Good Slider

Сүрөттөө

This plugin provides a very simple slider block which is based on Swiper v8.
The plugin provides a UI for the most common swiper options (navigation, pagination, slides per view). But it is specifically made to be extended via PHP.
Therefore, it provides many PHP filter hooks to change its behaviour.

The plugin is used in some custom themes and through it’s PHP configuration it’s perfect for a locked-in design (eg agency, clients).
Through the filters it’s also very easy to extend in your own functions.php file.

FAQ.KG

How can I change the swiper arguments (like slides shown etc)

The UI currently allows for enabling/disabling navigation and pagination and the desktops default number of slides per view.

You can use the good-slider/swiper-options filter hook to set the swiper configuration for a specific block instance.
Have a look at the examples on GitHub.

All the available arguments are documented in the Swiper v8 documentation.

Can I use my own enqueued Swiper script?

Yes you can use the good-slider/swiper-script-handle filter hook to change the name of the swiper script handle.

Can I use more Swiper options?

By default, a stripped-down version of Swiper is enqueued, which only includes the most commonly used modules (A11y, Keyboard, Lazy, Navigation, Pagination).
You can use the good-slider/swiper-script-handle filter and set it to good-slider-swiper-full to enqueue the full Swiper bundle with all modules, or you can use or own (see above).

Does the plugin provide a UI for slider settings and styles in the block editor?

Thanks to recent additions to core, our slider and slide block now allow for setting most of the common styling settings:
– spacing
– colors (text, background, link)
– typography
– background image
– content positioning (justify-content + align-items)

Also, v3.0.0 introduced a UI for enabling/disabling some of the most common settings of Swiper (navigation, pagination, slides shown).

We are working on adding more UI controls but also providing the possibility for developers to disable them.

How can I lock the editing experience (e.g. in patterns)?

The block integrates with features WordPress core provides to lock and curate the editing experience.

Template locking
Both the slider and slide block have a templateLock attributes, which you can set in variations, patterns or templates to any of the values [ "all", "insert", "contentOnly", false ].

See the examples on GitHub.

Example 1: (fixed-slides.html) Create a slider with a fixed amount of slides, but flexible content of those slides:
Set the templateLock attribute to “all” on the slider block and to false on all slides.

Allowed blocks
Since WordPress 6.5 you can set a allowedBlocks setting on all instances of a block type upon registration.
If you want to globally restrict the allowed blocks inside slides, have a look at this new feature.

Example 2: (allowed-blocks.html) Create a slider with restricted allowed blocks inside slides. Set the allowedBlocks attribute on the slide block to an array of allowed block types.

Variations
You can also create block variations of the slide block with the innerBlocks and attributes prefilled.
See slide-variations.js in the examples directory.
