josh1178 10 Report post Posted May 11, 2011 I'm looking to create a feature slider inside of a feature. - Can someone tell me if this is possible already using Platform with some simple modifications or shortcode? - If not, can someone recommend a plugin that works like the feature sliders in Platform? I've found plenty of jquery image sliders, but I need to be able to put html inside of the slider, not just images. - If I need to manually setup jquery to do this, can someone point me in the right direction? I see lots of jquery slider codes, but don't know which is best. Something that doesn't preload would be ideal. Thanks in advance! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
ricardo 0 Report post Posted May 11, 2011 Hi Josh! That doesn't make a lot of sense... Do you want to have a slider inside another slider? Ricardo Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Sourena 2 Report post Posted May 11, 2011 You are able to put html inside of the slider. Check the feature's page: alefba.usWeb Development & Design for Right-to-Left languages Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
josh1178 10 Report post Posted May 11, 2011 Ricardo, yes, I'd like a slider inside of a slider. Sourena, thank you, but that wasn't my question. So, Slider 1 would have a product, with four slides, selectable via thumbnails. I can do this with tabs, but I'd rather have sliders. I have successfully done this with a nivoslider plugin already, but it only allows for pictures, not html. I also have put the slidedecks.com plugin inside of the features which works, but it is expensive and isn't quite what I'm looking for style-wise. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

josh1178 10 Report post Posted May 12, 2011 Thanks, I'll look into that one. Here is a list of others that fit the bill as well. http://codecanyon.net/searches?term=slider&type=files Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
ricardo 0 Report post Posted May 12, 2011 Looking at the plugins I get even more confused... where does the feature slider fail you that you need something else? Ricardo Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
josh1178 10 Report post Posted May 12, 2011 Hi Ricardo, thanks for trying. Within a feature I need a slide or tab system. This way I can feature a product and have slides or tabs load more info inside the feature without leaving the page. I think I will end up using a jquery tab plugin to do so as it appears t be the best option. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
ricardo 0 Report post Posted May 12, 2011 Can't you achieve that with feature sets and feature thumbs? Ricardo Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
josh1178 10 Report post Posted May 12, 2011 I don't think it is possible, unless I can put features/tabs inside of a feature. It needs to be like this: Product 1 SLIDE INFO SLIDE VIDEO SLIDE SYSTEM REQUIREMENTS SLIDE Product 2 SLIDE INFO SLIDE VIDEO SLIDE SYSTEM REQUIREMENTS SLIDE Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
ricardo 0 Report post Posted May 12, 2011 Maybe I'm missing something but I just see 8 slides that can be inside the same feature set and cycle in that order =) Ricardo Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
josh1178 10 Report post Posted May 13, 2011 That's because we'll have about 6 or 7 products with about 4 slides/tabs each. I think we'll go with this one for anyone else in a similar position: http://codecanyon.net/item/sliding-tabs-jquery-plugin/full_screen_preview/141774 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
