AppRanks verdict
Generated from live marketplace data — refreshed daily
Rockon Owl Slider is a category-leading WordPress app with a limited review volume. Category data on the canonical marketplace listing is currently incomplete, so AppRanks falls back to platform-wide rather than category-relative comparison for this listing. 2 reviews put it in the early-traction tier — useful for early-stage stores willing to be on the leading edge. Early-traction review counts are sensitive to single launch periods or feature events, so a 30-day re-check before bigger commitments often resolves whether the trend is sustained. Paid-only pricing means evaluating fit on the marketplace listing or via the developer's documentation before installing. AppRanks tracks rating, review count, pricing tier, and category position daily — the figures on this page reflect the most recent scrape from the canonical WordPress Plugin Directory listing.
Pros
- +High average rating (5.0★) signals consistent merchant satisfaction
- +Published by Vikas Sharma — established developer track record
Cons
- −Limited review base (2) — ratings can shift significantly with new feedback

How Rockon Owl Slider works
Show full descriptionShow less
Rockon Owl Slider is a simple, responsive WordPress slider plugin built on Owl Carousel 2, a touch-enabled jQuery plugin.
Slides are a custom post type, so you create them the same way you create any post. Each slide uses its featured image as the background, its title and excerpt as the caption, and can carry an optional link that opens in the same tab or a new one.
Add the slider anywhere with the [ROCKON_OWL] shortcode.
Features

Touch and swipe enabled
Responsive, with fluid slide heights on phones and tablets

Go to Rockon Owl Slider > Add New Slide in the admin menu.
