What it does
Many sites need a way to rotate through products, portfolio pieces, testimonials or featured content in a small amount of space. This plugin handles that inside Elementor, so you build and adjust sliders in the same editor you already use for your pages. It requires Elementor to run. Slides can hold rich descriptions and media added through a built-in TinyMCE editor, and you can pick between two display modes depending on how you want the content laid out.
Visitors can move through slides in several ways: touch and swipe on phones and tablets, mouse drag on desktops, and mouse or keyboard controls. Transitions use hardware-accelerated animations, and the output is responsive and retina ready, so slides adapt to different screen sizes and look sharp on high-resolution displays. Six prebuilt Elementor templates are included as starting points, which helps when you want a finished slider quickly and plan to adjust the details afterward.
Best for
- Elementor users adding sliders to pages
- Portfolio and product sites presenting visual content
- Freelancers building sliders for client websites
Features
Touch and swipe navigation
Mobile visitors can swipe between slides, while desktop visitors can drag slides with the mouse, giving natural control on each type of device.
Mouse and keyboard controls
Sliders respond to mouse and keyboard input, which gives visitors more than one way to move through your content and helps with accessibility.
Rich slide content
An integrated TinyMCE editor lets you add formatted descriptions and multimedia to each slide, so slides can carry more than a single image.
Two display modes
Choose between two slider layouts to match the type of content you are presenting and the overall design of the page.
Six importable templates
Six ready-made Elementor slideshow and slider templates can be imported as starting points, saving setup time on new projects or client pages.
Responsive and retina ready
Sliders adjust to desktops, tablets and smartphones, and visuals stay sharp on high-resolution screens for a consistent look across devices.
Hardware-accelerated animations
Slide transitions use hardware acceleration, which keeps movement between slides smooth on the devices your visitors use.
