The options that control the jQuery Cycle plugin which powers the slideshows are set in the slideshow.js file. You can copy this file into your theme to override the default script and customize the options of jQuery Cycle without hacking the plugin.

Adding a custom slideshow script

Copy slideshow.js from /meteor-slides/js/ to your theme’s directory to replace the plugin’s default slideshow script.

Using the slideshow script

Adding a custom slideshow script should only be a last resort for advanced customizations. Most of the options should be changed on the settings page or using metadata when possible.

For ideas on how you could use this script, check out jQuery Cycle’s list of demos.
