Hi everybody,

I have an issue that I don’t realize how to solve it:

My mirror has several modules, but particularly has MMM-ImageSlideshow to show images in an iterative way. Everything works fine, but now, I need to pass the images shown by ImageSlides with a button action (show previous or next image).

At first, I tried to instance some ImageSlides modules (each module showing only one picture) and I tried to manage the visualization of each module with MMM-Carousel without success, because all instances of ImageSlides were shown in the mirror at the same time (not only one at time).

So, I researched in the 3rd-party-modules but I didn’t find anything that can fit to my requirement.

In summary, I’m looking for some way to pass images (previous and next) by a button action. I would be very nice to me if some of you have an idea how to do this. Also, if someone want to share a config file as an example I would be very grateful.

Thank you very much.

Regards!
Agustin.

@banbutcher so, there were two problems

0 cycle time
and carouselId

I had my brain screwed on crooked for carouselId.

suppose you had multiple instances of the same module name in config.js, showing different things on different slides.

when u define the slides, u use the module ‘name’, but in this case, name is not enough.

so, in the module definitions themselves u add another unique identifier, carouselId: somestring. the value can be anything.

in their config:{} section, that is where carousel module will look for ‘carouselId’

in the slide definition, when u come to that module to be displayed, instead of putting the name in quotes, you need a little structure

{ name: "module name", carouselId:"samevalue_added_to_module_config" } ,

that way the carousel module can tell which module instance should be shown
