I have tried many fancy extensions for a simple problem, and none of them worked as simply and perfectly like this. I can only recommend it.
One small upgrade suggestion for the developers: at the moment, you can't put more than one instance of your module into an article. I have modified two lines in the code which makes possible to do this.
In mod_jb_selectedcontentslider.php line 69-70, where you create the id-s of the elements, I have replaced the counter to the id of the article which is unique (unless you want to use the same article more than once)
So instead of
$toggle = $backgroundclass.trim(strval($count));
$togglewords = "$togglewords".trim(strval($count));
you can use
$toggle = $backgroundclass.$article->id;
$togglewords = "togglewords".$article->id;
And then you can have more than one instance within the same "parent" article.
Warm regards,
FM
