Image carousels

When articles have many images, this can disrupt the readability of an article. Therefore it would very useful to have some functionality that makes image viewing practical. One way to organize multiple images in a thread is a image carousel.

Please add image carousel functionality.

It could work like this:
add [carousel] bbcode
Allow images to be picked from an album, for example like this: [carousel]1969[/carousel] Possibly add an option for the number of images if people want that.
It would be nice to be able to define the gallery software in admincp, so that the admin can choose whether to use vb albums, photopost or IP.Gallery (if VW4 would integrate with IPB)

Completely forgot this request was here. We actually JUST implemented carousels for the existing GALLERY tag, which uses the wiki's attachment system. Marking this as a Duplicate, since it is already completed in that request: https://www.vaultwiki.org/issues/3835/

Does this allow us to select images from 3rd party galleries of our choice? Like in my suggestion? If not then this is not implemented.
I was suggestion a way to implement 3rd party gallery content into wiki articles or as a sidebar widget.

I dont know what the configuration options are with the VW carrousel. But in its current setup, I would not want it active on my sites, as it doesn't look good. There are some bugs with it as well.

If you notice bugs with it, please report them. And if there's a particular styling issue that you can see, please report that as well.

As always, VaultWiki is not scoped to provide built-in support for other 3rd party modifications, especially when those modifications duplicate existing VaultWiki functions.

The suggestion was for IP.Gallery as well which is not a 3rd party modification.

This issue can be revisited when IP.Gallery for IPS4 is available. At that point we can consider refactoring the GALLERY BB-Code with a "type" and "source" attribute if it's appropriate.

What do you think now that XenForo now has a media gallery?
