## Description

Swipe.js is a mobile, touch-capable slider framework built by [Brad Birdsall](http://www.twitter.com/BradBirdsall).
The home page for the swipe project is [swipejs.com](http://swipejs.com/). This 
plugin adapts swipe.js for easier use in WordPress. Before, the slider would have
to be built into a theme. Now it can be used on any page just by using the shortcode.

This plugin requires [css3 3d transform support](http://caniuse.com/#feat=transforms3d).
If you browser version is in the red then this slider will not work. You will have
to update to a more modern browser or switch browsers all together.

This project is also [hosted on Github](https://github.com/james2doyle/Swipe.js-WordPress-Plugin).

## Installation

 1. Install the plugin, either through the WordPress plugin repository or install via
    zip file.
 2. Create a new post under the SwipeJS post menu.
 3. Give the post a title and a featured image.
 4. Under the settings menu go to SwipeJS
 5. Modify the settings to what you need.
 6. Create a new page or add the shortcode `[sjs-slideshow]` to an existing page

## FAQ

  How can I edit the styling?

There is a style.css file included in the plugin. There is a default style that 
can be overwritten. All of the CSS classes and IDs are in that stylesheet.

  My images are different heights

Please format/crop your images to all be the same size. SwipeJS has no cropping 
or sizing.

  My newest slide is last

That is proper. Add slide one first. All the posts are in ascending order. This 
means that the newest post will appear as the last image.

  The slider is broken or not working

The slider uses CSS3 transitions and transforms to move the images. This means you
will need a relatively new version of your browser. You can see a list of compatible
browsers on [this chart](http://caniuse.com/#feat=transforms3d). Red means there
is no support and green means full support. If your browser falls in the red zone,
either update your browser or you may have to use a different slider.
