[SOLVED] Featured Gallery Plugin
 
Please can someone recommend a Featured Gallery Plugin to provide a featured style gallery on the frontpage of the Atahualpa theme. I have looked at various options but would prefer to keep it as simple as possible and to go with one that others using Atahualpa have successfully used.

I am using Wordpress 3+ and Atahualpa 3.5.3.

Do you mean featured posts?

I'm successfully using Featured Content Gallery on one site and Smooth Slider on another, both with WP 3.0 and Atahualpa 3.5.3.

If you just want images, WP-Cycle is very easy to set up.

Where do you put the code for the Featured Content Gallery for your http://larchmontgazette.com site. When I insert it in the loop using the Atahualpa theme settings it appears in every page and not just the front page?

You have to restrict where it appears. I put this code in the Above the Loop section of the center column style area:

Code:

<div align="center">
<?php if (is_front_page() && !is_paged() ) include (ABSPATH . '/wp-content/plugins/featured-content-gallery/gallery.php'); ?>
</div>
<br />

The exclamation mark keeps it from showing up other than on the front page. I'm sure there are other PHP statements that would accomplish this as well.
