Title: Zen-Carousel Author: sirpengi Published: March 5, 2010 Last modified: March 5, 2010 --- Search plugins This plugin **hasn’t been tested with the latest 3 major releases of WordPress**. It may no longer be maintained or supported and may have compatibility issues when used with more recent versions of WordPress. ![](https://s.w.org/plugins/geopattern-icon/zen-carousel.svg) # Zen-Carousel By [sirpengi](https://profiles.wordpress.org/sirpengi/) [Download](https://downloads.wordpress.org/plugin/zen-carousel.0.1.1.zip) * [Details](https://wordpress.org/plugins/zen-carousel/#description) * [Reviews](https://wordpress.org/plugins/zen-carousel/#reviews) * [Installation](https://wordpress.org/plugins/zen-carousel/#installation) * [Development](https://wordpress.org/plugins/zen-carousel/#developers) [Support](https://wordpress.org/support/plugin/zen-carousel/) ## Description Dojo-powered carousel plugin for WordPress. Initially started out as a modification of XEN Carousel, but I made so many edits (and switched JS backend to Dojo) that no code of the original plugin remains. Showcase images on the front of your site, with arbitrary links Dojo powered (all other WP plugins seem to be JQuery-based) Graceful fallback behavior (if JS is not enabled then static first image w/ link is still visible) Navigation for quick jumping (ala Steam showcase) In its current state, integration requires some measure of manual setup. Please be patient (and submit requests) as later updates will bring smoother install. Please see http://bitbucket.org/sirpengi/zen-carousel/ for latest code, reporting bugs or requesting features. ### License The Zen-Carousel plugin was developed by Shu Zong Chen of freelancedreams.com.

Install plugin through WordPress interface or by extracting files to `/wp-content/ plugins/` 2. Activate plugin through ‘Plugins’ menu in WordPress 3. Visit admin page, a new section ‘Carousel’ in the sidebar should lead you to configuration page. 4. Please make sure ‘Use CDN’ is checked (This will pull Dojo library from google CDN, if you already include Dojo in your page through other means, leave this unchecked). 5. Set width/height dimensions of your carousel. 6. Input data (this is currently done through a manual textarea field, see ‘Faq’ for syntax. 7. Add `` in your theme where you want the carousel to be. ## FAQ Options Use Dojo CDN: check unless your theme already includes Dojo Carousel Width: width of carousel Carousel Height: height of carousel Carousel Setup The setup uses the following line format: ``` <Image url> is the url (absolute or relative) to the image <Link to> is the url that clicking this photo will lead to. <Title> for accessibility, shows up as tooltip for image/link ``` Separate each value with a space. The code only splits into three parts so spaces in the ‘Title’ are allowed. For example: ``` http://domain.com/image/slide1.png http://domain.com/coolpage/ This is my cool page http://domain.com/image/slide2.png http://domain.com/coolpage2/ This is my 2nd cool page http://domain.com/image/slide3.png http://domain.com/coolpage3/ This is my 3rd cool page ``` ## Reviews There are no reviews for this plugin. ## Contributors & Developers “Zen-Carousel” is open source software.
