Why Use This Widget

Use the Image Slider widget when you want to tell a visual story step by step in one location on the page. Each slide can show a feature, stage, or variation, and visitors move through them using arrows or controls. This is useful for showcasing product sets, process explanations, or campaigns that unfold in several scenes. The slider keeps the layout clean while still allowing you to present multiple images with context. On mobile, it lets users swipe instead of scrolling endlessly through large photos. Overall, it is a flexible way to combine design and narrative, helping visitors understand more while keeping your layout structured and easy to follow.
