    Hi
    I have been testing this plugin and I love how it works!

    Is there a way I can have the same layout as mypage here: https://www.arttus.co.uk/libraries-studies-panelled-rooms
    but using metor-slide insted of the way I am currentley using this page. which will give me added navigation with the arrows and a slide show which I currently don’t have.

    The page hasn’t got the metor-slide on yet as I was just testing it on a test page.
    I can get the plugin slides to work, but I can’t work out how I can intergrate the thumbnails in to this. evn if there is away of having the thumbnails underneath the main image horizonitally would be useful.
    Thanks

    Hi ferg, yes you can add thumbnail navigation by customizing the slideshow script.

    Check out this thread for more details on how add thumbnails.

    Hi
    I am a novice but I have got the captions to show up and now I am determined to get the thumbnails working on this plugin as I can’t find a better plugin for me than this one.

    I was following the thread here about adding thumbnails I have created the “setup an additional featured image size in your theme’s function.php” and as I understand I added the “meteor-slideshow.php” to my theme and I need to call that from the fuctions.php, which I am not sure how to do I copied this to the functions.php

    // Adds function to load slideshow in theme

    function meteor_slideshow($slideshow=NULL, $metadata=NULL) {

    include( ‘meteor-slideshow.php’ );

    }

    But it crashed it so I am now just asking what is the next step? also I wanted multiple slideshows on different pages all with thumbnails does this work or is this process just for one slide show, as you mention above to give this code a unique name: “($slideshow=NULL, $metadata=NULL)”

    Iam sure I can get there with a little help I am just abit confused some of he code.
    Thanks

    I have also fixed the crash by the way I just wanted to know what the next step would be to call up the “meteor-slideshow.php”
    thanks

    You don’t have to create a new version of the meteor-slideshow.php file with your custom loop. That thread is old, you can now use a custom slideshow template and edit the template in your theme to include the thumbnails.
