Plugins

The plugins site is currently in development.

We've been looking to provide a higher-quality, spam-free experience at the plugins site for some time, and a major error on our part forced us to shut down the current site before we could put the new one in place. We are developing a new site, and you can follow along with its development on GitHub. For more information about this transition, including steps you can take as a plugin author to prepare, please read our post about what's going on.

jFlow - The Ultra-lightweight Fluid Content Slider for jQuery


jFlow is a widget to make your content slides. One popular alternative that exists out there is coda-slider. jFlow is super lightweight because it is only 1.9kb minified!!!.

$("#myController").jFlow({
    slides: "#mySlides",
    width: "99%",
    height: "200px",
    duration: 400
});

Explanation:

#myController: the div where all the slide controller are nested in
slides:  the div where all your sliding divs are nested in (note: you can define classes for each div inside slides)
width: can be specified in px or % (required)
height: can be specified in px (required)
duration: time in miliseconds to transition one slide (optional, default is 400)

2 divs created by jFlow as containers, you can style them to your liking

#jFlowSlide: This is the container where all the slides reside
.jFlowSelected: This is the current activated controller

Special div definition

.jFlowPrev: Any element with this class will transition to previous slide upon clicking
.jFlowNext: Any element with this class will transition to next slide upon clicking
.jFlowControl: Any element inside the controlling div with this class will map to the corresponding slide

Example

<script language="javascript">
$(document).ready(function(){
    $("#myController").jFlow({
        slides: "#mySlides",
        width: "99%",
        height: "200px",
        duration: 400
    });
});
</script>

<div id="myController">
   <span class="jFlowControl">No 1 </span>
   <span class="jFlowControl">No 2 </span>
   <span class="jFlowControl">No 3 </span>
   <span class="jFlowControl">No 4 </span>
</div>

<div id="mySlides">
   <div>First Slide</div>
   <div>Second Slide </div>
   <div>Third Slide </div>
   <div>Fourth Slide </div>
</div>

<span class="jFlowPrev">Prev</span>
<span class="jFlowNext">Next</span>
