    Hi there,
    is it somehow possible to use the AVIA Slider with external images?
    For example, I have a WordPress plugin which generates content.
    It can output images but I want to display them in a slideshow box.

    Is there a way to use the avia_slider shortcodes and add pictures from external URLs?

    Thanks and BR, Niemitz

    Hey Niemitz,

    Did you try to enable debug mode: http://kriesi.at/documentation/enfold/enable-advanced-layout-builder-debug/, and then manually pasting the image URL’s into it?

    Hi Rikard,

    wow. I am amazed :) I’ve been looking for an option to see all the used shortcodes. THANKS!

    I added a simple layer slider and get the following code:

    [av_slideshow size='featured' animation='slide' autoplay='false' interval='5' control_layout='av-control-default']
[av_slide slide_type='image' id='' video='' mobile_image='' video_ratio='' title='' link_apply='' link='lightbox' link_target='' av-medium-font-size-title='' av-small-font-size-title='' av-mini-font-size-title='' av-medium-font-size='' av-small-font-size='' av-mini-font-size=''][/av_slide]

    The point is that here I can only add slides for in WP uploaded pictures. I have to work the image ID.
    But I would like to show pictures that not have been uploaded to WP. Is that possible?

    BR, Niemitz

    Hi,

    Just upload it to the media gallery and take the ID from there, which would help you finish it.

    Hi Basilis,

    I could do that. But the third-party plugin does not upload the pictures to media gallery.
    It generates HTML code und hyperlinks. What I want to do is tell the plugin to use the avia slide show gallery shortcodes together with the hyperlinks
    it is generating. So is that possible or not – that’s all I need to know.

    BR, John

    Hi Niemitz,

    I think it’s not an easy thing to do. The shortcode takes images and generates the html it needs and knows how to control, in this case the gallery will have some foreign html that might break its functionality. You could try to implement it, but it does not seem very feasible. But you might look at the shortcodes generated by some slider with video embeds to have an idea.

    Best regards,
    Victoria
