Question

i built up a wordpress theme and inserted an imageslider to this. The Images are still static but i would like to define them on every wordpress-page. I may could filter the page ID in the template-header and define the images dynamically.

Now im searching for a method to dynamically define them in the pageeditor in the backend of wordpress. So that the customer can change them himself for every page.
Is there already a plugin for this problem or any other easy solutions?

thanks and greatings

There is some great slider plugins already out there. WooThemes’s one being one of my favourite. It is $35 though.

If you’ve already got it all setup though, and just need to be able to do it dynamically, then you could use a plugin like Attachments. You can just have it call the attachments for the current page/post, and use those images. If you NEED to have a slider on every page, then check for attachments on the current page/post, and if there is none, then request the ones for the home page. Done and done. Well I hope so, not sure if I read your question correctly… Hope this helps but 🙂
