<!-- Include Dependency Script -->
<script type="text/javascript" src="https://code.jquery.com/jquery-1.12.0.min.js"></script>
<script type="text/javascript" src="https://cdnjs.cloudflare.com/ajax/libs/flexslider/2.6.0/jquery.flexslider-min.js"></script>
<script type="text/javascript" src="http://shuvojitdas.com/script/jquery.bdslider.min.js"></script>

Note: If you had already added jQuery .js into your blogs template then don't add it again as sometimes multiple jQuery ruins everything. Here jQuery script tag is located at the very first of this code block above.




STEP - 5: So now the slider engine scripts are installed, you are ready to add slider(s) anywhere in your blog including gadget, post or page. Well, just copy the code below and paste in a HTML Gadget or Post or Page

<div id="slider1"></div>
<script type="text/javascript">
$(document).ready(function() {
    $("#slider1").BloggerDynamicSlider({
        imageWidth: 636, // Image width in px value
        imageHeight: 398, // Image height in px value
        maxItem: 6, // Max number of Slider Image to show
        animation: "slide", // Select your animation type, "fade" or "slide"
        showPostTitle: true, // Show post title as Caption ? (true/false)
        postTitleStyle: "overlayLight", // Caption style: "default, "overlayDark" or "overlayLight"
    });
});
</script>

STEP - 6: Save & Done! Pretty Simple & Dynamic.
