Here is example how you can extend and reuse your own code.
I saw at cu3er site cool gallery effects and I thought why not implement it with magento.
So I used my old gallery module and add some stuff.
This module is based on Magento custom designed gallery extended with:
- /app/code/local/Inchoo/GallFront/controllers/Cu3erController.php
- /app/code/local/Inchoo/GallFront/controllers/XmlController.php
- /app/design/frontend/default/default/template/gallery/cu3er.phtml
- /app/design/frontend/default/default/template/gallery/output.phtml
- and files needed for cu3er to run in /skin/frontend/default/default/cu3er
- database tables remains the same
Main part is how you render your xml file.
That happeds in /app/code/local/Inchoo/GallFront/controllers/XmlController.php in indexAction().
Sample of xml is commented and my simple code is bellow.
Output of xml file is at: http://www.yourwebsite.com/inchoogallery/xml
For advanced manipulation with flash see documentation on cu3er website.
Advanced documentation for cu3er you can find on http://www.progressivered.com/cu3er/docs/
You can try to extend gallery tables with new fields which will handle data with effects.
Final result is at http://www.yourwebsite.com/inchoogallery/cu3er.
(For example you can try to use this module for category header images.)
Code is here.
Enjoy coding!



Thank you for providing this! It’s great timing as I recently stumbled across Cu3er and wanted to integrate it into Magento… or at least see how it looks to make sure it’s not overwhelming / distracting.
Does it work with magento 1.4.1.0?
After I installed this extension, it shows me ”
There has been an error processing your request
Exception printing is disabled by default for security reasons.
Error log record number: 403747219″
Can you tell me how to slove the problem or how to uninstalled it?
Thank you.
Hi inchooes..
Why don’t you put this module as magentoconnect Extension.
Thanks
Wow – this works pretty well!
The one integration I would LOVE is if you could assign a URL to each image. Is there any easy way to do that?
Thank you!
Also, how would I turn on AutoPlay?
Thanks!
I am interested in implementing different instances cu3er in all the category headers on my site. But the thing is I didn’t actually understand what this code does. Even then I installed this code but whenever I go to http://www.syberplace.com/inchoogallery/cu3er/ I get a 404 error. Any help would be appreciated.
how do i completly uninstall cu3er from my magento site? i hate the starting logo. thanks
