Im working on a Jquery timeline bases on the article below: https://codyhouse.co/gem/horizontal-timeline/
Im trying to adjust the script so that the prev/next arrows have the same behaviour as the date events. So when user clicks on prev or next the timeline will stay but the next event is displayed.
I cant get it to work though. It would be much appreciated if someone can help me with this.
Thank you all for your time.
This is the code i am using:
jQuery(document).ready(function($){
var timelines = $('.cd-horizontal-timeline'),
eventsMinDistance = 60;
(timelines.length > 0) && initTimeline(timelines);
function initTimeline(timelines) {
timelines.each(function(){
var timeline = $(this),
timelineComponents = {};
//cache timeline components
timelineComponents['timelineWrapper'] = timeline.find('.events-wrapper');
timelineComponents['eventsWrapper'] = timelineComponents['timelineWrapper'].children('.events');
timelineComponents['fillingLine'] = timelineComponents['eventsWrapper'].children('.filling-line');
timelineComponents['timelineEvents'] = timelineComponents['eventsWrapper'].find('a');
timelineComponents['timelineDates'] = parseDate(timelineComponents['timelineEvents']);
timelineComponents['eventsMinLapse'] = minLapse(timelineComponents['timelineDates']);
timelineComponents['timelineNavigation'] = timeline.find('.cd-timeline-navigation');
timelineComponents['eventsContent'] = timeline.children('.events-content');
//assign a left postion to the single events along the timeline
setDatePosition(timelineComponents, eventsMinDistance);
//assign a width to the timeline
var timelineTotWidth = setTimelineWidth(timelineComponents, eventsMinDistance);
//the timeline has been initialize - show it
timeline.addClass('loaded');
//detect click on the next arrow
timelineComponents['timelineNavigation'].on('click', '.next', function(event){
event.preventDefault();
updateSlide(timelineComponents, timelineTotWidth, 'next');
});
//detect click on the prev arrow
timelineComponents['timelineNavigation'].on('click', '.prev', function(event){
event.preventDefault();
updateSlide(timelineComponents, timelineTotWidth, 'prev');
});
//detect click on the a single event - show new event content
timelineComponents['eventsWrapper'].on('click', 'a', function(event){
event.preventDefault();
timelineComponents['timelineEvents'].removeClass('selected');
$(this).addClass('selected');
updateOlderEvents($(this));
updateFilling($(this), timelineComponents['fillingLine'], timelineTotWidth);
updateVisibleContent($(this), timelineComponents['eventsContent']);
});
//on swipe, show next/prev event content
timelineComponents['eventsContent'].on('swipeleft', function(){
var mq = checkMQ();
( mq == 'mobile' ) && showNewContent(timelineComponents, timelineTotWidth, 'next');
});
timelineComponents['eventsContent'].on('swiperight', function(){
var mq = checkMQ();
( mq == 'mobile' ) && showNewContent(timelineComponents, timelineTotWidth, 'prev');
});
//keyboard navigation
$(document).keyup(function(event){
if(event.which=='37' && elementInViewport(timeline.get(0)) ) {
showNewContent(timelineComponents, timelineTotWidth, 'prev');
