What am i doing wrong? (Matrix related) ***Sanity check***

ivyone 2 Jul 2012 18:09 problem, active

Hi Low,

i need a sanity check because i'm slowly going creazy.

I have a LV Matrix field with 2 cells (1 file, 1 txt). Only the following code in a template

 
 {exp:low_variables:parse var="lv_homepage_slideshow" multiple="yes"} 
  <ximg src="{file}"> 
  {lv_homepage_slideshow:count}|{count} 
 {/exp:low_variables:parse} 
 

 
  <ximg src="zzzzzzzzzzz.jpg"> 
  {lv_homepage_slideshow:count}|{count} 

  <ximg src="dddddddddd.jpg"> 
  {lv_homepage_slideshow:count}|{count} 

  <ximg src="eeeeeeeeee.jpg"> 
  {lv_homepage_slideshow:count}|{count}

   If lv_homepage_slideshow is a Matrix variable, then use all the parameters and variables you would normally use in a Matrix channel field.
   
   So, taking a look at the Matrix docs and say you have a variable called "speakers", the first code example of said docs in a Variable context would be:
   
   

   {exp:low_variables:parse var="speakers"} 
      <h2>{speaker_name}</h2> 
      <img src="{speaker_photo}" alt="{speaker_name}"/> 
      <p>{speaker_description}</p> 
    {/exp:low_variables:parse}

   
   
   ...and so on.
