New Sponsors Slideshow Widget

May 13th, 2009

I found some time to work a little bit on the Sponsors Slideshow Widget Plugin. In this new version I switched to using the jQuery Cycle Plugin. I think the bug in IE with displaying the first slide only half is now gone. Further it brings several new fade effects. Besides this new Widget title is now set manually. If left empty, no title will be displayed. Finally I’ve worked on the display function so that it should be possible to display the widget manually with the following code example:

sponsors_slideshow_widget_display(array(

‘number’ => 1,

‘category’ => catID,

‘widget_title’ => ‘Here goes the title’,

‘fade’ => ‘fade’,

‘time’ => 5,

‘width’ => 200,

‘height’ => 100,

order => 0

));

number is a unique integer to identify widget, catID is the ID of the link category to display, fade is any valid fade effect, time in seconds between images, width and height of slideshow in pixel, order can be 0 for sequential or 1 for random ordering of images.
