To get attached (i.e. child) images of a post, try using get_children()
. e.g.:
<?php
$child_image_args = array(
'post_mime_type' => 'image',
'post_parent' => $postID,
'post_type' => 'attachment'
);
$child_images = get_children( $child_image_args );
?>
Which returns an associative array of child images. Then, just loop through them, e.g. using wp_get_attachment_image()
, to output. e.g.:
<div id="nivoslider">
<?php
foreach ( $child_images as $child_image ) {
wp_get_attachment_image( $child_image->ID );
}
?>
</div>
Nivo Slider integration is mostly out of scope for WPSE, but if you want to advance manually, change the manualAdvance
setting to manual
in your #nivoslider
jQuery instantiation.
