Ultimate Slider is an easy-to-use responsive slider plugin that lets you add a clean, modern, image slider to any page on your WordPress site using a simple Gutenberg block or slider shortcode. Create a high-resolution full-width slider that looks great and that transitions well into a beautiful mobile slider.

Key Slider Features

  • Responsive full-width slider layout that adapts to any page setup and size
  • Includes a Gutenberg block, so you can add the slider to any page, post, sidebar or widget area on your site
  • Simple slider shortcode for adding the slider to any page
  • Create an unlimited number of slides for display in your slider
  • Create different slideshows using the built-in slider categories

  • Drag and drop slides to re-arrange slider order

There are various slider customization options, including slider autoplay and the ability to set the slider delay and slide interval times. There is also a custom CSS input that lets you further modify the slider styling, so you can get it looking and working exactly as you need.

[ultimate-slider]

Simply insert the shortcode above into any page to display your slider.

Alternatively you can use the Display Slider block, which you can find by searching for it or directly in the Ultimate Slider block section.

The Ultimate Slider plugin also fully integrates with the Ultimate Product Catalog plugin. This means that you can choose to have a slide’s content and image pulled directly from a specific product from the Ultimate Product Catalog. Alternatively, you can choose to just type in the slide content and set either the featured image or the first image in your post as the slide image.

Each slide has a customizable title and text area. You can also add custom links to each slide in the form of buttons, offering your visitors an easy and upfront way of accessing the most important pages on your site.

After installing, you are greeted with a Welcome page to help you make your first Slider. There is only ‘Upload Image’ without Media Library, and clicking it does nothing.When you create a new slide, it instead takes you to create a new post. If I understand the 7-year old ‘tutorial’, a slideshow is actually a bunch of individual posts with Featured image! There’s no option to add images otherwise, and features that are free in the vastly outdated tutorials are locked behind a subscription paywall, which they have no problem reminding you about on every page. You can’t even change the arrow icon without Premium! The FAQ is of no help either – Q: How do I create a Slider? A: You go to New Slider[ Insert image of Jackie Chan WHAT? meme ]

Genuine review, I went through two Slider Plugins prior to finding this ONE. The prior ones had conflict issues or caused the website to run slow. I’ve now been using Slider Ultimate for a little over two years. This plugin is light weight, responsive, easy to use, customizable and all-around, a GREAT PLUGIN! This plugin has never had any conflicts or issues with my other plugins and has never had any issues with updates and changes to Wordpress. Highly recommended.
