Image slider / slideshow

You have to handle the ‘slider’ part yourself, but typically when you figure out the ‘output’ style for your slider (usually they’re unordered list items with specific ID’s and classes and the slider is displayed with CSS and jQuery), you can output the data using a Shortcode and Pods Template:

We don’t handle the Sliders (that’s outside of our Scope), but I’m sure you can find a solution. Revolution Slider can also work on Custom Post Types, but in that case I would make slides be individual posts and the images be featured images on that post.

Hi Jim, thank you for your reply. I eventually used WooSlider with a shortcode, works perfectly!

Yep, WooSlider is a good one because it’s responsive, based on FlexSlider and is fairly well supported.

I have a similar problem. I want to show slider different for each custom taxonomy. so i am using the smart slider 3. But no code knowledge. so stuck. i was able to generate field and also kept it on the template side. but short code for slider is not working. Text is showing well from that taxonomy to on the front end. but not taxonomy. i selected field type as a visual editor, Please help

Howdy Rajesh, you actually brought this to our Slack Chat (and our GitHub) and we attempted to help you there but as you don’t understand coding, it sounded like something you just didn’t follow in the Slider’s documentation. You’ll see the notes above that the issue wasn’t really with Pods but with the Slider and it’s handling.

Sliders ‘wrap’ the Pods Content, not the other way around and I did take a peek at Smart Slider 3 and it handles Custom Taxonomy ‘filters’ natively, you just have to look at their documentation.

I’m closing this ticket again as resolved because the original poster was happy with the resolution. We always ask that people open new support tickets instead of opening issues off of someone else’s ticket.
