Repository metrics are context, not quality scores. Active installations measure adoption and can strongly reflect a plugin’s age and historical popularity. Ratings, recent updates and “Tested up to” metadata also do not guarantee modern code, error-free operation, security, feature completeness or suitability for a particular site.

Overview

About this plugin

The WP-Cycle Plus Captions plugin allows you to upload images from your computer, which will then be used to generate a jQuery Cycle Plugin slideshow.

Each image can be given a URL, the active image will then work just like your basic text link. The slideshow is set to pause when the user hovers over the slideshow images, giving them ample time to click the link.

New!

Now each image can now be assigned a caption. Each caption will display below its parent image as they rotate.

Troubleshooting

Internet Explorer Display issue

Images may appear blank or hidden. Check your themes style sheet for IMG { max-width:100%; } and comment or remove it.
