About this plugin
XtremeSlider is a free, lightweight WordPress slider plugin that lets you create stunning image sliders with four distinct layout modes and embed them anywhere using a simple shortcode.
Built for performance — the frontend uses pure vanilla JavaScript with zero external dependencies.
Four Layout Modes
Default — Editorial full-bleed slider with peek effect. Center slides are fully visible while adjacent slides peek from the edges. Features infinite seamless looping, vertical title text overlay, and caption/description sections below center slides.
Cool — Card-based slider with customizable gradient background. Rounded-corner slides with hover lift effects and pagination dots.
3D — Dramatic CSS perspective slider with depth transforms. Center slide is prominent while adjacent slides rotate and scale back in 3D space with glassmorphism-styled arrows. Per-slider background color.
Options — Static grid of clickable option cards (image + title + caption). Clicking a card reveals its own HTML content in a detail panel below — useful for product variants, plan comparisons, or “pick one, see details” interfaces. Each card’s HTML is editable with inline Code / Preview tabs.
Per-slider background color.
