XMod Pro Module Kit - jQuery Image Slideshow Plugin: SlidesJS
As an example kit to show off the flexibility of XMod Pro templates when creating module items for DotNetNuke like an image slider, image gallery or slideshow, we have put together an example using our example data set and the popular jQuery image slider,
SlidesJS.
Module Description:
A quote from their showcase website, describes
SlidesJS as,
"...a slideshow plugin for jQuery that is built with simplicity in mind. Packed with a useful set of features to help novice and advanced developers alike create elegant and user-friendly slideshows." - Oman Clark, SlideJS
Uses:
It can be used to display any type of image gallery. There is no fixed limit to the number of images in the slideshow, as it will add icons/slides for every image returned in the recordset. Use this as a base code to create your own customized module or use it as a resource for tips and tricks for building your own XMod Pro solution!

Next, add the kit module to a page. Finally, click the module's "Finish Installation" button to complete the process. The result will be an XMod Pro module instance, configured to use the kits forms, templates, and feeds as needed.
