Swift Slides is a simple Joomla content plugin to render an accordion of slides like seen on this page.
You can set the parameters of the slides in the plugin parameters. Then you only need to enter this simple code in an article to render the slides.
{swift}images/bands/big{/swift}
You can also enter extended syntax like seen below to override the plugins default parameters and allow you to style Swift Slide sets differently. The below syntax is shown with all available parameters used.

| Parameter | Description | Options |
| max | The width or height (in pixels) of a fully expanded slide. If isVertical is true, then max refers to the height - otherwise it is the width. | numerical |
| item_width | Width for each slide when closed. This number times the total slides will dictate the area the slides cover. IE. 5 slides at 100 will make the total width of the slide show 500 pixels. | numerical |
| item_height | Height for each slide. | numerical |

| isVertical | Slides will align vertically if true. | 1 = yes | 0 = no |
| sticky | One slide will always be expanded if true. | 1 = yes | 0 = no |
| spacing | The width (in pixels) separating each slide. | numerical |
| event | The event that triggers the expand effect. | mouseover | click | dblclick |
| duration | The number of milliseconds required for each animation to complete. | numerical |
| orderby | How the slides are ordered. | 1 = Date Modified | 0 = Name |
| sort | How to sort the slides. | 1 = Ascending | 2 = Decending | 0 = Random |
