Plugin Description
This plugin is a lightweight template/framework for developers to easily add a powerful AJAX image slider to a page.
Features
- Use simple shortcodes to add a slider to a page.
- Create multiple slider groups.
- Supports one slider per page.
- The first slide loads when the page loads and the rest are pulled in via AJAX, speeding up initial page load.
- Uses a custom post type for the slides making it easy for you, or customers, to add new slides and groups.
- Uses the featured image of the slide’s post.
- You create the slide order.
- Change slide speed, fadeIn/fadeOut durations, remove base styles, and even remove next/previous arrows and slide button icons
Plugin depends upon your theme’s style and does not contain native styles.
This is a minimal plugin, function over form. If you would like to extend it, or would like us to extend it in later versions, feel free to post ideas in this plugin’s support forum, or contact us.
Shortcodes:
* `[ic_do_slider]` - run the default slider
* `[ic_do_slider group="slug_or_id_of_group_term"]` - adds slider with the specified group ( ID of the group term, or it's slug )
* `[ic_do_slider quantity="5"]` - changes the default slide quantity from 3 to 5
* `[ic_do_slider thumb_size="thumbnail"]` - changes the default slide featured image size to thumbnail (default is medium - thumbnail, medium, large, full or custom - if supported )
* `[ic_do_slider fadeIn=600 fadeOut=700 speed=7000]` - duration and speed of slider (in miliseconds - so 7000 is 7 seconds )
