WPS3Slider plugin for WordPress
This is my first contribution to the WordPress community. It is a plugin that will allow you to place s3slider galleries anywhere within your WordPress install. To render the images, the plugin uses the swiss army knife for dyamic thumbnail generators, timthumb.
You can obtain the latest version of this plugin by visiting the plugin page on wordpress.org or by using your WordPress admin area.
Once installed, go to your admin area > Media > WPS3Slider where you can start creating your galleries. Before you install, make sure the temp, cache and uploads folders are read, write and executable by the server.
chmod 777 {temp,cache,uploads}
To insert a gallery in a post, click on the pictures icon above the media menu above the TinyMCE editor and select the gallery you want. This will then render you the shortcode to use within the post/page. If you want to place a gallery within your template files, you can simply use the do_shortcode method.
do_shortcode('[wps3 id="5"]');
If you find any issues with the plugin, please report them to the project on google code.
Enjoy.

I tried your plugin. Every time I went to upload the jpg image, i get a error
* Upload file is not an image
What is this?

Hi there, The script checks against the files mime type for validity. For this to happen it appears the image you are trying to upload does not matche the ones specified in my validation script (‘image/jpg’,'image/jpeg’,'image/png’,'image/gif’). Can you send me the image so I can check the mime?

You wouldn’t want to insert it into your header but if you want to put it in you template files you can use the function do_shortcode.

@wolfgang, add the following code
Depending on what the gallery ID number is in my case it was 1.
Put the above code in your header.php file .It needs to be placed within the a div wrapper with accompanied css in order to display where you want it to go in the header.

Sorry it seems I can’t add code understandably to the comments.But I see you got it right.

@Jose
I’ve released an update that includes more mime types for the .jpg extension, so hopefully, your images and anyone elses will now pass validation.

Hi, The latest release (v1.1.1) includes support for all popular and rare mime types for Jpegs, so this should fix your issue.

Thank you for putting this together.
How do you delete a picture from a gallery?

6-23-2010
@dav – possibly, I’ll keep in mind for future releases.

@Simone – If you click on ‘Edit Items’ in the gallery viewer, you will be able to edit/delete individual items

@faoroko – Sorry to hear you’re having difficulty with the plugin, if you have not already done so, could you report it on the google hosting page: http://code.google.com/p/wps3slider/issues/list
6-23-2010
This is a great plugin and 3.0 ready.
When you get a chance, I’d like an option to remove the text overlay. I’m willing to help if you’d like
6-24-2010
@nohl – Thanks for you feedback. I’ll consider this feature in future releases. If you wish to branch the project, feel free to visit the plugin development page on google code: https://code.google.com/p/wps3slider/
6-24-2010

i was needing one without the overlay,
so i ve work like a dirty boy :
adminscreens.php, line 238 :

Hello, not sure how if I can have the Overlay remove if there’s no description text input?
7-15-2010
Yea just leave the field blank and it will leave out rendering the overlay.
EDIT: Meant to say, use http://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/fotoslide/ instead

hi,
i like the plugin well done, but i have one problem is that i can’t get it works in the header.php ! so could you please in details or in steps how can i do this !!!
because i did tried many things mentioned above but no luck !!!
7-31-2010
No, it doesn’t quite. What I did is to append the .js with a 0% opacity options.
Fotoslide only accept photos uploaded in the media library, which I like to have that ‘upload here’ to take photo from the plugin setting page.
My new question is, instead of having FADE, is there a way to implement CROSSFADE as animation?
Thank you Kev

@Savage75
You can use the do_shortcode() function to place the slider in your theme files.

@andychin
Crossfade and other transitions will be considered for future releases. I have so much going on right now, finding time to progress this plugin is tough!
