Frequently Asked Questions
Common questions about General 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).
Check these in order: (1) the slider has at least one slide and is published; (2) the block or shortcode actually points to that slider — the exact shortcode is shown on the slider's edit screen; (3) if your site uses page caching, clear the cache so the latest version loads. Still stuck? Ask in the support forum with your page link and we'll help.
No. Everything is done from the WordPress admin.
No. The front end uses the lightweight, dependency-free Splide engine.
No. There is no jQuery and no external libraries; CSS/JS load only on pages that actually contain a slider, images are lazy-loaded (the first slide is prioritised for a better LCP), and sliders initialise only when scrolled into view.
Yes. General Slider works smoothly alongside caching and performance plugins. If you edit a slider and the change doesn't appear on the front end right away, just clear your site's cache to see the latest version.
Yes — pick a navigation & frame skin in the slider's settings box, or set a site-wide default under General Slider → Settings. Skins change the chrome (arrows, dots, frame) and work with every design preset: Classic, Soft (floating card), Stories and Stories Progress (segmented top lines — Progress fills over the autoplay interval), Numbers (editorial 01 02 03), Vertical (right-edge dots), Corner (square corner arrows), Neon (accent glow), Minimal, Pill, Outline, Retro, Glass and Dark. Developers can register their own via the general_slider_skins filter.
Three layers, no code needed: pick a design preset (the slide layout), a navigation & frame skin (the chrome) and your accent colour — all in the slider's settings box, with site-wide defaults under General Slider → Settings. Overlay darkness/style, height, image fit and focus are per-slider too. For anything beyond that, each slider has its own Custom CSS box.
Yes. There is a dedicated "General Slider" Elementor widget, and the shortcode works in any page builder or the classic editor.
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.
