Hello johnflufin and GHDesign,

Thanks for taking the time in reporting the issue. A fix is now available (2.12.2). Please update and let me know if it works so I can mark this as resolved.

@johnflufin Cyclone Slider works fine on PHP 5.2 but I encourage you to update to the latest PHP version. 5.2 is an antiquated PHP version and is no longer supported by the makers of PHP since 2011: http://php.net/eol.php

Best regards,

What is the PHP version?

What plugin do you use for uploading images to AWS?

Hallo,

Bitte aktualisieren Sie auf 2.12.1, um das Problem zu beheben.

Best regards,

Hi Juliette,

Thanks for taking the time to try this out and make it work.

The reason I decided to create the cycloneslider_view_vars filter instead of a vimeo-specific filter because cycloneslider_view_vars is a more generic filter. That means you can filter all aspects of the slideshow not just the vimeo embed code.

However, youre right. This results to much larger code if you want to filter just the vimeo embed code. I have a solution to offer in a form of a helper function.

Add the filter code below. In this example I added this in my current theme’s functions.php:

add_filter( 'cycloneslider_view_vars', 'myprefix_cycloneslider_view_vars' );
function myprefix_cycloneslider_view_vars( $vars ){

	$slides = isset($vars['slides']) ? $vars['slides'] : array();

	foreach($slides as $index=>$slide){
		$slides[$index]['vimeo_embed_code'] = filter_vimeo_embed_code( $slide );
	}
	$vars['slides'] = $slides;

	return $vars;
}

Notice that inside it we call the filter_vimeo_embed_code function which is specific to the embed code only.

The function, contains this code:

function filter_vimeo_embed_code( $slide ){

	$vimeo_url = 'http://player.vimeo.com/video/'.$slide['vimeo_id'].'?api=1&wmode=transparent'; // Do something here

	return '<iframe id="cycloneslider-vimeo-test-1-iframe-0" width="960" height="600" src="'.$vimeo_url.'" frameborder="0"  webkitAllowFullScreen mozallowfullscreen allowFullScreen></iframe>';

}

From now on you only have to worry about the code in filter_vimeo_embed_code function.

Does that solve your problem? If not, please send me your code via kosinix@codefleet.net.

PS. I dont maintain a github repo for CS2 at the moment as the plugin is already hosted at a svn in wordpress.org. It would be hard to maintain and sync two repo at the same time.

Best regards

Hello dr.ubisha,

Its well documented that editing the templates directly in plugins/cyclone-slider-2/templates is NOT RECOMMENDED. WordPress will replace the entire plugins/cyclone-slider-2 directory upon update. Thats just how WordPress updates work (or any plugins not just Cyclone Slider 2) and there is nothing I can do about it.

However, there have been various methods to safely modify a template like using the wp-content/cycloneslider folder and as of 2.11.0, using a sub plugin. Check the tutorial here: http://docs.codefleet.net/cyclone-slider-2/creating-your-own-template/

Hi dickey,

What template and plugin version are you using? I tried recreating your issue to no avail.
