WordPress Slider

Hey @domainworld,

sorry to hear that Gutenslider does not work as expected on your installation. This is most likely caused by conflicts between other themes / plugins and Gutenslider. I guess that you are using the “twenty nineteen” theme from your screencast. So that is not a possible source of the styling issue.

Can you please try deactivating all other plugins and see if the error persists. If yes I will further investigate.

Also then, please tell us the WordPress version and Gutenslider version you are using.

Hey @tcordova,

for your use case, is it okay to set the initial slide to random? Or do you want all slides to appear randomly?

@ab_lu,

the current version of gutenslider lets you fix this in two ways:

1. set all images to contain: that way, all images will fit into the slide and not be cut. Go to each slide, settings, and set the Display to Contain. note: you can also set the position by changing the focal point.

2. use an adaptive height slider. set Adaptive Height in the slider general settings, and the slider will adapt its height to the image displayed.

hope that helps

Hey @bobeaston,

we added the option for automatic captions in the latest release 4.3.6. See this blog post for a video of how to use it.

The feature that lets you automatically add captions to all your slides at once, is only available in the pro version, as bulk editing is a Gutenslider Pro feature.
However as you came up with the idea, we want to give you a pro lifetime license in return.

If you are interested, send a mail to [email protected] to settle this.

Thanks again.

Hey @bobeaston,

one more question. Do you have a working example of a gutenberg block, that contains media and automatically includes captions? We checked the core blocks “Media + Text” and “Cover”, both load media but have no automatic caption support. Do you know any example in the wild?

A checkbox In the block settings?

This is solved in the latest version. Can you verify?

Hey @linds,

it should be possible but it is not tested, any theme can dequeue scripts and styles. This piece of code is from here, you could add it to your functions.php file.

//Dequeue Styles
function project_dequeue_unnecessary_styles() {
    wp_dequeue_style( 'eedee-gutenslider-slick-css' );
    wp_deregister_style( 'eedee-gutenslider-slick-css' );
    wp_dequeue_style( 'eedee-gutenslider-slick-theme-css' );
    wp_deregister_style( 'eedee-gutenslider-slick-theme-css' );
}
add_action( 'wp_print_styles', 'project_dequeue_unnecessary_styles' );

//Dequeue JavaScripts
function project_dequeue_unnecessary_scripts() {
    wp_dequeue_script( 'eedee-gutenslider-slick-js' );
    wp_deregister_script( 'eedee-gutenslider-slick-js' );
}
add_action( 'wp_print_scripts', 'project_dequeue_unnecessary_scripts' );

This is not tested. Please verify that it works.

Closing due to missing feedback.

Hey @akkara,

Hey @kellybleck,

not yet, but wie can implement it by tuesday. Do you also need slide content or just images?

It is related to the object-fit-css-property gutenslider is using for the slider layout.

https://caniuse.com/#feat=object-fit

It is suppprted by 95% of all browsers and we are sorry to tell you we will not support the other 5%. You can most likely add your own CSS to make it working though.

Best,

Riley

Hey @hawkeye84m,

that is quite difficult to debug, as our browserTesting environment does not allow to start all versions of every browser on every OS. Can you help us debugging? Are you into css and browser tools? Any debug message or more information could help us help you.

Best,

Niklas
