So I'm working with the Supersized! plugin from here: plugin link
The default way to load images is up top through Javascript. My question is, does anyone know of a way to load in a specific folder? So the plugin pulls all the images in that folder regardless if there's 5 or 50...
One step further: Ideally, I would love to have 4 "Galleries", each being images inside a folder, then I can build a navigation where when someone clicks, for example, the "landscape" section, it loads all the images in the landscape folder. So the whole site would be a single page.
WIP site here, just manually adding images: hieldphotography.com/new/
Thanks in advance.
use a server side language like PHP to collect all files in the folder, then build the array/string and print it on the page.
Here is the very simple way of doing this..
function getAllImagesInDirectory($path) {
if ($handle = opendir($path)) {
$images = "[";
while (false !== ($file = readdir($handle))) {
if($file !== "." && $file !== "..") {
$images .= "{image : '$path$file', title : '', url : ''},";
}
}
closedir($handle);
return substr($images,0,strlen($images)-1) . "]";
}
}
and then in your code replace the
slides : [ //Slideshow Images
{image : 'images/people/people1.jpg', title : '', url : ''},
... snippet
{image : 'images/people/people35.jpg', title : '', url : ''}
]
with
slides : <?php echo getAllImagesInDirectory("images/people/"); ?>
