There is actually a simpler and more efficient way to control formatting in WordPress posts. Take a look how…

The default template, inside single.php has this php code to request the post content:

<?php the_content('<p class="serif">Read the rest of this entry &raquo;
'); ?>

If we wanna fully control the output, we call get_the_content instead of just the_content. get_the_content outputs a string, so it’s easier to manipulate it than the_content (which is not a string):

<?php echo strip_tags(nl2br(get_the_content('')),"<img><b><strong><i><em><a>"); ?>

In the above example, I’m fetching the post content, create br’s from the carriage returns put by WordPress and then strip all tags except the once specified at the end (<img><b><strong><i><em><a>) . I make sure to add there again, so it won’t be stripped (obviously).

Hope this helps someone. ??

The new version of Frontpage Slideshow has introduced 2 new slideshow engines to avoid such conflicts, plus new templates and a new easier way to admin your slides’ content. You may check out the official website at https://www.frontpageslideshow.net or see the WordPress demo we’ve prepared on https://www.frontpageslideshow.net/demos/wordpress.

The standalone version (v2.0) is coming in June 2008 and if all goes well, a native WordPress version will be out within the summer. ??

Sure! Once you purchase the pack, upload everything to the root of your wordpress site. Then take a single line of code (a php include) and insert it in your WordPress template. Go to your WordPress home page and you see a demo slideshow. Now all you need to do is just insert text, links and images to a commented html file. That’s it.

An update
Since we’ve had recently quite many WordPress users buying Frontpage Slideshow (FPSS) and successfully integrating it to WP, we’ve already started development and will release in September a standalone version which utilizes a backend to create multiple slideshows and insert them into your site without playing around with HTML anymore. This will make it easier to use FPSS in other CMS/Forum scripts (e.g. Drupal, XOOPS, vBulletin etc.) as well -besides WP- or even plain static websites. All existing FPSS customers will get this updated version for free, as we’ve already done so far. ??
Enjoy!

https://sbs.is/ is using “Frontpage Slideshow”, actually (JJ Rasper template on) ??

For more info, please visit https://www.joomlaworks.gr.

The “Frontpage Slideshow” is entirely dependant on CSS and supports templates (6 included already). So you can easily style it the way you want. See the examples mentioned on https://www.joomlaworks.gr.

Thanks.

Actually, JoomlaWorks does have a non-joomla version available, which can easily be integrated on WordPress, simply by including one line of code in your template.

This website https://www.shaydoron.net is based on WordPress and uses the “Frontpage Slideshow” by JoomlaWorks.
