A simple branding area (slideshow) plugin that is made to be used out of the box.
Download the plugin and replace any instances of /path/to/
in the snippet below with what is appropriate for your hosting environment.
<link rel="stylesheet" href="/path/to/jquery.matrix.branding.css">
<script src="//ajax.googleapis.com/ajax/libs/jquery/1.8.2/jquery.min.js"></script>
<script src="/path/to/jquery.matrix.branding.js"></script>
You must have one container element. Within that element, there should be a DIV for every slide. The slide should contain an image for the background (assigned via the slide-background class) and a DIV for the optional slide content (assigned via the slide-content class).
<div id="branding">
<div>
<img src="image1.jpg" alt="" class="slide-background">
<div class="slide-content">first slide</div>
</div>
<div>
<img src="image2.jpg" alt="" class="slide-background">
<div class="slide-content">second slide</div>
</div>
<div>
<img src="image3.jpg" alt="" class="slide-background">
<div class="slide-content">third slide</div>
</div>
</div>
This snippet should go right before your closing </body>
tag.
<script>
$(function(){
$("#branding").matrixBranding();
});
</script>
