    Is there a way to check if a certain slide show exists? I’m wanting to put a unique slideshow on certain pages of the site. I’m creating slideshows with the same name as the title of the page and would like to check if a slideshow exists and if it does then call that slideshow. I’m using a background image, so if no slideshow exists I don’t want to include the background. Right now, I’m doing this from the header. It’s a similar problem to this post:

    Thanks for your help.

    Sure Dan, this is doable. Here is a bit of code that will get the page’s slug, check if there is a slideshow with a matching slug, and if there is, load that slideshow:

    <?php //Check for Meteor Slides

if(function_exists('meteor_slideshow')) {

	//Get the page's slug

	$slug = $post->post_name;

	//Check for matching slideshow slug

	if ( is_term( $slug , 'slideshow' ) ) {

		//If there's a match load that slideshow

			meteor_slideshow($slug,"");

		}else{

			//Otherwise, load some other content instead?

		}

} ?>
