    I love WP Carousel, great plugin. However, the code is a little complex for my poor PHP skills. I am trying to use WP Carousel for my navigation (just like Flickr navigation). My problem is that I need WP Carousel to only show posts from the current page ($posts). I did a hack to only show the correct categories but I can’t do anything for search results.
    I would also need to possibility to order the posts by date/most viewed/most commented/etc… and it would work great with search plugins like WP Smart Sort (https://www.ads-software.com/extend/plugins/wp-smart-sort/) if only WP Carousel could show the list of current $posts.

    Any tips?

  • I think that, for those purposes, it would be simplier to use jCarousel (or StepCarousel) without WP Carousel because WP Carousel is totally focused to add “static” (well, it is not static as far as if you edit a post or a page added to the carousel, changed will be reflected inmediatly) content to the carousel.

    Of course, you can do that with WP Carousel, but you will have to do a lot of modifications that will be lost if you update WP Carousel to a newer version.

    In a few days (maybe a week or two) I’ll release the documentation of WP Carousel 1.0. In the documentation I’ll explain how to create Extras and Themes for WP Carousel, so if you want to use WP Carousel to do that, you can wait until I release the docs and read them. They could help you to do what you want.

    Thanks sumolari, I will look up jCarousel and StepCarousel first. Great job with WPCarousel anyway.
