3 reasons to create
your website carousels with Slider Revolution
Carousels are a creative way to promote your very best or latest content within a single section while providing a teaser of what else you have to offer.
Break away from the norm and add some surprising touches to your carousel designs with Slider Revolution.
But website carousels can do much more than serve as links to other pages. With Slider Revolution, you can make carousels more engaging with lightbox pop-ups, integrated video players, hover-revealed details, and much more.
With Slider Revolution, you can create more enchanting and immersive-feeling carousels. Instead of clicking from card to card, your visitors will swipe their way through a unique visual experience.
Slider Revolution doesn’t play by those rules. With just a few clicks, you can add layers to your design to make certain aspects of it pop. You can even turn your entire carousel into a three-dimensional experience.

only limitation
“I have been using Slider Revolution on a few different websites I have made for clients. I could not imagine not using Slider Revolution on future websites! It is easy to use and with so many different options my imagination is my only limitation. Highly recommend.”

Frequently asked questions
about Slider Revolution carousels
A carousel is a website component that contains numerous slides, cards, or screens. Visitors are able to scroll or swipe through a carousel to reveal all of the content contained within it.
Carousels are great for promoting content. For example:
Recent blog posts or articles
Related products
Most popular recipes
Upcoming events
Social media posts
Because of how flexible Slider Revolution is, you can use carousels for anything you want. For instance, you could use them on business websites to show off high-profile testimonials or to introduce visitors to your team members.
Yes, you can.
To start, every Slider Revolution carousel template is responsive out of the box. So you’ll automatically have a responsive carousel design to work with.
If you make any changes to the desktop version of the template, Slider Revolution will automatically adjust those elements to suit the smaller screen sizes. That said, our responsive editor and preview mode allow you to customize the interface and user experience for laptops, tablets, and smartphones as much or as little as you want.
Although the terms “slider” and “carousel” may be used interchangeably, there’s a distinct difference in these two rotating website components.
A carousel is often smaller in stature than sliders. Even if a carousel component fills the entire screen, visitors can see more than one slide or card at a time. Also, carousels tend to be user-controlled vs. set to auto-rotate.
A slider, on the other hand, tends to be a fullscreen rotating component. Generally, only one slide appears at a time. Sliders can be auto-rotating and/or allow for manual control.
Some years ago, people were calling for an end to carousels and sliders. However, that was back when these rotating elements were ugly, buggy, and slow. But carousels remain an effective way to engage visitors and increase click-through rates.
The best way to create carousels for a WordPress website is with Slider Revolution. The plugin features an intuitive drag-and-drop interface that makes it easy to design and customize your website carousel with various elements such as multiple images, videos, and text. You can also add animations, transitions, and other effects without writing any code at all.
Unlike many WordPress carousel plugins, Slider Revolution users can take advantage of many different avenues of support. Helpful resources are available directly from within the visual editor. Also, we have a user manual, tutorials, video guides, and more in our Support Center.
If you get stuck while using the plugin, your premium Slider Revolution license gives you access to ticket support where our team of experts are ready and waiting to help.
