FAQ

Questions and answers

Can I filter the slides by category?

Yes. Type Categories on each slide. When at least two categories are used, tabs appear and each tab shows only its slides.

Can I add many images at once?

Yes. Set Source to A gallery of images and pick them with Add Many Images.

Does the lightbox slow the page down?

The large images load only when the lightbox is opened.

Can visitors pause the autoplay?

Yes. A pause button is always shown with autoplay, and Pause on Hover and Focus is on by default.
