What it does
Showing a transformation usually means placing two photos side by side and hoping visitors notice what changed. This addon puts both images in the same space and adds a slider that visitors move themselves, which makes the change easy to see. It works for before-and-after edits, renovation or makeover results, product comparisons and visual storytelling, and it needs no coding because everything is built inside Elementor's drag-and-drop editor.
You start from one of 10 preset designs, then adjust the titles, descriptions, buttons, images and colors to match your site. The comparison sliders are responsive and retina ready, so they adapt to different screen sizes and high-resolution displays. The plugin works with WordPress themes that support Elementor, runs across modern browsers and includes a .pot file for translation. Documentation and setup guides are included for beginners and experienced builders.
Best for
- Photographers and retouchers presenting before-and-after edits
- Renovation, beauty and makeover businesses displaying results
- Designers and agencies building client sites in Elementor
