GA Image Carousel

Installation

Upload the plugin files to the /wp-content/plugins/ga-image-carousel directory, or install the plugin through the WordPress plugins screen directly.

Activate the plugin through the ‘Plugins’ screen in WordPress.

After install, you are ready to use carousel in your post, page, widget or anywhere you like. How to create carousel? lets see.

Now we are going to add a carousel in a regular page. Go to Page > Add New. Click on “Add Media”(1 on screenshots), then you can see media uploader. Now click on “Create gallery(2 on screenshots), then upload some photos here.”

After adding all necessary information, Click the blue button saying “Create a new gallery”(3 on screenshots). You can re-organize carousel items here. “Link to” select “Media file” (4 on screenshots), now click on the blue button saying “Create Gallery”(5 on screenshots).

Then you will get WordPress default gallery shortcode in your editor, you can’t see gallery shortcode, just click on text editor form right(6 on screenshots). Just gallery shortcode(7 on screenshots) need change to “ga-carousel”(8 on screenshots). If your gallery shortcode is [gallery ids=”305,306,307,310,311″], just gallery text change to ga-carousel text. So your shortcode will look like [ga-carousel ids=”305,306,307,310,311”]. Now save your page.
