What is the simplest syntax for the [nivo] shortcode?

If you simply want to show all the attached images to a page, post or custom post type then use
[nivo]

I typed [nivo] and got [nivo] back

You need to activate both the oik-nivo-slider plugin and the oik base plugin. The [nivo] shortcode only becomes functional when [oik] is loaded.

My images do not appear in the slider

The most common fixes to this problem are:

  • Don’t insert the images that you want in the slideshow into the page; just upload media and save changes.
  • The slider requires jQuery. Check that your theme files contain calls to wp_head() and wp_footer().

What are the parameters to the [nivo] shortcode?

The basic parameters that control the display of the Nivo slider are:

[nivo
  theme="default|bar|dark|light|oik|orman|pascal|default271|oik271 - Theme for the slideshow"
  link="y|n|file|full - Link the images to the target post/page or media file"
  caption="y|n - Display the image title as the caption"
  ribbon="y|n - Display the ribbon, if the theme supports it (version 271 only)"
  thumbnail="full|thumbnail|medium|large|nnn|wxh - image size"
  class="|classes - CSS classes"
  thumbs="|n|y - thumbnail navigation"
  effect="random|sliceDownRight|sliceDownLeft|sliceUpRight|sliceUpLeft|sliceUpDown|sliceUpDownLeft|fold|fade|boxRandom|boxRain|boxRainReverse|boxRainGrow|boxRainGrowReverse|slideInLeft|slideInRight
]

How do I make the images link to my content?

There are three methods.

  1. Use the oik custom link URL field
  2. Build the slideshow from images attached to related content
  3. Use the format= parameter

Use the oik custom link URL field

If your slide show is created from attached images then use the oik custom image link URL field in the Add Media dialog to set the target for the link.

Images attached to related content

Alternatively build the slideshow dynamically from images attached to related content.

Use the post_type parameter to specify the content type and

  • either the post_parent parameter for hierarchical content types
  • or category for posts
  • or other selection criteria for other content types

    [nivo
    post_type=”post_type – Post type to display”
    post_parent=”|ID – Parent ID to use if not current post”
    ]

Use the format= parameter

[nivo format=”L”
]

[nivo format="T/C"
]

What is the FULL syntax for the [nivo] shortcode

[nivo
post_type=”attachment|post_type|special:value – Post type to display”
theme=”default|custom|bar|dark|light|oik|orman|pascal|default271|oik271 – Theme for the slideshow”
class=”|classes – CSS classes”
link=”y|n|file|full – Link the images to the target post/page or media file”
caption=”y|n – Display the image title as the caption”
ribbon=”y|n – Display the ribbon, if the theme supports it”
thumbnail=”full|thumbnail|medium|large|nnn|wxh – image size”
thumbs=”|n| y – Thumbnail navigation”
nav=”|n| y – Control navigation”
pause=”|pause – Pause time in milli seconds”
manual=”|n| y – Manual advance”
effect=”random|sliceDownRight|sliceDownLeft|sliceUpRight|sliceUpLeft|sliceUpDown|sliceUpDownLeft|fold|fade|boxRandom|boxRain|boxRainReverse|boxRainGrow|boxRainGrowReverse|slideInLeft|slideInRight – transition effect”
numberposts=”5|numeric – number to return”
offset=”0|numeric – offset from which to start”
category=”|category-id – category IDs (comma separated)”
category_name=”|category-slug – category slugs (comma separated)”
customcategoryname=”|category-slug – custom category slug”
orderby=”date|ID|title|parent|rand|menu_order – Sort sequence”
order=”DESC|ASC – Sort order.”
include=”|id1,id2 – IDs to include”
exclude=”|id1,id2 – IDs to exclude”
meta_key=”|meta key – post metadata key”
meta_value=”|meta value – post metadata value”
post_mime_type=”|image|application|text|video|mime type – Attached media MIME type”
post_parent=”|ID – Parent ID to use if not current post”
post_status=”publish|pending|draft|auto-draft|future|private|trash|any – Post status”
id=”|IDs – IDs of posts to display”
]

Do I have to remember all those parameters?

