WordPress.org

1. Upload the folder containing xili-floom-slideshow.php and other sub-folders and files to the /wp-content/plugins/ directory.
2. Activate the plugin.
3. If you want to personalize the look and size of the frame of the slideshow, don't modify the default css and files present inside plugin's folder. Create a floom folder (and a css sub-folder) inside your current theme. Inside this, copy the floom.css, spiner.gif and frame bg image that you can adapt. xili-floom-slideshow plugin will detect automatically this folder.

Personalizations

Some Custom fields are possible: floom_divs to set id of the div containing images ; floom_captions (true or false) to display or not the caption (title) of the images ; floom_progressbar (true or false) to show (or not) the progress bar. floom_title_desc is set by default to 1 and display the title of the attached images. (2 : only the description and 3 : both title and description).

• floom_parentID to choose attachment from another post (and not the current post where slideshow in inserted)
• floom_subname to sub-select a series of pictures attached by set a mask (use % as LIKE in SQL %img or %pict%...) See post.
• floom_container to inform name of container (default : blinds-cont).
• floom_display to decide if the container is displayed when no image (block or none) - default : block.

The following custom fields (prefix floom_) work like javascript parameters. Use them with caution..

• floom_amount (number of blinds)
• floom_interval (interval between change)
• floom_axis (by default : vertical)

It is also possible to fireEvent (onSlideChange and onPreload) by choosing name of fired functions (javascript added by functions in current theme).

Example of parameters in shortcode:

[xilifloom frame_id="mondrian-top-left" blinds_id="mblinds" captions="false" children="211" amount="20" ]

multiple flooms example here !

Gold parameters If active in plugin settings, a wide range of features are open for special js effects on first or last slide and on other events of the child class... see this post
