2. Unzip the file.
3. Upload the “content-slide” folder to the “/wp-content/plugins/” directory. (DO NOT CHANGE ANY FILE OR FOLDER NAMES)
4. Activate the plugin through the “Plugins” menu in WordPress.
5. Add the folowing code anywhere within your theme where you want the content gallery to be displayed:

        Thank you for the reply.
        I’m not quite sure about the part where adding the code to anywhere within my theme where I want the gallery to show. May I know which file I should open and insert the code? Or any tutorial on this?

        Thanks again ^^

    Hi there,

    Can this plugin be used in the header.php file so the header becomes a series of fading images, each of which is clickable to another page?

    cheers, Neal

      That is what I want to do, I have been playing round with different pugins, but no luck so far, I know there is a way to do this, perhaps using javascript, or jquery, but so far, nothing is working if you find something let me know I think this might work but have not really tested it yet, but what you suggest is exactly what I hope to do.

    Hi Snilesh,
    Loving the plug. However, on all pages, all I can see is a list of the posts where the images are located rather than the page content.
    Any suggestions sir?
    Regards
    Clive

    I installed this plugin in a template with the php code. However, there seems to be no way to modify or add content to the banner. You cannot use custom fields when added this way. Am I missing something?

      Also, in WP 3.01, inserting the slide inside the post area of the page in the template caused the column to blow out the layout in IE8 but not in Safari.

    I added this plugin, which is nice, to my WP site using 3.0. Added the custom fields for the images and links. But the link only works when I right click and open in new window. No matter what browser I try using. Tested in IE 6,7,8, Safari, FF on mac and PC. Any suggestions would be most welcome.

    I’d like the slider to appear in my header with fading images. Can you tell me where I would put this code:

      You have to put this code in your themes header.php file

      <?php include (ABSPATH . '/wp-content/plugins/content-slide/slideshow.php'); ?>

    great plug-in, so easy to use and implement a big well done there.

    For waht it does, show images with clickable links to posts or adverts or the posts themselves, it is just great.
