Something went wrong when adding slideshows widget to a page

[ffechner]

Hi, on an Fork 3.6.6 I added the slideshows module to quickly add an easily manageable slideshow and run into the following problem:

• I created the Slideshow
• added some images
• added the widget to an page
• and got a smile "Something went wrong." - bummer. Fork mailed me an stack trace but I couldn't really figured out what the problem is exactly. It seems the module tries to load the cached template (there is none cached or compiled - folders are empty but writable! every thing else works..). Here ist the start of the Trace:

The error message is trying to tell you that there are no items (images) to assign to the template variable "items"

[ffechner]

But there are actually 5 images assigned to that slideshow including a title and a caption / description. the slideshow as set image dimensions is from type "basic" which is the default template that comes with the module.

Yep, but the frontend doesn't show/load them. Work you're way up.

Look at the getData() function, add some var_dump() calls to see when thing go wrong...

OK, stupid fix. I clicked every module association in settings > modules > slideshows on and saved this and off and saved again, removed and added the widget to the page again and it worked then. Strange behavior :) Is there an documentation about the settings for the module and how to work with these associations and what to set / write models... for that e.a. an example?

[bart-webleads]

Not sure what you mean, but there is no documenation that I know of... (I always look in de the code)
