Stop Nivo Slider Autoplay and start slide on specifc action?

Question

How can I make Nivo slider start only when I click on a specific link or go to the specific dot slide and stop there. (by dot I meant number of slide (nivo-controlNav))

Thank you!

Solution

If I'm reading you correctly, here's how I figure it.

When you set up Nivo set the manualAdvance property to true. That will set Nivo to only transition when the nav is clicked.

See the documentation here

So it would be something like:

$('#slider').nivoSlider({
    // Your settings here
    manualAdvance:true
});
