[Plugin: Meteor Slides] adding caption to page slides but not header slides

  • Hi there,

    I’m just wondering if it is possible to have caoptions on some sets of slides, but not others. Basically I would like to be able to display captions on the slideshows that are on my pages but not have them on what is effectively my revolving header.

    Currently I have used CSS within the plugin’s own sylesheet to get captions but it is adding them to all slides (which i guess is what i’m asking it to do!).

    The site that I’m building is .

    Any help would be gratefully recieved!

    Many thanks,

    Sarah.

    Hi Sarah, you could add a PHP conditional to the template so that the captions are excluded, but the simplest solution would be to hide the captions in the header using CSS:

    #meteor-slideshowheader p {
	display: none;
}

    And don’t forget to use a custom stylesheet, if you edit the files in the plugin itself, you will lose those changes when you update the plugin.

    Hi Josh,

    Sorry – just one more thing – I love the flexibility that this plug in gives i.e. being able to use different sized slideshows etc but I was just wondering if you have any plans to get it uploading more than one image at a time?

    As you have probably seen from the site i’ve been working on I have put a lot of images up and it has taken a reasonably long time!

    Anyway – thanks for all your help with the plugin – I’ll make a donation to help with future development! ??

    Thanks Sarah, donations are always appreciated!

    I haven’t thought too much about streamlining that process, I’m anticipating that as handling media with WordPress improves, it will improve with my plugin as well.

    One thing you can do that simplifies the process a bit is to upload all of the slide images to the media library at once, then you just need to create the slide posts and select your image from the library rather than having to upload it as you create the slide.
