Hey Guys,
has there been an update on this ? Already purchased FPSS a few times now and still waiting on responsive design.

Hello

Yes, as of March 11, 2014 there is NOT a responsive Frontpage Slideshow that is available.  Which of course as you all know is not good for us.  I also am a new user to purchase such a great program but cannot use the product.

Maybe next year it will be responsive.  My next purchase will be in 2015.  Lets give them 1 more year to get this done.

We all know it is not an easy task and they need the time to figure out how to make this happen.

I would say this product is dead. Although they will still sell it here, it is not even listed on the JED anymore. Without this component being responsive, its pretty useless in 2014. Their silence on this thread speaks volumes...

I see you just edited your post. So if its your business decision to not list your commercial products in the JED, it doesn't change what I originally stated. I personally find that to be a foolish decision as the JED is the number one place where prospective customers would seek out a suitable product.

As for quality software not getting built in a week or two, I agree. But it also doesn't take 1 1/2 years. Since this post www.joomlaworks.net/forum/frontpage-slideshow-for-joomla/12675-responsive-design?start=10#49069 said you were working on it back then. No one from your organization has commented on this thread since that time, so there was no reason to believe that the product would ever be made responsive.

And it was listed in the JED ages ago (like back in 2007) - we deliberately don't list our commercial extensions in the JED because reviews are not accurate. Just check what people post for our free extensions. Most our everything BUT reviews.

As for v4.x, the update got postponed because a) we put more weight on K2 and b) we essentially redesigned all frontend slideshow layouts. Realistically speaking, we'll see v4.x being released around May.

Quality software doesn't get built in a week or two.

Hi there..

Any news on this issue...
all the items on our new site are responsive except for fpss.. :(

Here is another new user looking for responsive design. PLEASE get us there. Has I know before purchase I would have waited.

Thanks

I am more interested in seeing version 4.0.0 right now with the new features and templates. I hope the new features worth all the waiting.

PS: I really want to see a template with tiles.

So we've established that there is still no responsive design built in to FPSS. But is there a way to tinker with code somewhere to make it responsive? I read an earlier post saying this:
fpss-container {
max-width: 1000px;
width: 100%; }
.fpss-container .slides img {
max-width: 100%;
height: auto; }

But does this actually work? And if so, what file does it need to go into? If anyone has a way to manually code it to make it responsive i would love to hear. I have a number of clients using FPSS but will look for a different component if there's no way to make it responsive.

I wouldn't bother. Besides tweaking the display space of the component itself, you still need all of the media queries to get it to adapt to various screen sizes. I would look for another component that is still being actively developed. We're leaning towards Raxo Carousel right now.
