Display slide show in a page article

[einstein]

Hi, I need to display an image slideshow in a post. Does anyone have any idea how can I do this please? Thank You!

einstein,

Are you wanting an image slider like what is on many home pages these days? Or a way to present a gallery of images as a slideshow? Maybe if you posted a link to an example of what you're looking to do...

Hi John, I am trying to re-create this website: http://www.margaretrivertours.com in wordpress, as you can see, there is an image gallery thee but my template which I am using does not have a wodget space in this position, so I need to insert a gallery in there some other way. Thank You!

Thanks for the example. If it were me doing this, I'd probably use WooSlider from WooThemes, and insert the slider/slideshow with a shortcode in the content area of that page.

Another option would be a plugin like Widgets on Pages that lets you insert widgets on posts or pages, and then you can use a slideshow plugin that you already have available. I haven't tried Widgets on Pages myself, but it seems to have an active community right now, and the plugin author is still actively supporting it, both of which are good signs.
