<h4>iSlidex is a WordPress slideshow plugin that will display images taken from posts in a specific category.</h4>
<p>Completely automated once you set the number of slides you would like to feature, the size and the category from where iSlidex will pull the images from.<br />
You can decide also whether to have nice semi-transparent captions, with the title of the post for each slide.<br />
iSlidex comes with a widget, which can be set independently from the main slider, from the same settings page, however we do recommend the use of the plugin only inside big sidebars, in order to be displayed in the best way.<br />
Every image is resized and cached automatically, and you dont have to worry about server load or manual image editing.<br />
Also, we optimized the code for better SEO, so that every image has its alt and titles attributes and we have added compatibility with qTranslate plugin.<br />
Islidex also comes with different slideshow themes to choose from!</p>
<p>Cross-browser compliant: Internet Explorer 7, Internet Explorer 8, FireFox 3+, Safari 4+, Chrome 4+, Opera 10+.</p>
<p>WordPress 3.1+ compatible.</p>
<h4>Can I use it in a post/page to display only the images from that post/page?</h4>
<p>NO!<br />
iSlidex is specifically built only to display 1 image per each post from a set category, not all the images in 1 post. We are thiking about adding this in the future, no need to request it.</p>
<h4>Problems making it work?</h4>
<p>If you can’t make the plugin work, check out the Usage instructions and FAQ, ask in the forums so we can help you, instead of reporting it as broken.<br />

<h4>Hello Theme Developers!</h4>
<p>Have you ever added a Featured Image to a post and thought to yourself, “I wish I could add more than one image this way”? Well, now you can. Featured Galleries mirrors the Featured Images functionality of WordPress. The only difference is that posts get an entire gallery rather than just a single image. These galleries behave almost exactly like Featured Images, and make use of  WordPress’s built in Media Manager. Users can select images, define the order, and save the gallery, all through a simple drag-n-drop interface.</p>
<p><strong>Note</strong>: This plugin DOES NOT HANDLE THE FRONTEND HTML CREATION. That is left for themes to handle, to allow for maximum flexibility. Featured Galleries just handles the backend/admin interface for creating featured galleries and storing them as metadata. You will need to integrate this into your theme, or use a theme with prebuilt integration.</p>
<h4>Quick Start Guide to Integrate Into Themes</h4>
<p><em>For more information, see <a href="https://github.com/Kelderic/featured-galleries/wiki" rel="nofollow ugc">GitHub Wiki</a></em>.</p>
<p>I’ve tried to make this as intuitive as possible. Themes can integrate Featured Galleries in the same way they integrate Featured Images. Inside any template file where the gallery should appear, the theme will call the <a href="https://github.com/Kelderic/featured-galleries/wiki/get_post_gallery_ids" rel="nofollow ugc"><code>get_post_gallery_ids()</code></a> function. As long as it is used inside the loop, the function doesn’t need any parameters. By default, it will return an array of image IDs.</p>
<h4>Example</h4>
<p>Set inside the Loop. This returns all images in the Featured Gallery, as an array, then loops through to display each using an HTML <code><img></code> tag.</p>
<pre><code>$galleryArray = get_post_gallery_ids(); 

foreach ( $galleryArray as $id ) {

    echo '<img src="' . wp_get_attachment_url( $id ) .'">';

}
</code></pre>
<p>You can also customize the returned value from the function to suit your needs. See the full <a href="https://github.com/Kelderic/featured-galleries/wiki/get_post_gallery_ids" rel="nofollow ugc">function documentation</a> page for details.</p>
<h4>Custom Post Types</h4>
<p>The plugin comes with a filter to easily add Featured Galleries to custom post types. See the <a href="https://github.com/Kelderic/featured-galleries/wiki/fg_post_types" rel="nofollow ugc"><code>fg_post_types</code></a> documentation page for details.</p>
<h4>Customizing the Media Manager</h4>
<p>The media manager can be customized in sevearl ways. See the <a href="https://github.com/Kelderic/featured-galleries/wiki/fg_show_sid℮bar" rel="nofollow ugc"><code>fg_show_sidebar</code></a> and <a href="https://github.com/Kelderic/featured-galleries/wiki/fg_use_legacy_selection" rel="nofollow ugc"><code>fg_use_legacy_selection</code></a> filter documentation pages for details.</p>
<h4>Want to Help?</h4>
<p>I’d love some help with internationalization. It was working at one point, but drivingralle did that code because I don’t really understand it, and I’m not sure it’s still working.</p>


Featured Galleries

So glad I've discovered this, there are so many bad sliders out there I was driven to make my own too. This plugin does all the heavy lifting for me.
