Possibly the most advanced and customisable carousel image slider addon available for RapidWeaver. SlickSlider is built on the popular opensource Slick plugin. You can configure SlickSlider to display one or more images; complete with optional next / previous button and pagination bullets. As you would expect, SlickSlider is fully responsive and can be configured to display or behave differently at different screen sizes. Image titles and written caption content is displayed tidily beneath your images to prevent encroachment onto the actual images being displayed. SlickSlider can run in either manual or automatic mode. Images can be set as links to other pages, resources or external websites. Built-in ‘lazy loading’ support ensures that your completed webpage loads faster and only images that need to be displayed are ever loaded.
