Camera slideshow ver. 1.0.0
Documentation
Hi there, thankyou fordownloading Camera... and excuse me formy bad english :-)__Manuel
Requirements
Camera can be used for simple slideshows but also for powerful slideshows, with many effects, TimThumb. large slideshows, videos... Many effects means many resources, for instance: using grid transitions with the fade effect on large slideshows can slow the performances dramatically.
So my recommendation is: try to use the right amount of effects to not compromise the user experience.
Camera is written and validate in HTML5. I can‘t validate it by using something else because Camera needs the data custom attributes. available for HTML5 only.
Camera requires
• Wordpress 3+
• PHP5.2+
• jQuery 1.4+
l'm not the developer of TimThumb. I only tried to integrate it into this plugin. TimThumb is a PHP script to resize the images on the fly. By using it you can run all the risks deriving from the use of this kind of Scripts. If your server allows that I recommend to use the “no-cache" version, morę safe. Otherwise use the “cache" version and remember to set the file permissions of this folder:
wp-content / plugins / camera / scripts / cache
to 777. If nevertheless TimThumb gives you problems, try to set the file permissions to 755 or 644.
Be surę that your WordPress address (URL) is the same URL you can read on the address bar of your browser. Maybe you typed in Settings -> General your site address including the "www". but your server redirects the user to a link without “www". In this case TimThumb retums an error because it thinks that you are trying to resize images from another site.
If you can't fix the problem by yourself, contact your proyider: maybe they set some blocks for this kind of scripts.
TimThumb is not indispensable, you can upload images and thumbnails of the right size instead of resizing them on the fly. So, if you prefer, just disable it.
I already talked about TimThumb question here above. In this case you can decide to use on not to use TimThumb, depending on your server settings, your cares about the safety, your preferences.
Once decided you want to use TimThumb, the next step is to decide to use the "cache" directory or not. If you don't want to use the cache directory, then TimThumb will use the server temp directory. This is not always usable (based upon server configurations) so the cache directory may sometimes be reguired.
You can also disable ColorBox by Jack L. Moore (http://iacklmoore.eom/colorbox/t and the customized yersion of jQuery Mobile, if these plugins generate any conflict with somethict else.
Maybe the theme you are using or some other plugins could include the jOuery library in a wrong way, or they use an old version. This could generate a conflict and Camera couldn't work.
You can try to fix this problem by loading all the scripts of Camera (including a recent version of jOuery) on the footer of your theme. Just switch on this field.
Of course I can't foresee any particular case. I wrote some CSS codę, but sometimes the settings of a Wordpress theme can overwrite these values. So in some cases you probably must adjust the styles.
All the slideshows have got an ID. If you called your slideshow My Slideshow. for instance, its ID will be camera_my-slideshow.
With the use of the inspector tool on any browser, you can easily know what element you must change. On Chrome, Safari and Opera: right click of the mouse and then “Inspect element''. On Firefox: use FireBug. On IE: press F12.
