=== Responsive Slider === Contributors: Griden Donate link: Tags: slider, responsive, flex slider, flexslider, slides, jquery slider, slideshow Requires at least: 3.3 Tested up to: 3.3.1 Stable tag: 0.1 A responsive slider for integrating into themes via a simple shortcode. == Description == The Responsive Slider plugin allows you to create slides, that consist of linked (to any url) images and titles. The slider would then take those slides and present them as a jQuery-powered slideshow - at a chosen location within your theme, page, or post. In whatever order you want them. The main purpose of the *Responsive Slider* is to serve as an effective addition to **responsive WordPress themes**, as it would automatically shrink/expand with its container. This would work out of the box - there is no need for additional CSS or JavaScript tweaks from your theme. Some key advantages of using a slider plugin, opposite to relying on sliders that are built into themes: * A plugin doesn't 'lock you in' - you can freely switch themes without losing your slides. It separates content from design - one of the most important principles of website development. * A plugin allows you to use custom post types as a way to store your content, thus allowing you to 'transfer' your content to any theme. * A plugin is developed and maintained separately. In the case of *Responsive Slider* it means that it gets special attention and regular updates. It's an entity on its own. == Installation == 1. Upload `plugin-name.php` to the `/wp-content/plugins/` directory. 1. Activate the plugin through the 'Plugins' menu in WordPress. 1. Go to **Slides -> Settings** and configure the slider options. 1. Go to **Slides -> Add a new Slide** and create a few slides. 1. Place `` in your template - wherever you want it displayed. Alternatively you can use `[responsive_slider]` into a post or a page - just like any other shortcode. 1. That's it. Your site should now display the slider at the chosen location. == Frequently Asked Questions == = Would the Responsive Slider work in my theme? = The plugin has been tested with more than 20 popular WordPress themes. It should work in yours too. = Does my theme need to be 'responsive' in order to use this plugin? = No, not at all. You can use it with any theme. = Can I change the way it looks? = Sure, you can easily override the slider CSS in your theme. The easiest approach is to use a tool like Firebug to find the snippet you need to override. Then copy it to your theme CSS file (usually `style.css`) and edit it there, using a CSS selector with higher priority. == Changelog == = 0.1 = * Initial release.
