    Is it possible to put some kind of variable in as the post_id so that it refers to whatever post the shortcode is in? I need to be able to drop a single code across many posts and have it always refer to the post where it is. Perhaps change the behavior of the default tribulant_slideshow shortcode to show attached images if there is no gallery associated with the post? Right now it just says “No slides are available” unless I hardcode the post_id

    Hi there, thanks for this great plugin… a very brillant idea for making things usefull

    it would be great if I could add the PHP code into single.php in order to show slideshow of current post -if it has images-

    <?php // if (function_exists('slideshow')) { slideshow($output = true, $gallery_id = false, $post_id = false, $params = array()); } ?>

    is it there a doc page for PHP ?

    thanks in advance!

    Hi Pulpcovers,
    To authomatically get the slideshow of current page, if page is single page or post, just go to single.php (it depends of your theme) and ad the slideshow hardcode

    <?php
    $pid = get_the_ID();
    if (function_exists(‘slideshow’)) { slideshow(true, false, $pid, array()); } ?>

    tell me if you got it working 🙂
