=== WP Parallax Content Slider === Plugin Author: wp-maverick Donate link: http://jltweb.info/realisations/wp-parallax-content-plugin/#contribute Contributors: wp-maverick, mbamultimedia Tags: slider, parallax, animation, jquery, responsive Requires at least: 3.0 Tested up to: 3.8.1 Stable tag: trunk A customizable JQuery content slider with CSS3 animations and parallax effects. == Description == WP Parallax Content Slider is a plugin which adds automatically a content slider of your last posts where you want on your Wordpress blog or website. This plugin is written upon the code of [Manoella Ilic](http://tympanus.net/codrops/author/crnacura/), you can see the simple JQuery and CSS version [here](http://tympanus.net/codrops/2012/03/15/parallax-content-slider-with-css3-and-jquery/). Transitions between slides are made using a powerfull combination of CSS3 and JQuery to display a beautiful parallax effect. It is very easy to configure the plugin as it adds automatically an admin page in Wordpress administration section. You will be able to configure : * New in v0.9.4 : Filter by post category directly with a shortcode parameter (eg. [parallaxcontentslider categ="2"] or [parallaxcontentslider categ="2,5"]); * The type of content to display (posts, pages, both); * The number of slides to display; * The auto-switch mode; * The time between each slide; * The sort order of the content to display; * The graphic theme; * and many more... It's also possible to choose to display a static HTML content instead of displaying last posts in the slider. WARNING: This last feature is dangerous since all plugins files will are deleted by Wordpress during an automatic update! Be careful if you use it and backup your files. Roadmap: * Static slides in a new dedicated custom_post_type; * Better shortcodes; * Add a parameter to use an external CSS file to customize CSS styles; * Add extra parameters to the admin panel (Sizes, colors,...); * Better touch support; * and many more...

In dynamic display mode, the plugin generate slides based on your wordpress posts. = How do I add/edit slides in static mode? = In static display mode, the plugin simply use the 4 slides which are in the file `static-slides-sample.php`. So if you want to add/edit slides, you’ll have to edit manually this file! (I recommand to copy the sample file and rename it, then change the inclusion in `wp-parallax-content-slider.php`: `include('static-slides-sample.php');` to `include('static-slides-customized.php');` = The slider appears but it is empty, what can I do? = Many users have reported this problem and almost everytime, that's due to a javascript conflict with other custom themes or plugins which don't respect development best-practices. Your browser development console will help you to see if there is an error, and most of the time, this error will be: `Uncaught TypeError: Object # has no method 'cslider'` Go to the [support section](http://wordpress.org/support/plugin/wp-parallax-content-slider), you should find something interesting among the existing threads. = I can't see the parallax effect in Internet Explorer (IE7, IE8, IE9), is that a bug? = Unfortunately for IE users, this slider use CSS3 transitions & animations which are not yet supported by these IE versions :( [http://caniuse.com/#feat=css-transitions](http://caniuse.com/#feat=css-transitions) [http://caniuse.com/#feat=css-animation](http://caniuse.com/#feat=css-animation) So the slider will works, but without the parallax effect! = Is this slider "Responsive"? = Yes, it is! I have tried to improve display for at least 3 kind of resolutions (Desktop, Tablet, phones).
