Slider block for images or posts

  • Hi,
    I Know that there’s no GP or GB block for create an slider with static or dynamic content.
    I think that it is a very useful resource when building sites, and I don’t want to install a mastodontic “elementor” or whatever site-builder just for this single feature. Actually I love GP&GB for its simplicity, but I always miss the slider block, I was wondering if the addition of any kind of slider is in your next features checklist? maybe?

    Meanwhile, do you have any recommendation for a lightweight plugin that solves this matter (image slider, posts or CPTs slider)?

    Thanks.

  • @mafsdisseny Apologies, I’m not coming here to help, but actaully looking for exactly this use case as I need a slider on a project and don’t want to overload with “do everything” plugins.

    Would be great (if it existed) to have a block where we could embed a query loop. Maybe:

    – Slider
    – – Query Loop
    – – – Grid
    – – – – Slide
    – – – – – Post Template

    I have tested a few from the repos but nothing seems to suit.

  • Hi there,

    it is on our list of features for this year.

    In the meantime if you want – theres this article from one of our users that explains how to build a slider using GB:

  • @David Ooh. Exciting! Can’t wait.

    Thanks for the link 👍

  • Wow @David, excellent news!

    by the way, the article that you linked is awesome, it is a straight and lightweight solution, I will give it a try, it seems pretty easy to implement!

    Just curious, is that mentioned 2024 feature list posted anywhere?

    There is nothing to apologize @Neil, happy that the post has been of interest 😉

  • The list is not public as its part of the GB Pro GitHub timeline.

    We recently added feedback pages for:

    GenerateBlocks
    https://feedback.generateblocks.com

    GeneratePress
    https://feedback.generatepress.com

    Where you can request features, and we plan to add a roadmap to that page once we get some more traction

  • Thanks for the info.
    Keep up the good work!
