I have an ecommerce site and thought this module would be very useful in the front page. I was wondering if I could send users to a particular taxonomy page or a product page from the various images. For example, I have three images in the slider. The first image is a hot new product, the second image is a group of products, and the third image is a best selling product. How can I create a link that would send users who clicked on the first image to the hot new product page? How can I create a link that would send users who clicked on the second image to the taxonomy page and so forth? I see a lot of popular ecommerce sites that can do this and was interested in knowing if this module has the capability to do the same.

You can create a node reference field or a text field in the content type of your slide. Then simply use this field as the Nivo slide link in the row style options of the view.

Hello,

I've tried the suggestion to add a text field and use this field as link but it doesn't work (in my case).

Pls check: www.goeletteinternational.com

On the frontpage is a nivo slider with some new projects (images). That slider works perfectly but I want to link the image to the content of that project. (not to the node of the image or the image itself but to a separate node).
If you take a look at the site you'll see what I mean: e.g. if you click (in the French part of the site) on the slider image of "the grilles sudoku" then you should be referred to: http://www.goeletteinternational.com/fr/content/le-temps-des-jeux-0
But I can not get this arranged. I'm a bit desperate as I tried (almost) everything: add link image / link / text as field in content type, customized the view...
What am I doing wrong??? Any ideas or help? Thank you very much!
