Installation

After copying the the file “gst_superslideshows.php” and the folder “gst_superslideshows” to your “/plugins” folder, the plugin will be ready for usage. After copying the plugin files, you will find a “GST SuperSlideshows” entry in the right menu under “Theme”.  On this page you can create and manage your slideshows.

Usage

The GST SuperSlideshows plugin builds a slideshow using Pages (these are regular pages created under the Pages tab), so before creating the actual slideshow, make sure you have created the pages you want to feature in your slideshow. These pages can contain anything you’d like, from simple images to html and links, it’ll all work! To create a new slideshow, navigate to the GST SuperSlideshows panel and enter the name for your new slideshow.

Next, select the pages you’d like to appear as slides in your new slideshow. As of now, the only way to give a certain order to the slideshow is by using the page names (“slide1″ will appear before “slide2″, “slide2″ will appear before “slide3″, etc).

After selecting your slides, you can enter several settings for the Cycle slideshow (for more info on the individual settings, please have a look here). We have only provided the most commonly used configuration items for the GST SuperSlideshow plugin. To have a look at the different available effect, please look here.

After creating a new slideshow, you can copy/paste the required code and past in within the template file where you’d like the slideshow to appear:

Generated HTML

GST SuperSlideshows places the content from your pages/slides within LI tags inside an Unsorted List (<ul></ul>). Keep in mind that the plugin DOES NOT provide styling for your slideshows, so be sure to add some CSS to make sure your slideshows blend in nicely!

    your plugin looks nice, but I don’t understand where to place the generated code

    in the theme for the site or in a page?
    if is in the theme, then we must put it in the head or the body
