WordPress slideshow widget is an attractive way to show breaking or important news on your site. The widget is very configurable and the content for it can be included very easily.
We used it on several of our themes, for example, Hot Destinations (demo). On one side of the widget, there are a big picture and control buttons, and, on another side, there are heading, text, read more link and a small image.
Everything can be done through the widget’s options panel. There are many parameters available in the WordPress slideshow widget settings, as you can see on the screenshot published on this page. You can control many things, including the widget’s dimensions (left and right side, and overall width), fonts (family, weight, style) of the headings and text, image borders, etc. The animation speed is also parametrized, so you can control up/down movements of the side column as well as the fade speed of the big image transitions.
This plugin does not fetch content from your WordPress posts or pages. Long pages/posts are not appropriate content for this plugin. All that you should prepare for each slide of the WordPress slideshow widget is:
Once you have prepared this, you can go to the WordPress slideshow widget’s options and enter the slide elements into one of 15 available “slots”. Each “slot” here represent one slide of your widget. It’s simple and easy! Let’s summarize all available options that come with the WordPress slideshow widget here:
