As of version 1.0.1, Arturo comes with three jQuery slideshows pre-installed. By default, the front page will display the Faderota slideshow, which fades from one image to the next. You can easily change this to the Scrollerota or Sliderota slideshow by just adding a simple piece of code to the Custom Actions editor.
Here is the arturo_slideshow() code and all of its arguments:
$args = array( 'type' => 'faderota', 'cat' => '', 'postnum' => 4, 'width' => theme_option('content_width'), 'height' => 260, 'excerpt' => 35 ); arturo_slideshow($args);
Every argument can be customized for your needs. Here is the block of code I used to change the demo to display the Scrollerota slideshow:
remove_action('arturo_index_top', 'arturo_index_top_slideshow'); add_action('arturo_index_top', 'new_index_top_slideshow'); function new_index_top_slideshow() { global $paged; $args = array( 'type' => 'scrollerota', 'cat' => '1' ); if(is_home() && $paged < 2) arturo_slideshow($args); }
Notice that I have added a conditional statement that will only display the slideshow on the front page and no subsequent pages.
If I would have wanted to add the Sliderota plugin instead, it would have looked like this:
remove_action('arturo_index_top', 'arturo_index_top_slideshow'); add_action('arturo_index_top', 'new_index_top_slideshow'); function new_index_top_slideshow() { global $paged; $args = array( 'type' => 'sliderota', 'cat' => '1' ); if(is_home() && $paged < 2) arturo_slideshow($args); }
