[Plugin: Smooth Slider] Maximum content size

Howdy,

First of all I want to say that this plug-in is very nice. I’m very happy with it. So thanks for that!

I do have a suggestion tho. When you set a maximum content size the text gets cut off from the exact number of maximum content size. So if you have the text: “Welcome to my website” and you have a maximum content size of 16 you get the text “Welcome to my we”. It would be much prettier if it would cut off the whole word, if that word exceeds the maximum content size. So “Welcome to my website” becomes “Welcome to my”.

Also, when the text gets cut off, it just, well, cuts off. It would be prettier if you could set-up a text to display after that. For instance, instead of “Welcome to my” you would see “Welcome to my(…)”.

That last suggestion I have already fixed myself, simply by adjusting line 342 of smooth-slider.php to: $html .= ‘<h2 >‘.$post_title.’</h2><span> ‘.substr($slider_content,0,$smooth_slider[‘content_chars’]).'(…)</span>

But it would be awesome if users could change that with a simple textbox in the configuration page.

Let me know what you think, thanks for reading.

Greetings,

Peter
