Wordpress Gallery Plugin

Demo

Download

New Features

1] Custom Image support. So you can create slider without using posts.

2] Added New Effects Swirl,Rain,Fade

3] Added styles like border,background,font-family,font-size for headings and text.

Installation

1. Download the zipped plugin file to your local machine.
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. Click on Content slide in your wordpress dashboard and configure content slide plugin options.

You can directly install wordpress content slide plugin from your websites admin plugin section.

Add PHP code

To display WordPress content slide on your website you have to add following lines of code inside your themes .php files.

<?php if(function_exists('wp_content_slider')) { wp_content_slider(); } ?>

Example if you want to display this slider in your header then you have to edit the header.php file. Just open header.php from your current theme in any editor and add

<?php if(function_exists('wp_content_slider')) { wp_content_slider(); } ?>

lines at the location where you want to display the slider.

Slider Only On Home Page

In some cases you just want to display slider only on the home page in this case you have selected a page as home page from the settings->reading section.
And if your home page is using default page template then you have to add following lines of code in your page.php at the location where you want to display the slider.

<?php
if(is_front_page())
{
if(function_exists('wp_content_slider')) { wp_content_slider(); } 
}
?>

Using above code the slider will be displayed only on home page.

Slider on a Specific page

If you want to display slider on a specific page say ‘about’ then you have to use wordpress conditional tags

<?php
if(is_page('about'))
{
if(function_exists('wp_content_slider')) { wp_content_slider(); } 
}
?>

    Nice slideshow and easy to use. However, I am trying to adjust the timing of the slides. I’m using the plugin through php code…having it access posts in a specific category. I’m also using the “fade” effect. I’ve tried adjusting the ‘Delay between images’ setting but the slides rotate at the same speed…too fast!

    Am I doing something wrong?
    Thanks so much!

    Hi, is there a bit of code I can add to stop the images loading all at once? When someone comes to my site, they immediately see all 3 images loads at once, then collapse into the slider and the rotate properly?

    Thanks,
    Matt

      Matt. Just add some css to the container div for the slider.

      overflow: hidden;

      That will take care of seeing the other images load outside of the slider container.

    Hi
    I love the simpliciety of your slideshow but when I reduced the amount of images from 10 to 5 images the old ones ALL still show unless I’m logged in.
    I tried turning off the plugin and turning it back off again but no change. I have also cleared the cache and everything but deleteing the images (didn’t want blank boxes).
    Any ideas? Thanks

    Hi,

    I’ve put in your code for displaying only on home page however I’m now seeing both the content slider and the header image sitting underneath that’s supposed to come up on the rest of the website.

    How do I make the other header disappear off the home page only?

    Code here:

    How do I adjust only the bottom border of the slide? It only gives option for all borders.

    • snilesh says:

      Option added for full box border. You can not change specific border using options.

      If you want apply Bottom border then add following lines of code inside your themes style.css file

      #wpcontent_slider 
      {
        border-bottom:10px solid #000 !important;
      }
      

      Or you can apply different color borders for every border like

      #wpcontent_slider 
      {
        border-top:10px solid #000 !important;
        border-right:10px solid #000 !important;
        border-bottom:10px solid #000 !important;
        border-left:10px solid #000 !important;
      }
      

      change #000 with your color code.

    Hey,

    Thanx so much for the plug in, it works great thus far. Thank goodness for folks like you that make it very simple for people like me to find easy to understand help. I am just trying to center the slide on my page but I am not sure how. Also, if I want to have different slide shows on my site do i use the same plug in to do that? I want to use different pictures for each show. I was thinking of putting a slide in my header. I am using the autofocus theme.

    Peace and Love

    I’m using this plugin on a multi-page website and I have about 72 banners to display. The client says they want each page to display 3 different banners; with this plugin, how do I get each of the pages to display three different banners?

    Hello, I just started using WP and I found your plugin and I love the ease of it. I do have one question how would I modify the php code to align the slide show to the middle of the page?

    Hi,
    I am in need of desperate help! I feel like your plugin has been working the best. The only problem is that the photos are coming up all at once.
    I added the code:

    Followed all the easy instruction. Is there anything else I need to do?
