Slidy vs T&P Gallery Slider

Slidy is a reponsive jQuery slider that uses slick carousel by Ken Wheeler and it’s fully integrated into WordPress, so it’s possible to add and administer slides via the Dashboard. You just need to set the image that you want to see in Slidy as the featured image in each post. Slides can be categorized and in this way you can have different sliders on your website. With the functionalities slick carousel brings, it is possible to create sliders in different ways, such as having multiple items unlike many sliders. Also, with the wide range of settings, you can customize your slider in various ways such as inifinite looping, mouse dragging, swiping, arrow key navigation etc. You can also add links to the individual slides via Add/Edit Slide interface. The slides are posts at the same time so you can use them as contents but you may have to edit your theme to view slide images. Note that this version doesn’t cover all functionalities slick carousel provided but the present functionalities are very sufficent for you to create awesome sliders.

There should be a MO file created by Poedit. Send PO and MO files to me, then I will add them in the next release.

New!!! from T&P plugins: T&P Navigation Menu – sticky navigation menu when scroll down the page. Create Images You need all images of your gallery in the same size and have to upload them in the same aspect ratio. 1. The size of the big image is the size of the first in the gallery. You should have all images in the gallery in the same width and heigth to avoid scaling. 2. When putting the mouse over the big image will change.
