Present video in a responsive slider
Video Slider Pro helps you build video-based sliders and carousels in WordPress without programming skills. It supports videos from YouTube, Vimeo, Vevo, and MP4, allowing you to combine hosted and local video content in slideshow presentations. The responsive design is intended for mobile devices and is listed as working across iPhone, iPad, Android, Firefox, Chrome, Safari, Opera, and Internet Explorer.
Use the plugin to present product demonstrations, featured videos, educational material, campaign content, or a sequence of media items. Videos can be arranged in a selected order, displayed with titles and descriptions, and shown in different slider formats according to the needs of each page.
Layouts and slideshow controls
Video Slider Pro includes multiple slideshow types and supports full-width, full-screen, and boxed layouts. Listed formats include a content slider, slick slider, thumbnails carousel, content popup, simple video slider, vertical thumbnails, horizontal posts slider, rich slider, timeline slider, amazing simple slider, and services. Different sliders can be used on different pages.
- Choose the number of slides to display.
- Set the starting slide.
- Enable or disable automatic slideshow start.
- Control pause time and slide-change speed.
- Enable or disable navigation arrows, bullets, or previous and next buttons.
- Use touch navigation on mobile browsers and keyboard navigation.
- Rearrange videos with drag-and-drop functionality.
Transitions use smooth hardware-accelerated CSS3 effects with a jQuery fallback. The source lists 30 transition effects and additional animation choices, including horizontal, vertical, blocks, and shuffle effects.
Titles, layers, and visual styling
Each video can include a title, description, buttons, links, and other content. You can choose whether titles and descriptions are shown, adjust title colors, and use the built-in text-style settings for names, titles, and descriptions. The plugin supports text layers, image layers, HTML layers, and video layers, along with layer animations.
Additional appearance controls cover overlay color, backgrounds, borders, edges, and shadows. Navigation button and bullet styles can also be configured. These options make it possible to adapt the slider presentation to the surrounding page design while keeping the selected video content central.
Embedding and control
Shortcode support makes it possible to place a configured slider within WordPress content. The plugin also provides external methods for updating, resetting, and removing a slider after creation. This can be useful when a page requires more control over an existing slider instance.
Installation and setup
Install Video Slider Pro in WordPress, create a slider, select videos from the supported sources, and configure its layout, dimensions, navigation, timing, effects, and content. Arrange the videos by drag and drop, then place the finished slider using its shortcode. The settings also include options for width, height, and fixed or responsive dimensions.
