This plugin enables you to have a side bar widget with slider (slideshow) of featured images from recent posts (custom post type), 
from a selected category (hierarchical taxonomy), from comma separated list of tags. If post has no featured image, plugin tries 
to extract any 1st image from that post content. Customize post title and background color, background color of slider navigation panel. 
Color is selected from WordPress built-in color pallete. Manual input is available also. Select animation type: slide or fade. 
Setup slider speed and widget dimensions. You can have as many sliders as you wish with different categories. 
This is mainly useful if you have a dedicated category for photo gallery posts and would like to display recent post title with its featured photo.

How it Works (Please Read):
In order to provide a faster and more seamless editing and preview experience without having to first upload all files, the EasyRotator plugin interfaces with an external editor application (auto-installed via Adobe AIR). This means there are a couple minutes of additional up-front installation time versus other plugins. However, we’re confident you’ll agree with <a href="https://wordpress.org/support/topic/extremely-easy-to-use-excellent-results" rel="ugc">numerous</a> <a href="https://wordpress.org/support/topic/perfect-the-result-of-a-long-search" rel="ugc">others</a> (more <a href="https://wordpress.org/support/topic/worked-first-time-3" rel="ugc">here</a> and <a href="https://wordpress.org/support/topic/the-trouble-installing-was-worth-it" rel="ugc">here</a>) that this results in a much better editing experience. If you’d prefer not to install any external editor, then EasyRotator unfortunately isn’t the best plugin for your needs :/
