Firstly brilliant, excellent mod does what it says on the tin!
I have 30 back issues of a magazine I would like to display using this, ok so far no problem..but I'm new to joomla and I want this to show up in my browse product page instead of the products in that category, I'm sure this is easy when you know how, can you help?
At the moment I am having to put it into one of the predefined module positions i.e. left or right etc and I don't have a module position in the right place.
thanks in advance

I am very sorry for not responding sooner. Unfortunately the browse category page is a Virtuemart theme. There are packages out there for changing the VM theme (we are close to publishing one ourselves), but I don't know of any that will scroll the products. I will talk to my associate and, if he knows of anything, I'll have him reply to your post.

Again, I'm sorry for the delay.

Hello!

Thanks for using the scroller. Let's back up a second so that I understand. You want the scroller to show up on the page somewhere when an individual product is displayed, correct?

If that is the case, then one way to do that would be to use the Joomla {loadposition} command. This is a tutorial here:

www.dart-creations.com/joomla/tips-and-tricks/10---load-module-positions-mambot.html

VM has a setting to let it fire plugins like it was content. Set that to yes, and then at the top/bottom/side of each product page, just type in the code:
{loadposition user4}

where user4 would be any module position you want to show (meaning the module position the scroller is set to. Preferably a module position not used in your template.)

Don't forget to enable the loadposition plugin, or this won't work.

You could probably embed the loadposition command in your VM theme as well so that you wouldn't have to do it in every product. I haven't tried embedding a plugin call like that, though, so there might be some code needed.

Keep in touch.

Thanks guys! All working now, followed your advice Glen and it worked instantly. I have the scroller displaying all back issues and when you click on the thumbnail the full product details appear above the scroller allowing you to add to cart and view the scroller at the same time, just the solution I needed.
Thanks again really appreciate the support and advice.
