वर्णन
General Slider is a fast, modern slider for WordPress. Create a slider once, then place it on any page with the block or a shortcode. No page builder and no coding required.
Built on the lightweight Splide engine — no jQuery on the front end, accessible by default, and assets only load on pages that actually show a slider.
Use it as a hero slider, image carousel, testimonial slider, logo carousel, content slideshow or fullscreen banner. Works in the block editor, with a shortcode, and as an Elementor widget — on any block theme or classic theme.
Features
- Reusable sliders — build once, use anywhere
- Gutenberg block, shortcode and Elementor widget
- Five design presets — Hero, Split, Minimal, Testimonial, Fullscreen
- One-click demo slider so you can see how it works straight away
- Per-slide image or background video (self-hosted MP4/WebM, YouTube or Vimeo), sub heading, heading, text, button and a whole-slide link
- Multiple slides per view (carousel) with adjustable gap
- Thumbnail navigation
- Ken Burns zoom and text entrance animations
- Per-slider settings: autoplay (+ speed and pause button), loop, arrows, dots, slide/fade transition, height, overlay (solid or gradient), image fit, image focus and accent colour
- Custom CSS, categories, duplicate and JSON import / export
- Global default settings for new sliders
- Responsive, accessible (keyboard + screen reader, pause control), respects reduced-motion
- Performance friendly: no jQuery on the front end, lazy-loaded images (eager + high-priority first slide), conditional asset loading, RTL ready

नेहमी विचारले जाणारे प्रश्न
-
How do I display a slider?
-
Add the “General Slider” block to any page and pick your slider, or paste the shortcode
[general_slider id="123"](the exact shortcode is shown on each slider’s edit screen). -
Do I need to write any code?
-
No. Everything is done from the WordPress admin.
-
Does it load jQuery?
-
No. The front end uses the lightweight, dependency-free Splide engine.
-
Does it work with Elementor and page builders?
-
Yes. There is a dedicated “General Slider” Elementor widget, and the shortcode works in any page builder or the classic editor.
-
Does it work with my theme?
-
Yes. It works with both block (FSE) themes and classic themes. Slide text inherits your theme’s styling, and you can set an accent colour or add custom CSS per slider.
-
Is it responsive and mobile friendly?
-
Yes. Sliders are fully responsive, and multi-slide carousels automatically reduce the number of slides on tablets and phones.
-
How do I show more than one slide at a time?
-
Open the slider, and in “Slider settings” set “Slides per view” to 2 or more to create a carousel (great for logos, products or testimonials).
-
Can I use a video background?
-
Yes. In a slide’s “Background video” field, paste a YouTube or Vimeo link, or a self-hosted MP4/WebM URL. The video plays muted and looped behind the slide content.
-
Is it accessible?
-
Yes. Sliders support keyboard navigation, screen-reader labels, a play/pause button for autoplay, and respect the “reduced motion” setting.
-
Can I move sliders between sites?
-
Yes. Use the JSON import / export tools on the General Slider > Settings screen.
-
Can developers customise the output?
-
Yes. The plugin provides filters:
general_slider_settings(a slider’s resolved settings),general_slider_slides(the slides before rendering),general_slider_config(the Splide JS options),general_slider_html(the final markup) andgeneral_slider_presets(register your own design preset).

बदलांची यादी
2.3.1
- Maintenance: internal code-quality and coding-standards improvements (no functional changes).
- Fix: uninstall now removes only the plugin’s own data instead of flushing the entire site object cache.
2.3.0
- New: developer filters — general_slider_settings, general_slider_slides, general_slider_config, general_slider_html and general_slider_presets.
- Performance: sliders now initialise only when they scroll near the viewport, so below-the-fold sliders no longer run JavaScript on page load.
