Dynamic Content Gallery

Author: Ade Walker, Studiograsshopper

This plugin creates a dynamic gallery of images for latest and/or featured Posts or Pages using either the JonDesign SmoothGallery script for mootools, or the Galleryview script for jQuery. By associating your gallery images with individual Posts or Pages, using custom fields, the plugin dynamically creates the gallery from your latest and/or featured content. Additionally, default images can be displayed in the event that the necessary custom fields have not been created. A Dashboard Settings page gives access to a comprehensive range of options for populating the gallery and configuring its look and behaviour.

Compatible with Wordpress Mu but with some differences in features compared with the Wordpress version. Requires WP/WPMU version 2.8+.

All support is handled at the Studiograsshopper Forum. I do not have time to monitor the wordpress.org forums, therefore please post any questions on my site's forum.
