Slideshow module for SilverStripe 3.1 that implements back-end support for slideshows/carousels/sliders. For the sake of demonstration it comes with an plug-and-play example using [slick](https://github.com/kenwheeler/slick). It can easily be removed without disrupting functionality. More about this further down under the [slick](https://github.com/kreationsbyran/KBSlideshow#slick) heading.

### Installation

[](#installation)

As a general rule of thumb it can be a good idea to back up your database and log into your site as Admin before installing modules, so even though nothing should break, feel free to do so.

##### Requirements

[](#requirements)

- SilverStripe 3.1

##### Using Composer

[](#using-composer)

1. Open a terminal and `cd` to your SilverStripe root.
2. Run `composer require kreationsbyran/kb-slideshow`.
3. Go to  (replace "your.site" with the url of your website)

##### Manually

[](#manually)

1. Download the zipped master branch ([here](https://github.com/kreationsbyran/KBSlideshow/archive/master.zip)).
2. Move the contents into the root directory of your SilverStripe installation.
3. Go to  (replace "your.site" with the url of your website)

##### Additionally (optional)

[](#additionally-optional)

KBSlideshow works well together with [SortableGridField](https://github.com/UndefinedOffset/SortableGridField) which allows for drag-and-drop sorting of the slides.

### Usage

[](#usage)

##### In Template

[](#in-template)

Using `` in your SilverStripe template will include the default template. You can easily replace or edit this template.

```
/templates/includes/KBSlideshow.ss markup ouput

├──div.kbslideshow (if exists)
|  └──div.kbslide  (loop)
|     ├──img       (if exists)
|     ├──h1        (if exists)
|     └──p         (if exists)

```

##### In CMS

[](#in-cms)

The module extends Page and once installed it will create a tab called "Slideshow" in the CMS of all Pages.

"Image rescale width/height" will set the ratio of all slides to width:height if both options are set. If only one is set, the images will be cropped using SilverStripes `Image.SetWidth()` or `Image.SetHeight()` functions. If none are set the selected image won't be rescaled or cropped and can result in heavy load. Recommended to set at least one if slideshow contains images.

### Slick

[](#slick)

The module comes bundled with a demonstration using [slick](https://github.com/kenwheeler/slick). To remove the coupling between the module and slick in order to use a different slideshow/slider/carousel library, simply follow these two steps:

1. Remove `/templates/includes/KBSlick.ss`.
2. Remove `` from `/templates/includes/KBSlideshow.ss`.

##### Settings

[](#settings)

If you wish to keep using slick, you'll find the settings located in `/templates/includes/KBSlick.ss`. There is currently no back-end support for managing slick settings but can easily be added by modifying the KBSlideshow class.
