Tell us what you are trying to do? Make slider with thumbnails from custom type post image field. Discussed about this in other ticket and have nice working slider, but it is horizontal. My client's website has some basic design and shows photos like here hidden link that is one bigger photo and few aligned vertically on right side. I need to make something like this hidden link but looking like that furniture website layout. Can you help me with that?

Is there any documentation that you are following?

Hi there

I took a look at your sample slider. From their website it looks like you have to use their tools to add the images required.

What you need is a slider that, like Flex Slider (hidden link) simply requires you to generate HTML markup in a specific format using its classnames, and then to run a line or two of JavaScript to initialise the slider with the set options.

Flex Slider doesn't seem to have the layout you require, and I don't know one that does off the top of my head, it is simply a question of searching until you find one that does and where you construct it as described by building the required markup.

If you find a jQuery or JavaScript slider library that works that way and has the required layout, if you are struggling with generating the markup in the required format I should be able to help you with that.
