Mini-Slides for Layout Consistensy
August 2nd, 2007
Sometimes, website designers won’t allow content developers to add Images anywhere within the text layout. They’d rather prefer a consistent method to display them. There are hundreds of “inline image gallery plugins” out there. So this is mine: The Mini-Slides Plugin.
- it is really lightweight, slick and simple (and therefore easy customizable)
- integrates with the wordpress upload feature
- integrates with Lightbox2 for Wordpress
- offers content filter as well as template-tag
Demo: here and this post itself
Download: Mini-Slides
Version: 1.0
Usage:
- As always: download, unzip and upload to your WordPress plugins directory
- activate the plugin within you WordPress Administration Backend
- Write or edit a post or page and upload images to that page via the editor’s upload form
- Make use of [ minislides ] within the page’s content
Make use of <?php dprx_display_minislides(); ?> within your single.php, page.php and other templatetemplate tag is deprecated. No minislides within the sidebar until widget support with the next release.

Hi,
I don’t know how to use this plugin. I wrote [minislides] in the post, but the slide shows all pictures I uploaded. How can I tell to the plugin which pictures should be showed?

@Carsten:
In this version of Mini-Slides, the plugin shows ALL images attached to a post or page. An option to specify a custom set of images might com in a future version.
