There are several ways in Tiki that can produce slideshows, depending of the type of content, if standalone or embeded, where the source content to be displayed is stored, and the features enabled in your site:
The "Slideshow feature" allows you to create simple presentations via Wiki Syntax. You can customize the appearance of the show via wiki syntax.
Some uses for slideshows:
classroom lectures
business presentations
Since Tiki7, a new slideshow system based on JQS5 has been added, and it can be used to convert any wiki page with headings into a slideshow.
You can fine tune the parameters for your slideshow in a wiki page, with PluginSlideshow
PluginColorbox displays all images from a file gallery, image gallery, or selected images from a file gallery, and presents them in its own new window, wrapped in a box with a dark background at the rest of the screen. The viewer has to manually click at the corresponding button to move forward to each new image.
PluginFiles is able to launch a slideshow presentation of images from a file gallery in its own new window, wrapped in a colorbox environment (a box with dark background at the rest of the screen). The slideshow autoplays and self-advances itself.
PluginList allows to present thre results in a slideshow format in Tiki14+. See "Carousel Formatting"
PluginSlider makes an embedded slideshow from whatever content you add there (images, text, video, etc, splitted between markers for new slide). (Will be removed before Tiki25 )
PluginCarousel displays the images of a filegallery in a self-advancing carousel, as an embedded slideshow.(Will be removed before Tiki25 )
PluginGalleriffic displays images from a file gallery using the Jquery Galleriffic module, which produces an embedded slideshow which can autoplay and self-advance itself.(Will be removed before Tiki25 )
From now onwards, the rest of this documentation page is devoted to the "Slideshow feature" itself.
Using the slideshow plugin
You can place the plugin anywhere on a page and this is where will be displayed the button to launch the presentation or slideshow. However any content placed after a heading will be display no matter if it placed before or after the plugin.
Important notice: CSS hidden content (display:none, d-none, etc) will be displayed on the slides of the slideshow.
The package offer several themes you can use right away but they are not dependant on the Tiki theme selected. To create or customise an existing theme you need developers skills or hire a consultant as they are part of the slideshow package integrated in Tiki.
Slideshows are easy to make and easy to view. Just split up your document by using Wiki syntax headers which are as follows (this would make a very simple and easy to view slideshow):
Titles break up your document so that slideshow knows what to do with it. TO view the plugin, ensure that feature_slideshow is enabled, and there will be a button at the bottom of your wiki page to switch to the slideshow view of that page.
With the slideshow feature on, pages are attempted to be converted into a slideshow automatically. To further configure slideshow, use the plugin - PluginSlideshow. This includes saving your current page's theme etc.
See more information on the slideshow feature at the documentation page PluginSlideshow
PDF Export
PDF export has been added to Tiki9. It is still marked experimental feature in Tiki 12.0. To turn on simple follow these steps:
Enable
Visit "tiki-admin.php?page=features" in your installation of tiki
Ensure that "Slideshow (jQuery.s5) PDF Export" is checked (if it doesn't appear under the Slideshow checkbox make sure the experimental checkbox on top of the page is checked on)
To export the page/presentation as a PDF
Click the "Slideshow" button on a wiki page
Click the "Export to PDF" button found in the bottom of the page in the slideshow menu
Font can be adjusted by adding the following css to the page (in admin look and feel will probably be easiest). Default is 1em, so 1.1 would be slightly larger, 0.9em would be slightly smaller.
