<p>This widget dynamically creates a list of posts from the active category. Displaying the first image and title in a scrolling list. It will display the first image in your post as a thumbnail,it looks first for an attached image, then an embedded image then if it finds the image, it grabs the thumbnail version. Oh, and by the way, it’s an animated vertical scroller, way cool.<br />
If the post has no image the widget uses a default image. This works best with the plugin Widget logic. Just set the widget to is_single() || is_category() and all your single viewed posts will have a scrolling thumbnail list of other posts in this category.</p>

<h3>USAGE</h3>
<p>If you are not sure how this plugin works you may want to read the following.</p>
<ul>
<li>First ensure that you have uploaded all of the plugin files into wp-content/plugins/superslider-postsincat folder.</li>
<li>Go to your WordPress admin panel and stop in to the widgets control page. Activate the SS Posts in Cat widget.</li>
<li>Configure the widget.</li>
<li>Go view a single post on the front side, you should see the superslider-postsincat widget in your side bar.</li>
<li>Optional: move the file postincat.css to your theme folder and the images inside of superslider-postincat/css/images to yourtheme/images, select “Load css from your theme folder” in the widget options panel. This will preserve any modifications you make to the css or image files, if and when there is a plugin update.</li>
<li>Recommended : The css is set up for thumbnails of 150 x 150 pixels, to display 3 images at a time with the default css set the widget height to 552. If you have your thumbnail sizes set differently in the WordPress admin, then you will need to adjust the css and the widget height accordingly.</li>
</ul>
<h3>OPTIONS AND CONFIGURATIONS</h3>
<p>Available under > appearance > widget > SuperSlider-PostsinCat</p>
<ul>
<li>theme css file to load or not (you may want to add the classes to your theme css and reduce file requests to the server).</li>

<li>number of images to pull from category.</li>

<ul>
<li>Please use the support system at https://wordpress.org/</li>

<h3>CAVEAT</h3>

If a user’s browser doesn’t support javascript the scroller will display normally as a list of images.</p>

<p>Auto AnimateImage is WordPress plugin that applies <a href="http://attosoft.info/en/blog/animate-image/" rel="nofollow ugc">AnimateImage script</a> to your site automatically. AnimateImage displays multiple images continuously like animated GIF. All you have to do is write <code>img</code> element like below, and the image will be animated automatically.</p>
<pre><code><img src="images/0.png" data-files="[0-9].png" />
</code></pre>
<p>As you know, <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Animated_GIF" rel="nofollow ugc">animated GIF</a> is the most common animation format, but it supports up to only 256 colors. There are some alternative animation formats such as <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/APNG" rel="nofollow ugc">APNG</a>, <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/MNG" rel="nofollow ugc">MNG</a>, <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/JNG" rel="nofollow ugc">JNG</a>, <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Motion_JPEG" rel="nofollow ugc">Motion JPEG</a> and <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/SVG_animation" rel="nofollow ugc">SVG Animation</a>. However they are currently not widely supported by Web browsers. That is why AnimateImage is the most appropriate method for animated images.</p>

<pre><code><img src="sequential/0.png" data-files="[0-99].png" />
<img src="zero-padded/00.png" data-files="[00-99].png" />
<img src="lowercase/prefix-a.png" data-files="prefix-[a-z].png" />
