bSlider Pro

WordPress sliders from blocks, feeds, and posts

bSlider creates responsive sliders from pictures, posts, pages, WooCommerce products, videos, or slides assembled with Gutenberg blocks. Add a slider in the block editor or place it elsewhere with a shortcode. Block-built slides can combine headings, images, buttons, and columns. The Template Library includes more than 50 ready-made designs to import and personalize.

With Pro, Style with AI can set a slider’s colors, typography, buttons, and arrows from a one-sentence description. Using your Google Gemini key, it can also draft slide titles, descriptions, button labels, and alt text from an picture.

Feed sources and dynamic fields

Pro can create sliders from a YouTube channel, Instagram account, RSS feed, or JSON endpoint, with feed results cached on a schedule you pick. Presets include channel grid, player grid, theater, reels, card, and hover-overlay formats. YouTube feed controls can filter by search term, playlist, or privacy status, group results, and set thumbnail quality. YouTube and Instagram feeds require credentials obtained outside WordPress.

A profile header card can display a name, picture, follower count, and Follow button. The mini player can dock a video in a corner as a visitor scrolls, while hover preview plays a video preview within its slide.

Dynamic Content binds a post or product to a slide. Post Field blocks can point to various posts, allowing one slide to show fields from multiple sources. Convert a Post Field into a Heading, Paragraph, or Image block to continue editing it in Gutenberg. Slides can also display Advanced Custom Fields. Pro adds unlimited ACF fields per slide, custom field sorting and filtering, and sliders for registered custom post types.

Layouts, motion, and playback

Choose carousel, grid, or thumbnails layouts; Pro also includes a list layout and advanced carousel styles such as ticker and 3D effects. Carousels can loop and autoplay horizontally or vertically. Grid pagination can use standard buttons or Load More, and thumbnails have their own navigation and styling controls. Pro adds settings such as slide navigation by mouse wheel or drag, cursor-following arrows, and custom arrow designs.

Set slide transitions, autoplay timing, hover pause, navigation, indicators, overlays, content placement, borders, padding, and alignment. Layer animations can run on entry, with Pulse and Bounce loop effects; Pro adds Lottie layers, exit animations, precise timing, more loop effects, and word-by-word text animation. Typography, hover colors, and device-specific layer visibility help tune the presentation across screen sizes.

Video options include playback controls, reset-on-end, and hiding controls while a visitor is idle. Pro adds mute, picture-in-picture, AirPlay, download, and fullscreen tools. The image lightbox can display a slider’s images as a gallery, with captions, toolbar, backdrop, and per-slide controls.

Add and configure a slider

In WordPress, add the bSlider block or use a shortcode where the slider should appear. Choose a content source and layout, configure its display and responsive settings, reorder slides with drag-and-drop, then preview the result before publishing.
