Slider Layouts

  • Fixed 
    A None Responsive Version of the Slider. Will have a prepared Width and height. Used for Older Themes
     
  • Custom (it has been called "Responsive" in Earlier version)
    A Custom Grid system to set size of Slider per Browser Size. You can define different Levels for sizes. Only used for Frameworks where no Fluid Widths has been used. (i.e. Skeleton)
     
  • AutoResponsive (it has been called "Fullwdith" in earlier versions)
    Used for Fluid Responsive themes, where the Slider calculates its onw size for every Browser size. Only max widt hand height of Grid should be defined. In case the Container Width is not Boxed, it will go Fullwidth Automatically
     
  • FullScreen
    Slider will take the height of Window and center the preseted Grid within. It will always try to go FullHeight and Fullwidth if the wrapping container allows.  

Grid Settings

Depending on the Layout you can set the Width and Height of the Captions. The Slider will go Fullwdith or Fullwidth and Fullheight in case you set AutoResponsive or FullScreen.  Caption Grid will be centered always within the slider container.

In some cases (Custom) you can set multiple Levels depending on Screen Size. This is not needed in AutoResponsive and FullScreen mode.  

Fullscreen mode allows you to set a Container (per class or ID) which heights decrease the height of the FullScreen Slider Container automatically in every responsive level

Troubleshooting

In Some Theme the Output of the Slider is broken, filled due br and p tags. Also some theme has jQuery conflicts or embedding the jQuery library in a way which would break the slider. In this case please turn on the Output Filters, and try the different settings to see if the Output art fix your issue.  (most Problem solved by setting this to "by Echo Output")
