LateralPress Timeline Plugin

Posted on July 8, 2013

LateralPress is a plugin used to generate a timeline of events defined by the user. The dates in the timeline are based on the publish date of the post created for the timeline. For past events
be sure to set the post date to the specific date, since WordPress will default to today’s date.

Help

The plugin creates a custom post type called “lateralpress” and then a shortcode to display those posts in an on-screen scrolling timeline. The plugin is a conversion of the script Lateral On-SCroll Sliding with Jquery written by
Mary Lou – Manoela Ilic.

Usage

  • To add LateralPress to your posts, pages, or widgets use the following shortcode:
    [lateralpress]
  • To add LateralPress to your WordPress theme use the following shortcode inside your template:
    echo do_shortcode('[lateralpress]');

Creating a Post

LateralPress creates a custom post type for displaying on the timeline. The only requirements are that the post contains a title and a featured image. If no featured image is set, the
timeline will display only a blank image.
