yCyclista is a plugin that overwrites WP’s gallery feature with jquery cycle effects. You can easily, without any editing, create jQuery slideshows or gallery transitions. Cross-browser tested, fully validates. No need to have your galleries in separate locations; now you can attach them to your post and use away! great for product images, shopping, photo gallery, so on! Now with caption & exclude support.
Other plugins make you upload to specific directories, use FTP, or install additional scripts that you then embed. We’ll have none of that here, thanks!
Our yCyclista plugin overwrites WordPress’s basic gallery function with malsup’s jQuery Cycle plugin, allowing the lay user to dynamically add slideshows or clickthrough galleries to their site.

Please note, as with every plugin or theme modification, you should do a backup of your files beforehand. Although we’ve tested this across many installs, we are not responsible for anything it does to your system and do not guarantee support.

WP Slick Slider was created as a powerful , customisable and editable jquery cycle plugin.
It uses A custom post type and taxonomy to create a slider, with almost unlimited options and support for multiple sliders on any page and full templating support, the options are endless.
It uses a Template tag:
 
And A Shortcode:

<h3>Templating</h3>
WP Slick Slider 1.0+ has full support for templating, If are not comfortable working on minor edits to the code in your site, this feature will not be for you.
To activate templating, simply create a folder called “wpss” in your theme folder.
There are 4 types of slides available, these are fully individually templateable, you can even edit the output for a slide type of a specific slide.
To activate templating:
<ol>
<li>Create a file in your theme “wpss”</li>
<li>copy the files from wp-slick-slider/templates/ to the new theme folder.</li>
<li>Edit Away!</li>
</ol>
You can edit the templates for an individual slider using the following guide: 
1. copy the files from wp-slick-slider/templates/ to the wpss folder. 
2. Rename The required file to: {$slug}_{$type}.php. EG: If you have a slider called cool_slider and want to edit the output for the Full Width Image type,the filename would be: cool_slider_full-width-image.php. 
3. Edit Away.
