Usage

1. Copy this repo into your plugins directory, naming it zSlider.
2. Install the required ACF plugin.
3. Import the json file acf-zSlider.json using the ACF.
4. Add the ACF Options WP admin menu item by adding the below code to your themes functions.php file:

if( function_exists('acf_add_options_page') ) {
	acf_add_options_page(array(
		'page_title' 	=> 'zSlider Settings',
		'menu_title'	=> 'zSlider',
		'menu_slug' 	=> 'zslider-slider',
		'capability'	=> 'edit_posts',
		'redirect'	=> false,
		'icon_url' 	=> 'dashicons-slides'
	));
}

5. Goto the new WP adminzSlider tab, edit the slider to your liking, and set the ID of the tag you wish to render it to, in this case slider.
6. Edit your custom WP page template as such:

<div id="slider" class="z-slider"></div>

<?php include_once(dirname(dirname(dirname(__FILE__))).'/plugins/zSlider/main.php'); ?>

7. If you're using the slider within content, remember to set a height, such as:

<style type="text/css">
	.z-slider {
		height: 500px;
	}
</style>

Otherwise the slider will automatically adjust to fit the height and width of any container you place it into.

If you have a second WP installation, or other WP installations on the same server, there's no need to copy the zSlider folder again. Simply include the slider main.php file in the same way from the other WP installation, such as:

<?php include(dirname(dirname(dirname(dirname(dirname(__FILE__))))).'/mySite.com/wp-content/plugins/zSlider/main.php'); ?>
