Description
The Image Flicker plugin allows you to embed a changing image anywhere in your site. Rotate through a different banner advertisment every ten seconds, for example, or maybe have a little box in your sidebar that flicks through a selection of your best photographs. The speed at which the images flick is adjustable, as is the number of images. Each image can be linked to anywhere, and/or given a description which will appear with each image as it is flicked through.
Image display is determined by you: just change the style properties for the element #image_flicker in your stylesheet.
Installation
- Upload the
image-flickerdirectory (or just theimage-flicker.phpfile) to your/wp-content/plugins/directory; - Activate the plugin through the ‘Plugins’ menu in WordPress;
- Place
<div id="image_flicker"></div>(or other element with the ID ofimage_flicker) in your templates (e.g.sidebar.phporheader.php) where you want the image flicker to be. - Set the images’ details and flicking frequency in ‘Tools > Image Flicker’.
