Attention: version 1.1 of the widget has been released. The download link in this post has been disactivated.
And here it is: the widget that lets you use multiple instances of the Creative Clans slide show 1.2 in your WordPress 2.7 website!
The following information can also be found in the ‘readme.txt’ file that is included in the zip-file.
Installation
Installation is easy. Just download the zip file, and install and activate it using the ‘Plugins/Add New’ menu in your WordPress admin panel.
Once installed, you can add instances of the widget to your website through the ‘Appearance/Widgets’ menu, and change the settings by editing the added widget. Take a look at the CCSlideShow user guide for a complete list of all parameters.
You can add as many slide shows as you want. Each slide show has it’s own set of settings.
To make the images appear in the slide show, you need to set the first two parameters:
path
Has to contain the absolute path to the slides folder, WITH the final slash.
Use this setting when you have disabled ‘Organize my uploads into month- and year-based folders’ in the WordPress miscellanious settings, or are using a plugin that allows you to upload the images to a single folder.
Images
Has to contain a list of the image names, one image per line.
If you didn’t use the ‘path’ setting, or only put a part of the path there (because you’ve enabled ‘Organize my uploads into month- and year-based folders’ in the WordPress miscellanious settings, or anyway the images are stored in different folders), then you’ll have to add the (missing part of) the path to the image names.
License
The WordPress widget is released under the GNU/GPL license.
The CCSlideShow.swf flash file included in the widget is released under this license. As long as the flash file is a part of the CCSlideShow WordPress widget, you are free to use it as if it was released under GNU/GPL as well. If you want to use it outside of the CCSlideShow WordPress widget, then you’ll have to abide the rules of this this license.

I would love to use this – but it causes an error on my Dashboard: WordPress database error: [MySQL client ran out of memory].
Hi Mike, this is a strange error, because the widget doesn’t make any direct contact with the database, it only uses standard WP functions to get and write it’s data in the database. Is it only the slide show that is giving you this problem? And when exactly do you get it?

Hi Sanjeev. The link in this post pointed to an old version of the widget. The download of the latest version can always be found on the home page (www.creativeclans.nl).
To avoid this problem in the future, I’ve disactived the download link in this post, and added a notice at the top.
Please provide with the registration link to be able to download..
Thanks
There is no need to registrate. Just go the the download page and download whatever version of the slideshow you want.
