Slides is a slideshow plugin for jQuery that is built with simplicity in mind. Packed with a useful set of features to help novice and advanced developers alike create elegant and user-friendly slideshows. It can be used within articles as well as theme files. It does not modify any other images or galleries.
Release Page: Slides Plugin Homepage
Live Demo: Slides Demonstration
Only standard version is included in the current release.
After installing the plugin just write something like:
[slides]
[slidesslide linkurl="LinkURL" linktitle="LinkTitle" imgurl="FullPathOfImage" imgalt="ImgAlt"]
[/slides]
Where [slides] and [/slides] are the beginning and ending of Slides slider respectively, keep on adding as many [slidesslide linkurl="LinkURL" linktitle="LinkTitle" imgurl="FullPathOfImage" imgalt="ImgAlt"] for as many slides you want.
To implement directly in theme files, use:
<div id="slides">
<div class="slides_container">
<a href="LinkURL" title="LinkTitle" target="_blank"><img src="FullPathOfImage" width="570" height="270" alt="ImgAlt"></a>
</div>
<a href="#" class="prev"><img src="PathOf-arrow-prev.png-image" width="24" height="43" alt="Arrow Prev"></a>
<a href="#" class="next"><img src="PathOf-arrow-next.png-image" width="24" height="43" alt="Arrow Next"></a>
</div>
Slides is originally by Nathan Searles.
You can customize these in the Settings section:
