Image Slider Macro (Deprecated)

 

This macro is Deprecated and replaced by the new Image Slider Macro.

Use the Image Slider macro on a page to display all the image attachments of the current page in a nice-looking image slider. You can also specify a label to collect attachments from multiple pages or blogposts, even from different spaces.

Use attachment comments as image captions to display more information in the image slider. You can even link the images to the pages or blogposts they are attached to, e.g. to create a nice blogpost teaser on your dashboard. There are also multiple transition effects you can choose from and lots of configuration options like responsive width, different navigation types, slide numbers, etc. to adjust the image slider to your needs.

Tip: Make sure all images are of the same size. If the images have different sizes, the image slider will use the size of the smallest image for all images.
