jquery slideshow

From MoodleDocs

The Slideshow block enables the user (Teacher or Administrator) to display a folder containing and kind of image type as an advanced slideshow with image transitions. (with no need for a flash plugin!)

It supports:

  • Setting the images folder (of course!).
  • Setting width and height of the block.
  • Setting the type of transition. ( a few are hard coded into the code. and more are very easy to add)
  • Setting the delay, between transitions.
  • Image type filtering. (disabled by default)
  • System-wide/specific pages - block availability. (disabled by default)
  • Based on jQuery Cycle plugin which means : no flash need, works on any browser, any image type, many different types of transition effects. It supports pause-on-hover, auto-stop, auto-fit, before/after callbacks, click triggers and much more. It also supports, but does not require, the Metadata Plugin and the Easing Plugin. (see features demo)
