Slider, Carousel, and Slideshow by Slider Factory – Image Slider, Video Slider vs Splide Carousel Block

Slider Factory is a WordPress slider plugin for creating responsive image sliders, carousels, and slideshows. Pick images from your WordPress Media Library, choose one of 12 free layouts, and publish the slider on any page with a shortcode — no coding required. It works with the WordPress block editor and popular page builders such as Elementor, Divi, and WPBakery. Introducing Slider Factory Slider Factory is an all-in-one slider plugin for WordPress. You can add images, configure slider settings, and see the results using the live preview mode. Each slider you build loads only the CSS and JavaScript required by the layouts you use, and Slider Factory works with all major WordPress page builders — Elementor, Gutenberg, Divi, WPBakery, Beaver Builder, and more. Responsive Image Sliders An image slider displays a sequence of photos with transition effects, arrows, and optional captions. In Slider Factory, select images from your WordPress Media Library, drag them into order, add a caption or link, and the slider is ready to publish. Image sliders support touch-swipe navigation, so visitors can swipe through photos on phones and tablets. The same images can power a full-width hero image slider, a centered image slider, or a photo carousel. Whether you need a full-width image slider, a hero image slider, or a simple gallery carousel slider, Slider Factory covers these use cases. Video Sliders (Pro) With Slider Factory Pro you can create video sliders. A video slider allows you to display YouTube videos and Vimeo videos directly inside your slider. You can mix and match video slides with image slides to create a carousel slider with both types. The video slider automatically pauses when users navigate to the next slide. Drag and Drop Slider Builder Creating a slideshow does not require any technical skills. Slider Factory includes a drag-and-drop slide builder: Instant Preview — see your slider exactly as it will appear on your website before publishing. Multi-Select & Bulk Delete — manage your image slider slides quickly with multi-select tools. Clone Slider — duplicate any image slider or carousel slider with a single click. Easy Reordering — drag and drop your image slides to change their order in the slideshow instantly. Fully Responsive and Mobile-Ready Slider Every image slider, video slider, and carousel slider created with Slider Factory is 100% responsive. Your slideshow automatically adapts to fit any screen size — from large desktop monitors to smartphones and tablets. The image sliders feature touch-swipe navigation for mobile users to swipe through the carousel. Compatible with All Page Builders (Elementor Slider) Slider Factory uses a shortcode system, so you can embed your image slider or carousel slider anywhere on your site: Elementor Slider — use the shortcode widget to add your image slider directly into any Elementor page.
