    Slideshow manager is a CMP (custom manager page) and snippet for MODX Revolution. The manager allows you to easily upload new slides and schedule them based on start date and end date. You can also just put slides in a TBD (to be determined). Slideshow Manager allows you to have as many slides shows, called albums, as you want on your site.

    Features

    • Schedule slides by date
    • Managed slide show in the MODX Manager as a Custom Manager Page
    • Manage many slides shows(albums) from one place
    • Optionally force or constrain images to be an exact size and program will auto resize uploaded images if the dimensions are not exact
    • Totally customizable and controllable for all output: HTML, JavaScript and CSS
    • Built in jQuery Nivo slide show: http://nivo.dev7studios.com/ but you can build you own

    Read the documentation for more information.

    Let me know if you have questions comments, thanks.

      If I want to use a different slider plugin, how would I do this? I did duplicate all the chunks but I'm not clear on how to point to them. Could you show sample code? Can I set two different albums on the same page to use different plug-ins?

      Thanks, and by the way, Great Job! This is very useful across all my sites.
