Can you have multiple images per banner? Can they rotate/transition one image to the next? Can an image be made clickable to a page or another site?

coolestdude1 commentedSo yes you can have more than one image per url now that means that you have to either use my random or tell me of another feature you want implemented.
Yes they can rotate but i am not great at java script so some ones going to have to show me how to do that.
In the next release i have added in the link portion of the display you wanted so you will be able to click on the banner to take you some where else.
I have move this to feature request because a lot of this needs to be written.
But i am not assigning this one to me because someone else may come along and help.

coolestdude1 commentedjust so that it is known if you go to #968070: API request for other module integration
and rank that up or promote it in some way it might speed this along

BManuel commentedHi,
I think to make it easier, there should be multiple forms to add multiple images or atleast convert present to a textarea form.
So each seperate image is a new line.
Right now, using the comma method just causes error and it's not clear exactly where the comma should go.
Thanks for this module, but without the multiple images capability the usefulness is somehow limited.

coolestdude1 commentedThat is odd hmmm ok I am going to try to help you here by showing you a working example.
See attached image of my site's settings.
It is working on that site just fine, can you tell me what yours looks like or post a pic?
Yeah I agree once i get this upload stuff settled i can add javascript and make a multi image uploader that can auto handle the images and formats.

smokinggoat commentedHi, I'm curious about the same issue, but in the D7 version. Ultimately I want a random banner to rotate through 3-4 images.
On my install, when I'm creating a banner (e.g. admin/structure/banners/edit/%) I am only given the option of uploading one image. If I create multiple random banners, only the first one is used. I have looked for a Readme but could not find one, so I'm stumped how this should work. Do I upload multiple images into my image folder, then use the "Existing image" option (with commas, somehow?).

LagPRO-dupe commentedsmokinggoat, did you ever figure this out?

coolestdude1 commentedYeah sorry about the uploader, I am slowly doing more things in Drupal 7 now as I am converting my other module over to it. The way to do it right now as a work around is upload all those images and test each and everyone is accessible to the anon user. Next get all of the in site urls and comma separate them: as a rough example sites/default/files/images/1.jpg,sites/default/files/images/2.jpg,sites/default/files/images/3.jpg add that to the field without the uploader so just strait text using the option "Use Existing Image(s)". Then keep the mode on normal as the others don't work yet, make sure that your url follows the correct pattern for random. So for another rough example make the url "aboutus!" for placing the banner on the aboutus page. Then place the block in the content section or header section of your page on the correct theme. After all of this the banner should be displayed on that page and every time you refresh the random number generator will pick an image. Soon I will be adding the options to the mode and making this a whole bunch easier, but my problem will always be time so I have not gotten around to it.
