Free Show: Following a post in the forum, there was some confusion as to how we make these cool effects apply in addition RapidWeaver pages.
So this very short video should help clear this up by showing you how to add a RW Blog page into Stacks , add the FlowBox stack and some Pluskit magic which has been covered here before ;)
I have already applied a Stacks page with no stacks and a Blog Page , in the Blog Page I have made a link to a movie file , so lets get weaving and last of all enjoy the show
If you have other stacks, the pluskit import still applies .
SymfoniP the team (editor: and one of the co-founders of supportcasts too ::chuckle::) behind the popular MP3 stack library have just released a new stack library that will make adding video with a lightbox super-simple in conjunction with the flash player from FlowPlayer and the RapidWeaver Stacks plug-in from YourHead.com.
Functionality:
- one-time configuration
- Adjustable Opacity and Colour of Overlay background
- Automatic Flash player for all mp4, m4v and FLV videos links, if that sounds to awesome just watch our video to learn more :)
- Autohide of Flash playback bar and full-screen option
- Commercial license key and logo for branding the player yourself
As a special offer to all supportcasts visitors for the next 7 days till April 9th 2009, SymfoniP are offering a ‘WePayTheTax‘ discount code giving you a nice little discount off the purchase of this stack library, if you want to pick up the MP3 Stack at the same time the discount will apply only bundled with the Flowplayer Stack so there’s a double saving.
Watch the video to learn more :) or also visit the demo site .
The guys at CRM Technik (under the umbrella of SymfoniP) have been real busy adding new options to enhance the solo MP3 player Stack library and making it even easier to add a Flash player to your RapidWeaver pages with Stacks- yay. . Great new options inlude
- zero to hero configuration, one time only setup
- support of colors for Player as far as it can go with the Stacks HUD
- multiple player support without any fuss
- plays nice with ExtraContent enabled Themes too
Great for a band site or anything where you want a bit of zing to your music sharing. Of course this enhanced MP3 Stack library makes it real easy to put together a great looking page with RapidWeaver and the Stacks plugin from YourHead.com.
All yours for the princely sum of $5 this includes all Taxes – what a bargain! I should add that it is only available at this special price at SupportCasts.com
Watch the new MP3 stack in action (screencast) put together by Kevin who also leads the team at CRM Technik over in Germany.
Tested with IE7, IE6 FF 3, Safari and Flash 10 . Please note that having 10 or more individual Flash objects on your page will increase page size. Mixing other Flash elements or getting creative with Blocks, PlusKit with the MP3 Stack is not advised. :)
This solo stack has now been dis-continued and replaced by the enhanced fully automated MP3 Stack see most recent blog post.
This new stack has customizable colors and neat auto-configuration to use in your RapidWeaver Stacks Pages
—————————————-
Stacks is a brand new plug-in for RapidWeaver from YourHead.com. This plug-in allows you to have fluid layout control for any type (flash, images, columns, text …you name it) of content you want to add to your RapidWeaver pages.
Stacks is currently in private beta right now , but the team at supportcasts got a sneak peek into this first beta release and delivered this screencast to you . In the screencast, I build a page that consists of floating images with text, columns, carousel, accordion, photo slideshow and a youtube embed. Wow that’s a tall order but you will see it is super simple to do together with PlusKit from LogHound ( we are big fans of this plugin and you will see why)
A more detailed Stacks screencast will be produced when it is out of beta.
Enjoy the show :)
