Block Module jQuery Slider for Homepage I have a simple jquery slider for the homepage of a website, which works in my static HTML/CSS layouts.

I want to incorporate this front-end mark-up into a block module that will allow an admin to add/edit/remove slides. Is there a good module that already does this that I could hack with to get this functionality. Or even better does anyone know a good tutorial (doesn't have to be for a slider), that shows developing a module where you can add/edit multiple items specific to that block module (separate to the main content); in my case it would be adding/editing slide items to the slider.
From reading your question, I take it you have zero integration with Drupal. You simply hardcode your entire slideshow in a block.

What I would suggest is that you start with creating a new content type, and then apply either Field slideshow or Views slideshow onto it.


  Provides a Slideshow formatter for Image fields, using JQuery Cycle plugin.
  
  Compared to Views slideshows, building the slideshow from multiple nodes, this module builds it from a single node, with a multi-valued Image/Media/Field Collection field.





  Views Slideshow can be used to create a slideshow of any content (not just images) that can appear in a View. Powered by jQuery, it is heavily customizable: you may choose slideshow settings for each View you create.
