How to show the next slide when you click on the image in flexslider

Question

I'm using the flexslider plugin and i wanted to know if there is an easy way (apart from changing the core of the plugin which is what i am going to do if i don't find an easy answer) to show the next slide when you click on the current slide. I set up the flexslider like this

$('.flexslider').flexslider({
    directionNav : false,
    slideshow: false,
        animation: "slide",
        controlsContainer: ".flex-container"
    });

I disabled the Prev/Next command because i didn't like them. What should i do?

Answer 1

Maybe a little bit too late, but here's the solution for Flexslider 2:

$('.flexslider').flexslider({
    directionNav : false,
    slideshow: false,
    animation: "slide",
    controlsContainer: ".flex-container",
    start: function(slider) {
    $('.slides li img').click(function(event){
        event.preventDefault();
        slider.flexAnimate(slider.getTarget("next"));
    });
}
});
