Overview

About this plugin

SosWoo Responsive Image Slider is a lightweight WordPress plugin for creating responsive image sliders from your WordPress Media Library. Create and manage multiple sliders, configure autoplay and animation settings, choose horizontal or vertical movement, and display each slider on a post or page with a simple shortcode.

The plugin includes click-to-zoom and optional full-screen lightbox viewing. Its bundled Swiper library is loaded locally, so the slider does not depend on an external CDN. The responsive layout adapts to desktop, tablet, and mobile screens.
