To use the Easing Slider you can use the following methods:

Shortcode in posts:

Image Source:

You can change many of the sliders settings from the "Easing Slider" control panel in the WordPress administration panel. Once the plugin is activated a new tab called "Easing Slider" emerges in the WordPress admin control panel. Under the tab "Usage Settings" there is a section called "Get images from?". Here there is a dropdown menu with which you can select three different sources to get images from. These are:

Custom Fields (Selected Category): Allows you to use custom fields to specify an image from each post to be displayed on the slider from a particular category only. To display an image use the custom field name "easing" followed by the URL of the image in the value field. You can only upload ONE custom field per post.

Custom Fields (All Categories): This option displays images from custom fields with the name "easing" from all categories, then enter the URL of the image in the value field.

Custom Images: This allows you to use a maximum of ten custom images specified in the "Custom Images" tab. Here you can enter your own URL to specific images of insert images from your media library. This panel also gives you a preview of all the custom images that will be displayed on the slider.

Adding an image

Note: You can only use one custom field per post.

Custom Fields: If you are NOT using custom images you can insert images into the slider via Custom Fields. To do this, insert "easing" into the Custom field name field followed by the URL of the image in the value field. You can only insert one image per post.

Custom Images tab: If you have selected "Custom Images" as your source you can now use the custom images tab. To insert images from this tab onto the slider simply paste the link into the text box and then clicking "save changes". Alternatively you can use the "upload image" button which uses WordPress's built in media library. Once you uploaded the image click "insert into post" to insert the image URL into the next available text box. Then click "save changes" after each one.
