Carousel of Post allows you to quickly and easily put one or more galleries on a page/post using shortcodes. The images in the gallery will be selected from either all images attached to posts, or from images attached to a specific post.

The default is to select 10 random images from all posts.

Documentation

Features

Uses JCarousel
Integrates with other galleries (such as NextGen) to reuse the jcarousel and jquery without clashes.
Many configurable options
Small
Uses the builtin wordpress thumbnail sizes for images

Usage

Use the shortcode to display a random selection of images from the posts on your site.

CSS is used to set the sizing of the Carousel areas.

Example:
\n Shows a carousel with 2 images visible
\n [carousel-of-post-images imagesize=small visible=2 count=15]

Defining the number of visible items

Sometimes people are confused how to define the number of visible items because there is no option for this as they expect (Yes, there is an option visible, we discuss this later).

You simply define the number of visible items by defining the width (or height) with the class .jcarousel-clip (or the more distinct .jcarousel-clip-horizontal and .jcarousel-clip-vertical classes) in your skin stylesheet.

This offers a lot of flexibility, because you can define the width in pixel for a fixed carousel or in percent for a flexible carousel (This example shows a carousel with a clip width in percent, resize the browser to see it in effect).

So, why there is an option visible? If you set the option visible, jCarousel sets the width of the visible items to always make this number of items visible. Open this example and resize your browser window to see it in effect.

How do I change the size of the carousel

This is performed by changing the underlying CSS used by jcarousel; for example

\n  .jcarousel-skin-tango .jcarousel-container-horizontal { width: 990px ; }\n  .jcarousel-skin-tango .jcarousel-clip-horizontal { width: 990px ; height: 240px ; }\n  .jcarousel-skin-tango .jcarousel-next-horizontal, .jcarousel-skin-tango .jcarousel-prev-horizontal { top: 140px ; }\n  .jcarousel-skin-tango .jcarousel-item-horizontal { margin-right: 10px; }\n  .jcarousel-skin-tango .jcarousel-direction-rtl .jcarousel-item-horizontal { margin-left: 10px; }\n  .jcarousel-skin-tango .jcarousel-item { width: 300px; height: 240px; }\n

Will make a container that is 990×240 px; use this with the imagesize of 280,280 to produce 3 images across in a reasonable format.

How do I include images from a set of posts

Use the syntax postid=1,2,3,4 (where 1,2,3,4) are the posts that you wish to include images from.
