Slider Plugin

The Slider plugin adds a dynamic, interactive content carousel to your website. It is highly customizable, allowing you to create beautiful hero sections for your homepage or other pages.

⚙️ General Settings

The slider's behavior can be globally configured from the settings panel:

📍 Display & Location

  • Render Hook: Choose where the slider appears (e.g., HOME TOP or PAGE TOP).
  • Homepage Only: Option to limit the slider visibility strictly to the homepage.

🪄 Transitions & Behavior

  • Auto Slide: Enable automatic slide transitions with a customizable Interval (milliseconds).
  • Pause On Hover: Temporarily stop auto-sliding when a user hovers over the slider.
  • Transition Effects: Switch between Slide or Fade animations.
  • Looping: Use the Wrap settings to enable infinite slide cycling.

  • Caption Styles: Choose from SOLID, GLASS, or GRADIENT caption backgrounds.
  • Transparency & Blur: Adjust the caption opacity and background blur (for Glass effect).

Each slide in the carousel can be individually managed with the following fields:

  • Image: High-quality image upload (supports PNG, JPEG, GIF, WEBP up to 5MB).
  • Title & Subtitle: Text content displayed on top of the image.
  • Link URL: Turn the slide into a clickable call-to-action.
