## Description

The ‘JJ NextGen JQuery Cycle’ allows you to create a ‘Cycle Lite’ (http://jquery.
malsup.com/cycle/lite/) as a widget or as a shortcode.
 This plugin uses the ‘NextGen
Gallery’ plugin for its images.

Requirements:

 * NextGen Gallery Plugin (https://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/nextgen-gallery/)

NextGen Gallery Integration:

 * This plugin uses the original width and height of the image uploaded so make 
   sure the images are the correct dimensions when uploaded.
 * If a width and height are defined under the configuration all images will be 
   resized to those dimensions (Highly recommended).
 * Alt & Title Text Field: Provide a full url here and the image will link to this.
   Only works if alt field starts with either of these; /, http, or ftp.
 * Description Field: Will be used as image alt text. If alt text is present but
   not a valid url alt text will be used instead for image alt text.

You can specify the following parameters:

NOTE: sc means shortcode:

 * Title: Title. Leave blank for no title. (sc: title=”My Cycle Lite”)
 * Gallery: Leave blank to use all galleries or choose a gallery to use. (sc: gallery
   =”galleryid”)
 * Order: Order to display results in. You can choose; Random, Latest First, Oldest
   First, or NextGen Sortorder. Random will still work when a page is cached. (sc:
   order=”random”|”asc”|”desc”|”sortorder”)
 * Shuffle: If order is random and this is true will shuffle images with javascript.
   Useful if your are caching your pages. (sc: shuffle=”true”|”false”)
 * Max pictures: The maximum amount of pictures to use. (sc: max_pictures=”6″)
 * HTML id: HTML id to use. Defaults to ‘cycle_lite’. Needs to be different for 
   multiple instances on same page. (sc: html_id=”cycle_lite”)
 * Image width: Width of image. Defaults to 200. Recommended to set this. (sc: width
   =”200″)
 * Image height: Height of image. Defaults to 200. Recommended to set this. Will
   prevent a floating problem if set. (sc: height=”150″)
 * Center: Centers content in container. Requires width to be set. (sc: center=”
   1″)

Cycle Lite settings:

Please check the cycle lite home page form more information (http://jquery.malsup.
com/cycle/lite/).

 * timeout: Milliseconds between slide transitions (0 to disable auto advance)..(
   sc: timeout=”4000″)
 * speed: Speed of the transition (any valid fx speed value). (sc: speed=”1000″)
 * sync: True if in/out transitions should occur simultaneously. (sc: sync=”1″)
 * fit: Force slides to fit container. (sc: fit=”0″)
 * pause: True to enable “pause on hover”. (sc: pause=”1″)
 * delay: Additional delay (in ms) for first transition (hint: can be negative).(
   sc: delay=”2)

Shortcode Examples:

 * [jj-ngg-jquery-cycle html_id=”about-cycle-lite” gallery=”1″ width=”200″ height
   =”150″]
 * [jj-ngg-jquery-cycle title=”Hello” html_id=”about-cycle-lite” gallery=”1″ timeout
   =”3000″ speed=”1000″]
 * [jj-ngg-jquery-cycle html_id=”about-cycle” gallery=”2″ width=”150″ height=”100″
   timeout=”3000″ speed=”1000″ fit=”1″]

Question:

 * Doesn’t work after upgrade? or Doesn’t work with this theme?
