The Simple Slide Show Manager is a quick way to manage you presentations. Simply upload your presentation into a folder and it will automatically be included in the Simple Slide Show Manager.
You'll need a server that can run PHP for the manager to work. It probably works with everything above version 4.1.2, but I have only tested with version 4.3 and above.
To configure the manager you need to unzip the downloaded file and open the operashow.php in a text editor. After the additional installation/configuration notes in the php-file you will see a section called Settings.
Here you will be able to set your username/password and the folder you wish to keep your presentations in. Set these values to what you want and upload the file to your server (if you wish the change any of the other configuration options do this before uploading). You need to create a subdirectory in the folder where you upload the php-file. This subdirectory should have the same name as the one you provided in the settings-section. CHMOD this subdirectory to 777 and you're good to go.
If you want to have a public list of presentations (for your students for example), but at the same time don't want to allow the public to upload presentations you need two copies of the php-file. Make a copy of the file and rename them so that you have a public.php file and an admin.php file. In the public file set:
$disableUpload = TRUE;$disableLogin = TRUE;In the admin.php set:
$disableUpload = FALSE;$disableLogin = FALSE;Point the public to public.php where they will be able to see a list of presentations, but won't be able to add their own presentations. When you want to add a presentation go to admin.php to login and add presentations.
