    Hello

    Ive been handed over a page that is managed by MODx and now they want to update the slides on the fron page. I can find the images on the server but I cannot find the code to change the images (instead of called bob.jpg I want to call them tom.jpg, for example) or even add some.

    I see a div has been declared called "slideshow" Ive searched thru MODx and I found nothing. I downloaded the entire site thru FTP and searched for slideshow but still found nothing.

    Can someone help me? Coming from Magento to this, I thought would be the same but Im having problems.

    Any questions, please ask. Thank you

      Hello Riah,

      What version of MODX are you using? MODX Evolution (1.*) or MODX Revolution (2.*). If it's Revolution, you should edit the front page, which you can find on the left side. Once the edit-screen is loaded, you should click on 'Template Variables'. If the previous developer did things right, you should be able to find a field somewhere in that tab which should allow you to edit those images.

      If this doesn't work I can help you out through Skype. It's better one on one. I think you're looking at the wrong place wink

        From what I am seeing, it is version 1.0.2

        I looked thru the Template Variables but there was nothing I could remotely find to a slideshow reference.

        Yes, I would really appriciate it if you could help me via Skype. Thanks a lot smiley I am writing this message at 08:39 Thursday the 8th of August of 2013. Just so we know the time differences smiley
