Can a video be inserted into the DCG? If so, how?

I’m testing out the new 4.0 beta. One thing I don’t see is the ability to use the category description in the slide. Did this go by the wayside?

Hi,

The tags didn’t come out correct

However, is it possible to allow a../a tags in the p…/p sub-titles as currently it won’t let you, i.e. p a…/a /p.

Hi,

I am not a user of WordPress and I am using your DCG in standalone mode as a replacement for JD Gallery as that only uses Mootools and I want trouble free operation using jQuery, JD Gallery isn’t very good at mixing Mootools and jQuery. There is a real need for a jQuery replacement for JD Gallery and DCG does the job!!! A lot of people are shouting for such a replacement.

However, is it possible to allow … tags in the … sub-titles as currently it won’t let you, i.e. ….

Brilliant job!!

Hi,

No offence taken!

Actually, given the work involved in developing, maintaining and supporting it, I often ask myself the same question.

You’re right, principally the DCG is something I developed for myself and then released, and was never intended to be a premium plugin.

Premium plugins bring their own headaches, not least being setting up a suitable payment/download portal and then dealing with much higher user expectations regarding support and updates. At the moment, that’s just not something I want to commit to.

Donations are always very welcome, of course.

Cheers.

Ade –
Thanks for the thorough update. I am curious as to why you do not charge for the plugin. Over 100,000 downloads – wow… very popular….

I am seeing more plugins where people charge for them.

I know that you are not in it for the money, but at least if you charged a minimal fee this would enable you to get some sort of remuneration for your work.

I hope that this comment is not offensive. I was just curious as to your reason for not charging.

Hey,

thanks so far for this great plugin!

The only thing I’m missing would be a option to randomize the order of the featured articles. I would like to show my visitiors a large variety of featured articles to explore, not always the same ones until I change them.
I would love to see this feature in the future.

Thanks!

Hi, Version 4.0 beta does. The existing stable version, version 3.3.5, works with custom post types, but only their first image attachment, not the featured image. If you would like to test it out, you can find details of version 4.0 beta here: Dynamic Content Gallery version 4.0 beta ready for testing

Hi there,
does the DCG work with custom post types and their featured images?
And +1 on multiple instances of the slideshow!
