I disabled the clock and it works!

You are a genius. I would have never looked for that. Thank you so much.

Automatically closed -- issue fixed for 2 weeks with no activity.

#61 Please have a look at the faq question: Images not showing, only grey box.

If you can not solve it yourself, attach the result of the drupal_set_message lines, so I can help you better.

Hope this helps you further, please let me know.

Tip: when you post issues in an issue with status closed, they will not show up in my screen. Just by coincidence I found this new post in a closed issue. You need to set the issue to active again, so It shows up in the issue queue by default (all open issues).

i figured out the answer to my own problem... i did not have gradient-blue30p installed properly in my themes folder... after i installed it correctly, the DD block shows up!

Im using an imagecache preset in the view.
Are there any patches needed?
Thx, Seppe

Seppe,

You can select the image-cache preset in the configuration page of the slideshow.
Do you have a link to your Internet site?

Hope this helps you further, please let me know.

#15 fixed it for me.

The docs recommended the reverse, but I suppose it's one or the other.

node_data_field_image_field_image_fid
or
node_data_field_pager_item_text_field_image_fid

Thanks for a cool module!

Please attach template.php file, the result of the debug lines and a link to the Internet site.

#75, Sorry, I can't give support anymore for commercial themes from other theme builders.
You can try the theme builder where you purchased the theme.
