Callback from WonderPlugin Gallery when a video is changed

Last updated on

Question:

* This question is for WonderPlugin Gallery Plugin.

I’d like to know if there is a way to get a call back from WonderPlugin when a video is changed in the gallery, this is to show related content to that specific video within the playlist.

Answer:

There are two events you can use:

onchange: The event will be be fired on changing the slide.
onvideoend: The event will be be fired when the video playing ends.

To use the events, firstly, you need to define a JavaScript function in your webpage, for example:

<script language="JavaScript">
    function onSlideChange(data) {
        try {
           console.log(data);
        } catch (error)   {}
    }
    function onVideoEnd(data) {
        try {
           console.log(data);
        } catch (error)   {}
    }
</script>

In the above code, data is the data array of current slide object, the definition is [index, Thumbnail address, File address, File address for video ogg file, Fire address for video webm file, Link address, Link target, Title, Description, Media type, Width, Height, Address for video poster image, Address for HD video, Address for HD Ogg file, Address for HD webm file].

Then in the plugin, Step 3, Options tab, Advanced Options, enter:

data-onchange="onSlideChange"
data-onvideoend="onVideoEnd"

WonderPlugin Slider

Question:

I just purchased the wonder plugin slider. It's great but I just have one question.

I am using the 'wordpress slider with text navigation' option. I was wondering if there was a way of changing that background red colour and the dark grey to my custom colours?

https://www.wonderplugin.com/wordpress-slider/examples/wordpress-slider-with-text-navigation-id33/

I have inspected the code and there doesn't seem to be a class I can associate a colour with.

Would really appreciate your help!

Answer:

In the plugin, step 3, Options tab, Advanced Options, you can enter the following text to the Data Options field:

data-navbordercolor="#dfdfdf"
data-navborderhighlightcolor="#a8162b"
data-navthumbtitlecss="display:block;position:relative;padding:14px;text-align:center;font-size:12px; text-transform:uppercase;color:#231f20;"
data-navthumbtitlehovercss="color:#fff;"
data-navshowfeaturedarrow="false"
data-timercolor="#dfdfdf"

The 1st line data-navbordercolor will change the background color of the thumbnail navigations.
The 2nd line data-navborderhighlightcolor will change the highlight color.
The 3rd line data-navthumbtitlecss can be used to change text size and format.
The 4th line data-navthumbtitlehovercss is to change to the text color of highlighted tabs
The 5th line data-navshowfeaturedarrow is to hide the red arrow.
The 6th line data-timercolor is to change the color of the bottom progress line.

Centring WordPress jQuery slider

Last updated on

Question:

I have uploaded one of your sliders on to my WordPress website that I am building for my company and I can't seem to work out how to centre it on the page.

I hope you can help me out.

Answer:

WonderPlugin Slider sets its margin-left and margin-right properties to auto, so it will center itself to its container by default.

If for some reason it does not center on your webpage, you can try to place the slider inside another div, then center the div, for example, you can use code as following:

<div style="width:100%;text-align:center;">
<div style="width:400px;margin:0 auto;">
[[wonderplugin_slider id="37"]]
</div>
</div>

In the above code, the outer div has a width property 100%, it will have the same width as your webpage.

The inner div should have the same width as your slider. The width value can be pixels, for example "400px", or in percent, for example "80%". Its margin property "0 auto" will place the inner div to the center of the outer div.

Macro for link target in WordPress Carousel plugin

Last updated on

Question:

We are following the tutorial: https://www.wonderplugin.com/wordpress-carousel/add-weblink-in-wordpress-carousel-content-template/

Is there a macro for the link target field? There are somethings we want _self and there are somethings we want _blank.

Answer:

Please upgrade the plugin to Version 3.0. The version 3.0 adds a macro __TARGET__.

Then in step 3, Options tab, Content template, you can use the __TARGET__ for the link target value you defined for each slide in step 1.

<div class="amazingcarousel-image">__IMAGE__</div>
<div class="amazingcarousel-title">__TITLE__</div>
<p class="amazingcarousel-readmore"><a href="__HREF__" target="__TARGET__">Read More</a></p>

Moving WordPress hosting

Last updated on

Question:

We moved hosting for a website that we were using the WonderPlugin Carousel. The carousel information was lost in the transfer.

I still have access to the old server files. Is there a place where I can go and find the old carousel files and copy them over to the new host? Or am I screwed and have to rebuild all of them?

Answer:

The carousel information are saved in the WordPress database, the table name is wp_wonderplugin_carousel.

If you move your database together with your website files, then it's supposed to work fine.

Actually, WordPress is database driven. Most of your website content are saved in the WordPress database, for example, the posts and pages content. So if you move the hosting, you need to move the database together with the files.

Show the carousel above the gallery

Last updated on

Question:

I've just found out about your Photo & Video Gallery recently and I absolutely love it. I'm considering buying the commercial licence but before I do, I want to check with you about a feature that I can't figure out.

I am using the skin Gallery. In Gallery Options, there's a 'Show Thumbnail Carousel" checkbox, which only shows the carousel below the main display. I would love to have the carousel above it, but I don't see an option for that. Is this possible at all, perhaps through CSS? Thanks for your help and looking forward to hearing from you.
