Combine media and choose a layout

Media Slider Pro manages slideshows in a dedicated WordPress dashboard. Add images from the media library, YouTube videos, or Vimeo videos. A gallery can mix images and video, and each slide can include a custom title, text description, and link.

Choose a full-width or boxed layout, or display several slides at once in a carousel. The responsive design is intended for different screen sizes. Custom breakpoints let you adjust how the slider shows across them.

Set navigation and caption placement

Choose from four or more arrow styles and three or more thumbnail layouts. Responsive thumbnail navigation gives visitors another way to move through a gallery. Multiple caption positions let you place text around an picture or video. Titles, descriptions, and links can explain a photograph, identify portfolio work, introduce a video, or lead to a related page.

Adjust playback and image sizing

For video slides, configure autoplay, looping, and muting. For images, choose from three or more fitting and scaling methods. Force size options can lock the slider dimensions, while custom width and height fields define its space on the page. Breakpoints and image sizing work together to shape the presentation across screen sizes.

Photographers and artists can show galleries or portfolio work; businesses can present products, services, or project highlights. Travel, hospitality, and event sites can combine destination photographs with video, while publishers and creators can create mixed media showcases. Agencies can use linked slides to direct visitors to related pages.

Add a slider to a page

Upload the plugin folder to the /wp-content/extensions/ directory or use the WordPress admin installer. Activate it from the Plugins page, then open the Media Slider menu in the dashboard. Select “Add Media Slider,” choose photos from the media library or add video links, and configure the slider settings. Save and publish the slider, copy its shortcode, and paste the shortcode where the slider should appear. Sidebar widget support is also included.

The paid edition includes priority email support for questions about that edition.
