Category Slideshow on External website

vaio2006

I was wondering how you put the slideshows (for categories) onto external website?

I looked at: http://www.kenmellottphotography.com/gallery/2380563_sKnje
and saw that you can do slideshows for categories. I looked at the code, and it didn't make sense to me.

I figured out how to do INDIVIDUAL albums thanks to: http://wiki.smugmug.com/display/SmugMug/Flash+Slideshow
I also loooked at other tutorials such as http://dgrin.smugmug.com/gallery/3624147

I still can't figure out how to do SLIDESHOWS for CATEGORIES...

Can anyone help?

The source for the flash slideshow can either be a gallery or it can be a feed. A list of the available feeds (which you would then put in a slideshow using the parameter feedURL=) can be seen in the wiki at http://wiki.smugmug.com/display/SmugMug/Feeds+Examples.

The example you gave in your initial post is just a gallery that the owner has locked into slideshow style.

um.. so what would my code look like?

I used the code indicated on the top of:
http://wiki.smugmug.com/display/SmugMug/Flash+Slideshow

I changed AlbumID=2504559 and replaced it with feedURL=(then put one of the RSS feeds)

but i guess this isn't working...

If you want help, we need a link to your site. And also a link to wherever you've put the slideshow code.

Your feedURL is incorrect. I corrected it and tested from a blog entry (that I didn't publish since they are not my photos, just wanted to make sure that the feed was correct).



Try using this within your parameters:

feedURL=http://api.smugmug.com/hack/feed.mg%3FType=userkeyword%2526NickName=asij%2526Data=hsNOW
