Is there any way of using the Ad Rotator module to rotate Web Apps?

[it_bandwagon]

I would like to use the Web Apps module to sell advertising on a site. Is there a way of using the Ad Rotator module to rotate those advertisement Web Apps?

Hi, you do not use it to do that.

You have two options.

1. Insert a web app module as a random item option and thus every page load you get a random web app item.

OR

2. Use javascript to load all web app items and fade them in and out between each other.

Hi Liam,

I would like to do the second option - can you please explain how I can do this? I have setup my News Items as a web app on this page http://www.sunnysideinstantlawn.com.au/ but I don't want it to change when the page is reloaded.  I would like it to be more of a slider. I have looked through the BC Gurus tutorials and cannot find how to rotate the web app items. 

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks,

Tammy

You have put the module which is a random web app item.

The code you did for the banner, you just the same thing, make a new call and target a web app module rendering the latest 5 items. Almost exactly like the banner.

I thought I would have to do that manually – can’t believe there isn’t an easy way in BC.

Well this is custom design features really. BC gives you the data and you present it how you want to. All part of web design

Thanks Liam.  I am about to have another go at this.

Hi Liam,

I have put the code in for the banner but not sure how to target a web app module rendering the latest 5 items.  How do I learn this stuff?  http://www.sunnysideinstantlawn.com.au/test-1
