JJ NextGen JQuery Cycle

The ‘JJ NextGen JQuery Cycle’ allows you to create a ‘Cycle Lite’ (http://jquery.malsup.com/cycle/lite/) as a widget or as a shortcode. This plugin uses the ‘NextGen Gallery’ plugin for its images.

Requirements:

• NextGen Gallery Plugin (https://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/nextgen-gallery/)

NextGen Gallery Integration:

• This plugin uses the original width and height of the image uploaded so make sure the images are the correct dimensions when uploaded.
• If a width and height are defined under the configuration all images will be resized to those dimensions (Highly recommended).
• Alt & Title Text Field: Provide a full url here and the image will link to this. Only works if alt field starts with either of these; /, http, or ftp.
• Description Field: Will be used as image alt text. If alt text is present but not a valid url alt text will be used instead for image alt text.

You can specify the following parameters:

NOTE: sc means shortcode:

• Title: Title. Leave blank for no title. (sc: title=»My Cycle Lite»)
• Gallery: Leave blank to use all galleries or choose a gallery to use. (sc: gallery=»galleryid»)
• Order: Order to display results in. You can choose; Random, Latest First, Oldest First, or NextGen Sortorder. Random will still work when a page is cached. (sc: order=»random»|»asc»|»desc»|»sortorder»)
• Shuffle: If order is random and this is true will shuffle images with javascript. Useful if your are caching your pages. (sc: shuffle=»true»|»false»)
• Max pictures: The maximum amount of pictures to use. (sc: max_pictures=»6″)
• HTML id: HTML id to use. Defaults to ‘cycle_lite’. Needs to be different for multiple instances on same page. (sc: html_id=»cycle_lite»)
• Image width: Width of image. Defaults to 200. Recommended to set this. (sc: width=»200″)
• Image height: Height of image. Defaults to 200. Recommended to set this. Will prevent a floating problem if set. (sc: height=»150″)
• Center: Centers content in container. Requires width to be set. (sc: center=»1″)

Cycle Lite settings:

Please check the cycle lite home page form more information (http://jquery.malsup.com/cycle/lite/).

• timeout: Milliseconds between slide transitions (0 to disable auto advance).. (sc: timeout=»4000″)
• speed: Speed of the transition (any valid fx speed value). (sc: speed=»1000″)
• sync: True if in/out transitions should occur simultaneously. (sc: sync=»1″)
• fit: Force slides to fit container. (sc: fit=»0″)
• pause: True to enable «pause on hover». (sc: pause=»1″)
• delay: Additional delay (in ms) for first transition (hint: can be negative). (sc: delay=»2)
