[edit] Status Unclear
The status of this extension is unclear. As of July 2008 all external links to the ffproject.net are dead (download, example, detailed instructions, ...).
[edit] What can this extension do?
It will create XML for as many pages as there are images on the list submitted. Each page will function as a "slide", i.e. it will be a wiki page on namespace 4, composed of an image and links to previous and next "slide". No pages are actually created until the XML file is imported via the standard Special:Import at your wiki. This can be done at your discretion.
- Version 2 - Lets you specify image size and an mp3 file to be embedded on the page for each slide.
[edit] Usage
Paste or type a list of images to the form field. Select a common base name for the "slides". Submit form will generate XML code ready to be imported, creating the slides. You can also use the image list between <gallery> tags on any page of your wiki - even if you added descriptions to the images (descriptions will be ignored). (Detailed instructions)
[edit] Installation
Two alternatives:
[edit] No install Necessary
Use my site to generate the XML file with the slide markup, then use your standard Special:Import to make the slides from the XML file.
-
- Note: If you use my wiki all the slide pages on the XML file will have the prefix FFProject: . You MUST edit the xml file with a text editor: do a search for FFProject: and replace it with yournamespace:.
[edit] Installing it on your wiki
Download my source code and install, generate XML for slides, then use your standard Special:Import to make the slides from the XML file.
