})(jQuery);
And save !
- Second page :
- Chose the title
- Chose the position : in the index
- Paste this code :
- Code:
$(document).ready(function(){
$('#one').liteAccordion({
onActivate : function() {
this.find('figcaption').fadeOut();
},
slideCallback : function() {
this.find('figcaption').fadeIn();
},
autoPlay : true,
pauseOnHover : true,
theme : 'dark',
rounded : true,
enumerateSlides : true
}).find('figcaption:first').show();
});
And save !
By the way, remember to enable the javascript management 
3. Enter the HTML code in the homepage of the forum :
Go to :
| Administration Panel Display Homepage Generalities Homepage message |
Paste this code :
- Code:
<div id="one" class="accordion">
<ol>
<li>
<h2><span>Slide One</span></h2>
<div id="s1"></div>
</li>
<li>
<h2><span>Slide Two</span></h2>
<div id="s2"></div>
</li>
<li>
<h2><span>Slide Three</span></h2>
<div id="s3"></div>
</li>
<li>
<h2><span>Slide Four</span></h2>
<div id="s4"></div>
</li>
<li>
<h2><span>Slide Five</span></h2>
<div id="s5"></div>
</li>
</ol>
<noscript>
<p>Please enable JavaScript to get the full experience.</p>
</noscript>
</div>
And now you can change the slides and add as many div as you want ! You can also add HTML codes as you want (with links for example)
4. Add the CSS code :
Go to :
| Administration Panel Display Pictures and colors Colors CSS Stylesheet |
Paste this code :
- Code:
.accordion {
text-align:left;
font:'Helvetica Neue', Verdana, Arial, sans-serif;
}
.accordion ol {
position: relative;
overflow: hidden;
height: 100%;
margin: 0;
padding: 0;
list-style-type: none;
}
.accordion li > h2 {

}
.accordion li > h2 span { display: block; padding-right: 8%; text-align: right; height: 90%; margin-top: 5px; }

.accordion li > h2:hover { cursor: pointer; }
.accordion li > div { height: 100%; position: absolute; top: 0; z-index: 1; overflow: hidden; background: white; }
.accordion noscript p { padding: 10px; margin: 0; background: white; }
/****************************************** Basic */
.basic li > h2 { background: #333; color: white; line-height: 1.8em; }
.basic li > div h3 { margin: 15px 10px; }
.basic li > div p { margin: 10px; font-size: 14px; }
/****************************************** Dark */

.dark li > h2 { background: #030303; font-size: 16px; line-height: 2.7em; text-shadow: 0 -1px 0 #030303; }
.dark li > h2 span { background: #353535; color: white; }
.dark li > h2 b { background: #353535; color: #030303; font-size: 20px; text-shadow: -1px 1px 0 #5b5b5b; }
.dark h2.selected span, .dark h2.selected span:hover { background: #434343; background: -webkit-gradient(linear, left top, right top, color-stop(0, #353535), color-stop(1, #555555)); background: -moz-linear-gradient(top left, #353535 0%, #555555 100%); }
.dark h2.selected b { background: #434343; }
.dark li > div { background: #030303; margin-left: 5px; }
/*************************************** Rounded */
.rounded { -webkit-border-radius: 6px; -moz-border-radius: 6px; border-radius: 6px; }
.rounded li > h2 span { -webkit-border-radius: 4px; -moz-border-radius: 4px; border-radius: 4px; }
/***************************************** Light */
/**************************************** Stitch */
#s1 {
background:url("http://url de l'image.jpg") no-repeat #030303;
}
#s2 {
background:url("http://url de l'image.jpg") no-repeat #030303;
}
#s3 {
background:url("http://url de l'image.jpg") no-repeat #030303;
}
#s4 {
background:url("http://url de l'image.jpg") no-repeat #030303;
}
#s5 {
background:url("http://url de l'image.jpg") no-repeat #030303;
}
You just have to put the URL of the images in each div :
- Code:
#s1 {
background:url("http://url de l'image.jpg")
}
You can add as many div as you want ! 
You can change the aspect of the slides by using the CSS
... And congratulations, you've made your own personnalized index !
