Description
Slick Slideshow is a highly customizable, but easy-to-use JQuery Slideshow Plugin, to show dynamic images or contents on your website.
Visit the Plugin Page to see it in action.
Inspired by a tutorial from sixrevisions.com, we adapted the
extended work from Blog Monnet USA. Our part was finally to create a WordPress-Plugin from that.
Features:
- All Styles, Animation Parameters and Contents are customizable easily over the backend
- Can use Image URLs (unexperienced users) or custom HTML (experienced Users)
- Valid XHTML 1.0 Strict, Valid CSS 2
- Compatibility to other JQuery WordPress Plugins (you can use a Lightbox like Colorbox for example for images in the Slideshow)
- Fast and efficient
- Does not require extra-tables in your database (actually this might be required one day, but currently everything works fine)
- GPLv2 licensed as it is a requirement of the WordPress Codex (donations for the efforts and further development are fair and welcome)
- Languages: English, German
Known issues
- The Plugin is not tested in combination with the use of other Javascript-Frameworks than jQuery (like Prototype). There might obviously be compability issues.