NO. You can enable the oik TinyMCE shortcode or quicktag buttons. See oik options > Buttons.
When editing a post/page with TinyMCE or the HTML editor click on the shortcode button to see a list of ALL enabled shortcodes and get syntax help, where available.

What’s OIK and why do I need it?

The oik Nivo slider is developed using the OIK (Often Included Key Information) API (Application Programming Interface).
If you don’t have the OIK plugin installed and activated then the Nivo slider shortcode won’t work.

Specifically, the code is dependent upon bw_get_posts() to obtain the list of attachments, posts, pages or custom post types
which populate the slider and bw_thumbnail() to select the image to display when it’s not an attached image.

I can’t see some of the images in my slideshow

The default image size is thumbnail=full.
At present the bw_thumbnail() function will only return an image for a particular post id
when there is an attached image; it won’t find the featured image. As a workaround either specify the thumbnail parameter as small,medium,large or your preferred size (e.g. 150×100)
OR ensure that the image you want to display is attached to the post
OR exclude the post from the list ( exclude=id1,id2 )

Do I need to make my images the same size?

NO, not any more.
If you use any one of the five themes associated with jQuery Nivo version 3.1 then the images can be different sizes.
Warning: you might not like the results though.

Can I control the slideshow transitions?

YES. Use the Nivo slider settings page.

Can I provide my own themeing?

This is planned for a future version.

Can I put the [nivo] shortcode in my sidebar?

YES. You can use the [nivo] shortcode in sidebars, headers and footers by using a text widget.
It’s just like entering the shortcode into a post, page or custom post type.
Remember you may need to set the post_parent parameter to control which posts are loaded.

Can I code the shortcode into header.php?

Not directly. In order to get the shortcode to expand you need to wrap it in some php.
One way of achieving this is to code

Which version of the jQuery Nivo slider code is needed?

The plugin includes multiple versions of the FREE jQuery Nivo slider from Dev7 Studios
* Version 3.2 is the latest version producing responsive slideshows.
* oik-nivo-slider continues to support the themes for version 2.7.1: default271, orman, pascal and oik271

Does it support version 3.2 of the jQuery Nivo slider?

YES… from oik-nivo-slider version 1.9

Does it support thumbnail navigation?

YES… from oik-nivo-slider version 1.7 with oik 1.17 or higher
Thumbnail navigation is supported from version 3.1 of the nivo jQuery code.

Can I choose the effect per slider?

YES… Use the effect= parameter e.g. [nivo effect=boxRain]

What’s the difference between this plugin and Nivo’s WordPress plugin

I have not tried Nivo’s plugin.

Does it support NextGEN galleries?

YES. Basic support for images in NextGEN galleries has been added in version 1.18
You need to use a special post_type parameter
e.g.
[nivo post_type=nggallery:1]

  • The special post_type is nggallery
  • Then you need a colon (:)
  • Then the ID of the gallery

What other special post types are there?

oik-nivo-slider has built in support for:

  • nggallery:id – display the images from a NextGEN gallery
  • screenshot:plugin_name – display the screenshots for an installed plugin

Can you tell me more?

YES. See oik-nivo-slider

समीक्षाएं

सितम्बर 3, 2016
The oik-nivo-slider plugin provides an advanced [nivo] shortcode. In its simplest form it will display the images attached to a post or page. But there are many advanced scenarios which allow you to make a slideshow out of just about any content, so long as there are attached images. Much of the advanced capability is provided by the oik base plugin. The previous low ratings were applicable when the oik base plugin consisted of many plugins. This is no longer the case. Those plugins were extracted and made into standalone plugins a long time ago. I’ve only rated the slider as a 4 since it’s not the best on small screen smart phones and tablets and some of the transitions don’t appear to work. That’s a limitation of the jQuery.
