Right now, the XML file has to be manually maintained, but it’s pretty simple. You have a series of tags that looks similar to this:

Thanks Jake. So the XML is filled by User when he enters the data? or it has to be maintained manually by updating XML file?

Hey Roger – thanks for the feedback. This was not a WordPress project; the CMS in use here is CitySoft.

The slideshow is maintained using a dedicated folder where thumbnails and full size images are stored, accompanied by a simple XML file that takes a heading, subheading, and image file name for each “slide” tag.

Hi Jake,

very Cool update!

Did you make it in WP ?

Is the Header Image Rotator User controlled in terms of Image Uploading and Text Headings? Would you mind telling that which plugin did you use to control it?

It would be so cool, if I also know it :-$
