Gallery Slider
With Make, you can transform a normal WordPress gallery grid into a gorgeous slider, which can be used anywhere that you can insert a [gallery] shortcode.
Create a new slider
- In the content editor, place the cursor where you would like to have a gallery slider.
- Click .
- Choose in the left column.
- Select the images from your Media Library to add to the gallery, or upload new images.
- With your images selected, click .
- Reorder your images and/or add captions if necessary.
- In the right column of the Gallery window, find Slider Settings and check the box next to Show gallery as slider. More slider options will now appear.
- Configure your gallery slider, then click .
Shortcode parameters
All of the shortcode parameters can be adjusted through the interface shown above. However, you can also change them manually by editing the contents of the shortcode itself:
- ttfmake_slider: Set this to true to enable the slider.
- ttfmake_autoplay: Set to true will cause the slider to advance automatically after the page loads.
- ttfmake_prevnext: Set to true will display navigation arrows to the previous/next slide.
- ttfmake_pager: Set to true will display dots under the slider to indicate which slide is active.
- ttfmake_delay: The number of milliseconds the slider will wait before advancing.
- ttfmake_effect: The transition effect between slides: scrollHorz, fade, and none.
In addition to the shortcode parameters specifically for the Gallery Slider, many of the parameters for the standard Gallery shortcode are accepted as well.
However, there are a few that will be ignored:
- columns
- itemtag
- icontag
- captiontag
- link
