[OPEN-ILS-GENERAL] Mobius Book Carousel Demoed at the EG Conference this year

[Blake Henderson]

Jesse,

Did you happen to get the code from Github?

https://github.com/mcoia/mobius_evergreen/tree/master/bookbag_update

There is a folder structure there intended to match the folder structure 
in /openils

/openils/var/web/opac/skin/default/js/carousel
and
/openils/var/web/templates/opac/parts

The various files belong to various places. If you are using a template 
override, book_carousel.tt2 needs to be in the base template folder 
otherwise the template toolkit breaks.

Be sure and edit book_carousel.tt2 and replace the numbers with your 
bookbag id numbers.

If you are getting nothing, then you might need to inspect the resulting 
html page and look for
<div id="hidden_bb_info" class="hide_me">

Check to see if that div has any content. If not, the javascript stuff 
isn't working. If it does, then take a careful look at your CSS. The 
jquery plugin jcarousel is picky about the CSS. If you just use the CSS 
example from Github, it should work but it never hurts to double check.

I would be happy to take a look at what you have.
