MetaSlider: https://www.metaslider.com/ 

 

  • MetaSlider is an extremely popular and intuitive drag-and-drop builder which has been leveraged to create aesthetic, responsive sliders and carousels. 
  • A key advantage of this plugin is that it allows the slider to be fully responsive across desktop, mobile, and tablet. 
  • Other Key Features: 
    • MetaSlider is incredibly flexible, and different types of media can be embedded into the carousel. For example, website managers can include images, videos, blog posts, etc. in the carousel. 
    • Unlike other plugins which focus on designing carousels for sites, MetaSlider is optimized for speed and increasing user engagement.
    • MetaSlider is also SEO-optimized. In fact, there is a MetaSlider SEO tab which enables website managers to set image title and alternate text for all slides, making it easier for external visitors to find content on the site. 

 

  • Limitations: 
    • There are several features which can only be accessed in the Pro version of MetaSlider. For instance, Youtube and Vimeo video slides, HTML slides, and Dynamic Post Feed/Featured Image Slides are only available in the Pro version. However, if an organization has a somewhat flexible budget, these features can prove to be useful.Â
