I have not had much luck with my original posting so I figure I would give it another go under a different heading.
I am trying to integrate an update-able Slideshow Pro slideshow into a site’s main template. The integration and functionality was not a problem as long as it’s running with a static xml file. My problem arises when I try to link an xml template that I created within EE. I’m trying to give my client the ability to change out the images playing within the slideshow by using EE. I’ve tried numerous methods including changing various paths to the xml file, but nothing seems to work - the swf is generated but no images are pulled in.
Is this even possible? Am I going about this the right way? Does EE give you this ability? I know I’ve seen this being mentioned before but I have no clue in achieving it under the EE ” way of doing things “. Why is something this basic suddenly have to turn into a hack fest?
Any help is greatly appreciated as my back is up-against the wall with a deadline quickly closing in. I would be more than happy to PM a link to the test site and any other relevant information as needed.
Thanks!
