Get started with FlexSlider in 3 easy steps!

Step 1 – Link files

Add these items to the <head> of your document. This will link jQuery and the FlexSlider core CSS/JS files into your webpage. You can also choose to host jQuery on your own server, but Google is nice enough to take care of that for us!

<!-- Place somewhere in the <head> of your document -->
<link rel="stylesheet" href="flexslider.css" type="text/css">
<script src="https://ajax.googleapis.com/ajax/libs/jquery/1.6.2/jquery.min.js"></script>
<script src="jquery.flexslider.js"></script>

Step 2 – Add markup

The FlexSlider markup is simple and straightforward. First, start with a single containing element, <div class=”flexslider”> in this example. Then, create a <ul class=”slides”>. It is important to use this class because the slider targets that class specifically. Put your images and anything else you desire into each <li> and you are ready to rock.

<!-- Place somewhere in the <body> of your page -->
<div class="flexslider">
<ul class="slides">
<li>
<img src="slide1.jpg" />
</li>
<li>
<img src="slide2.jpg" />
</li>
<li>
<img src="slide3.jpg" />
</li>
</ul>
</div>

Step 3 – Hook up the slider

Lastly, add the following lines of Javascript into the <head> of your document, below the links from Step 1. The $(window).load() is required to ensure the content of the page is loaded before the plugin initializes.

<!-- Place in the <head>, after the three links -->
<script type="text/javascript" charset="utf-8">
$(window).load(function() {
$('.flexslider').flexslider();
});
</script>

…and voila! That wraps up the most basic installation of FlexSlider into your webpage.

It's easy to build a slider with this plugin step by step.But I met some problem when I use it.
First, the images is so large that the height overflow my screen(my screen 1920*1080). I tried to add css style into img to resize the pictures which doesn't work. Suddenly,I realize the flexslider.js is responsive for all screen,of course not working. So I check the flexslider.css to figure out problem. At line 96,it shows .flex-viewport { max-height: 2000px;}. The height is so over above my goal,so I change to max-height: 900px; .In conclusion, change the max-height size to whatever you want.

Second, my nav arrow didn't show up instead of text fi and fl . The solution is put the font file into your project. It's my fault that I didn't contain all the necessary files.

At last, it's show time of my simple flexslider.js demo.

Next section,I'll try to use more properties.

Then, I should add some text description below each picture. All you have to change is adding text in html and styling the text part.
Slider with caption.

html

css

Slider with thumbnails.

html

slider called Carousel.

html

Slider with youtube video

html

insert js file

Most important part is js file pasting API for youtube.

// Youtube and Vimeo Flexslider Control
// Partly from Duppi on GitHub, partly from digging into the YouTube API
// Need to set this up to use classes instead of IDs

tag.src = "http://www.youtube.com/player_api";
