    Hi,

    islidex does everything I need a slider plugin to do, but I can't get my images to show up in the slider. I have read other threads relating to this, and have seen that non locally hosted images can't be used. My images are local to my domain, but they are not always added to my posts. I am not leeching anyone's images. Is there a way to get these images to show up?

    Here is an example slider:

    I tried specifying an image path with the extra islidex_slide and islidex_thumb, but no luck with that either. Is there some way I can use these images? They are my own, and locally hosted, just not attached to the post, just linked into it instead.

    Thanks,

    Adnan

    What you want can be achieved exactly by adding the custom fields islidex_slide and islidex_thumb (thumbs will only work for islidex templates with thumbs obviously).

    You add a new custom field to a post, name of field is islidex_slide and value the direct link to the image (like http://www.yoursite.com/something/upload/yourimage.jpg)

    Let me know if this doesnt work.
