A slideshow plugin for use with Koken and the OxyGen theme (You can still use this plugin even if your using another theme, but will need to add the extra CSS for the navigation buttons).
![OxyGen Slideshow Preview] (preview.jpg)
Adds a shortcode to embed slideshows with next, previous and play/pause controls in essays or pages. When in text in your Koken admin area, and when editing an essay or page, click on the slideshow icon with a '+' on it to insert a slideshow with controls.
Style the added controls using their CSS selectors:
- .k-content-embed .og-slideshow
.og-slideshow .sldshw-prev
.og-slideshow .sldshw-play
.og-slideshow .sldshw-next
.og-slideshow ul .nav-content li
.og-slideshow .k-content-title
.og-slideshow .k-content-caption
.og-slideshow .k-content-text
- Upload the folder 'OxyGen-slideshow' from the zip you download to the directory
/storage/plugins/
- Activate the plugin through the
Admin->Settings->Plugins
screen in your Koken admin area.
- Where are the settings?
Users of OxyGen v3 will find settings for showing/hiding the Title and caption in the theme settings panel
Template
.
Slideshow settings for each slideshow, can be set directly inside Admin->Site ->The slide show gear icon
.
- Minimized our Javascript and instead added the uncompressed/raw JS to OxyGen-slideshow.js for anyone that want to have a look at it.
- [FIXED] Slideshow settings didn't stick
- Abandonded using custom divs for the slideshow.
- Instead we are now using the same as the core slideshows:
<figure>
<figcaption>
this way we get to re-use the themes built in classes. But still be able to set unciqe styles to each slideshow. - Navigation buttons now fades out if no mouse movement is detected, and fades in again as soon as visitor moves the mouse.
-
Forked bigflannel-Slideshow-Embed and tweeked it a bit more to "our liking".
-
It is mostly the same plugin as before with small changes to the UX that we find making a better experience for the end user and admin.
-
Slideshows auto play, as you would expect, since this is the default state for the built in slideshows.
-
Click on a slideshow image opens up in lightbox view instead of advancing the slideshow.
-
Since we opens up the lightbox on image click, we removed the title link.
-
If no title is present for an image, we display the filename.
-
The "next"/"previous" buttons only displays back and forward arrows instead of both arrows and text.
-
We added
.sldshw-prev
,.sldshw-play
&.sldshw-next
to the parent<li>
that holds the navigation items to make it easier to style everything to your liking.
As you can see there is not mutch that is different, so wich one you choose to use is solely up to you :D
