Meteor Slides

Meteor Slides makes it simple to manage a slideshow with WordPress by adding a custom post type for slides. You can see this plugin in action on my homepage.

New Slide Page

The slideshow is powered by jQuery Cycle and has over twenty transition styles to choose from.

The slides are managed as featured images through the media library; they will automatically be cropped to the dimensions specified on the settings page. Optionally, each slide can link to any Post, Page, or external URL of your choice.

Meteor Slides is easy to use, but the options should offer enough flexibility to use the slideshow in many different ways.
