This plugin creates picture sliders (slideshows) from a folder. 
The pictures folder must be uploaded (using FTP) somewhere on the server (e.g. wp-content/upload).
To include a slider in a post or a page, you have to use the following shortcode :
<pre><code>[folderslider folder="local_path_to_folder"]
</code></pre>
An Options page allow to set the default paramaters of the sliders :
<ul>
<li>Transition Mode (mode): horizontal, vertical, fade</li>
<li>Caption Format (captions): none, filename, filenamewithoutextension, smartfilename (filename with underscores, extension and front numbers removed)</li>
<li>CSS (css): change the frame around slider: ‘noborder’, ‘shadow’, ‘shadownoborder’, ‘black-border’, ‘white-border’, ‘gray-border’</li>
<li>Width and Height of the slider (width and height)</li>
<li>Speed (speed): time between slides in seconds</li>
<li>Previous/Next Buttons (controls): true or false</li>
<li>Play/Pause Button (playcontrol): true or false</li>
<li>Start Slider Automatically (autostart): true or false</li>
<li>Pager (pager): true or false</li>
</ul>
Default slider width is the width of the first picture unless the attribute width is set to a non-zero value. The height is calculate for each picture (to keep ratio) unless the attribute height is set to a non-zero value.
Most of theses settings can be overridden using the corresponding shortcode attribute:
<pre><code>[folderslider folder="wp-content/upload/MyPictures" width=500 
 mode=fade speed=2.5 captions=smartfilename controls=false css="gray-border"]
</code></pre>
