Adding Slideshow to font page

    Hi,

    I would like to able to add a slideshow to the front page of a site I am developing. The font page is set as static and it templated by a file called front-page.php, which makes a plugin hard. I have found various javascript examples but have failed to get them to work as they require script in the <head> and <body> sections, which the front-page.php does not have. How can I add a slide show, either through a plugin (though not sure how with no physical page the wordpress dashboard) or code. I am sort of experienced with wordpress and html but am only starting out with php.

    Thanks

    What theme are you using? Where did you download it from?

    First, create a child theme and then have a look at http://ww.wp.xz.cn/extend/plugins/cimy-header-image-rotator/

    Hi again,

    I’ve got this code in my front-page.php file:

    <div id="cimy_div_id_0">Loading images...</div>
<div class="cimy_div_id_0_caption"></div>
<style type="text/css">
	#cimy_div_id_0 {
		float: left;
		margin: 1em auto;
		border: 1px solid #000000;
		width: 950px;
		height: 370px;
		overflow: hidden;
		visibility: visible;
	}
	div.cimy_div_id_0_caption {
		position: absolute;
		margin-top: 175px;
		margin-left: -75px;
		width: 150px;
		text-align: center;
		left: 50%;
		padding: 5px 10px;
		background: black;
		color: white;
		font-family: sans-serif;
		border-radius: 10px;
		display: none;
		z-index: 2;
	}
</style>
<noscript>
	<div id="cimy_div_id_0_nojs">
		<img id="cimy_img_id" src="http://localdigitalnews.webserver/wordpress/wp-content/Cimy_Header_Images/0/studio.png" alt="" />
	</div>
</noscript>

    Except all I see is a blank box with no image. Any ideas?
