I am a beginner in web mastering. Please tell me in simple words how to configure the widget FlexSlider - what html and CSS are needed so that slide show is taking place in the header of my page. www.naszchleb.pl/test2 . I want a slide show in the place of the header picture (the picture with loaves of breads). I have downloaded the flexslider widget into my dremweaver CS6 and have 5 pictures of identical size as the current header picture, which I want them to be part of the slideshow. I want the automatic slideshow only, with these 5 (or more) pictures moving vertically to start with. No thumbnails pictures. Thanks in advance for your guidance.
I looked at it before the post here, I have opened it now as well, I am not sure if I understand it well enough e.g.
For the 1st step, do I copy and paste the below into the head ?
<link rel="stylesheet" href="flexslider.css" type="text/css">
<script src="https://ajax.googleapis.com/ajax/libs/jquery/1.6.2/jquery.min.js"></script>
<script src="jquery.flexslider.js"></script>
Currenlty in the head I have styles. Do Copy it right after and before </head> ?
<head>
<meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=utf-8">
<title>Untitled Document</title>
<link href="Styles.css" rel="stylesheet" type="text/css">
</head>
In your page, change this -
</head>
to this -
<!-- Place somewhere in the <head> of your document -->
<link rel="stylesheet" href="flexslider.css" type="text/css">
<script src="https://ajax.googleapis.com/ajax/libs/jquery/1.6.2/jquery.min.js"></script>
<script src="jquery.flexslider.js"></script>
<!-- Place in the <head>, after the three links -->
|
</head>
That completes step 1 and step 3.
Then change this -
<div id="header"><img src="images/header.jpg" width="960" height="310" alt="bbb"></div>
to this -
<div id="header" class="flexslider">
<ul class="slides">
<li><img src="images/header.jpg" width="960" height="310" alt="bbb"></li>
<li><img src="..."></li>
<li><img src="..."></li>
<li><img src="..."></li>
<li><img src="..."></li>
</ul>
</div>
The slider is installed. Now to make it work the way you want (vertical slide), change this -
$('.flexslider').flexslider();
to this -
$('.flexslider').flexslider({
animation:slide });
and you will be well on your way. See how it looks.

Hi
I have followed the above steps, please see the link , all the pictures are one below each other, unless I messed up the code, the dots on the left hand side, beside each picture may indicate that maybe a style is missing that would put all of them horizontally, however I maybe as well mistaken.
Thanks in advance
It looks like my instructions were not complete. You need both the linked CSS file and the linked javascript file still!
They can both be found here - https://github.com/woothemes/flexslider. Download both of these into the root level of your local site, then upload them to the server and you should be good to go.
Hello
Have tried to apply the above instruction to the sidebar1 (rightside in the middle) and have encountered the following 3 problems with the site and design view in my Adobe CS6 which generates the site.
my site: http://naszchleb.pl/test16
1. Although I have put into my root folder all above downloads related to flexslider and followed the instruction I cannot see the flexslider.css in the CSS pannel of my Adobe DW CS6, I can only see in there the name flexslide.css but I cannot open its style items from the CSS pannel, it has not got the plus sign aside ,which normally allows to open and modify the indvidual styles. Instead, I can see on my designview for this site on its top the following: jquery.flexslider-minflexsliderjquery.flexslider. it looks like I have messed up the download but do not know how to correct it despite numerous trials,
2. In the design view all the pictures show one below the other with dots aside each one on the left and this is probably not correct,
3. On the site after the ulpoad into the server , when I open it there is a white border around the pictures which I would like to remove but do know how due to problem described in point 1.
4. When you view the site ,I would like to make invisible dots from below the pictures but I do not know how due to the problem in the point 1.
Please guide how to fix the problems in points: 1, 2 and 3,4.
Thank you in advance.
