I would like to include a slider into one of my page, and with each slider image comes some text (h1 and p), that should also change.
For building the static website I used the jslider, but now I need to implement it into GS CMS, and I am struggling.
Could you please give me any help of how to implement the slider with the text?
Just add it to your theme.
And wrap your slider in whatever tags you need to initialize it.
Most sliders use simple lists or divs.
You will need to post exact info on what your code is and what slider you are using.
Thank you for trying to help!
I am using the jSlider, and the code for the slider images is like this:
<!-- Slider -->
<div id="slider">
<div id="sliderimage"><img src="images/homeSlide_1.jpg" /></div>
<div id="sliderimage"><img src="images/homeSlide_2.jpg" /></div>
<a href="#" class="slidesjs-previous slidesjs-navigation"></a>
<a href="#" class="slidesjs-next slidesjs-navigation"></a>
</div>
<!-- End Slider -->
So it's simply a list of images, but how do I include this into GS CMS, so that the client can change/add images?
On the same page I have headline and some short text, that should change according with the slider images. How can I implement this? I figured out how to have multiple custom fields on a page with the Custom Fields plugin, but I don't know how to combine this with the slider?
I hope you can help................
Thank you for your tip, but I now had to decide to use modx (again), even though I really like the simplicity of GS, it just doesn't seem to fit all my needs for this project.
Yes allowing editing of the images and captions is best done with a plugin.
