Thanks, Julian! Another thing that notice is that when I disabled the controls (next and previous control arrows) the white bars remained on both sides of the slideshow. Is there a way to remove those?

I’ll stay tuned for the fix! Thanks!

Hi,

Is it possible to use cslider in PHP? I would like to use it on my homepage.

Great plugin by the way!

Best regards,

Hey ecsanyl!

Thanks, we wrote it, because we needed something like this for our website but we could just find bad plugins ??

What means “on my homepage” ?
Doesn’t your website use WordPress as CMS? Than you could use it.

How does your homepage create content? What CMS do you use?

Theoretically you could use the plugin in any PHP system.
But the problem is, that it uses WordPress functions to store and load settings.

Maybe I could remake it for “normal” PHP usage for you.
This would take a few hours and I would need some more information about your CMS.

Sorry for not being clear. Yes, I mean on my homepage:

https://electrical-engineering-portal.com

Can I add some php call for slider?

Best regards

Hey Edward!

Interesting is, which content management system (CMS) your website uses.
Of cause, there is a way to integrate.

I’d have to change the code a bit, that it fits for your needs.
But for doing this, I’d need more detailed information.

The important thing is, how your page creates content.
I think you’r using some kind of CMS, with which you manage your pages content.

This is important to know how the code have to look like.
I could write something for you. Let me think about this and send me more detailed info.

Julian, I use WordPress as CMS. Site have pages as well as posts.

However, I use custom php for homepage. It has big static picture I would like to replace with Cslider. This php also uses custom function for generating last 3 posts (with timthumb.php).

This big picture is placed within div container with following code:

<div style=”position:absolute;right:0;top:0;margin:20px 0 0 0;”>
<span class=”rm_portfolio_img”><img title=”EEP – Electrical Engineering Portal” src=”https://electrical-engineering-portal.com/wp-content/uploads/intro-image/eep-electrical-engineering-portal-2.jpg&#8221; alt=”EEP – Electrical Engineering Portal” width=”600″ height=”340″ /></span>

Hope this helps a little bit.

Best regards

It works now! Thanks so much for your quick fix!

Hey Edvard!

If you use WordPress as CMS, I don’t have to change code, because cSlider is native WordPress plugin.
You should be able to easy place the cSlider shortcode in your static pages too.
cSlider doesn’t just suppert posts, but also pages.

If you have an image placed on your page, put the [cSlider] shortcode exactly before the image, then [slide] after your image and then place your other stuff to slide after it.
When you put all your stuff in the slider, close the tag with [/cSlider].

When you need more support, we could mail.

You wrote you like this plugin. So I think you used it in some other place.
Could you use it in e.g. posts or other pages?

If you have more problems please contact us via info[at]csundm.de and put “web support” in the subject. You’ll reach me then.

Best regards
Julian

I use WP as CMS, but my primary usage of cSlider would be in my custom PHP file of homepage.

My question is: Can I, and how to use cSlider in php file? I cannot use shortcode within php file. Is there any way to use cSlider in .php file?

Cslider works nice in my posts, but I would like to use it on my homepage too.

Hey!

Don’t you manage the content of these Pages via WirdPress?
If you manage the content via WordPress, you should be able to use shortcodes.

Currently there is no PHP implementation for cSlider.
Maybe we offer it in a further version.

But how do you manage the content of your static homepage?
Don’t you use the “out of the box” way from WordPress?!
You can build template pages for your WordPress theme, you can select in the backend.

I think we will provide PHP functionallity in the next version.
But the normal way would be to create a templat page for WordPress. Within these templates you can use shortcodes.

But I would like to know how you manage the content of the page you are talking about.

As I said before: if you need further informations or help, please contact us.
