## Description

Create a fully responsive image slider as a native block — and nothing more. One
simple block with everything it needs.

Version 3.0 removes jQuery and the slick carousel library entirely. The slider is
now powered by native CSS scroll-snapping and a tiny script, so it is faster, works
before JavaScript loads, and its assets are only loaded on pages that actually contain
a slider.

Features:

 * Simple image slider with fade or scroll effect
 * Autoplay with separate “time between slides” and transition speed settings, plus
   pause on hover
 * Optional arrow and dot navigation
 * Optional infinite looping
 * Crop images to a uniform ratio, or keep natural sizes with adaptive height
 * Image linking to the media file, attachment page or a custom URL
 * Choose the image resolution used in the slider
 * Accessible: play/pause button, keyboard navigation, screen-reader labels, respects
   reduced-motion preferences
 * Lightweight: no jQuery, no external libraries, assets load only where the block
   is used

## Blocks

This plugin provides 1 block.

 *   Image Slider Block Display multiple images in an elegant, lightweight slider.

## Installation

 1. Upload the extracted plugin files to the `/wp-content/plugins` directory, or install
    the plugin through the WordPress plugins screen directly.
 2. Activate the plugin through the “Plugins” menu in WordPress.
 3. Find the Image Slider block in the Media category of the block inserter.

## FAQ

### Can I change the arrow or dot icons?

There is no setting for this, but the controls are plain buttons (`.isb-arrow`, `.
isb-dots button`, `.isb-pause`) that you can restyle with custom CSS.

### Will my existing sliders keep working after updating to 3.0?

Yes. Sliders created with older versions keep working on the frontend as they are,
and are upgraded to the new format automatically the next time you edit the post.

What a wonderful plugin. I’ve been looking for a slider plugin days now, and this
one is, which exactly fulfills this one task. Without being overwhelmed by a large
number of options. Without cluttering up the backend with extra menus and advertising.
No upgrades, no features, just a simple block, with everything it needs. Thanks 
for that.

 [David James](https://profiles.wordpress.org/davidcodevier/) 21 Fevrer 2023

I loved using Image Slider Blocks and found it a lightweight and simple plugin. 
It made my work easier! The plugin works smoothly and doesn’t demand massive memory
use, which is a great advantage.

Hi, i like simple blocks and your block is such a block. Must the most necessary
features – no unnecessary stuff or confusing settings. But this code block needs
to be “is_admin()” only: wp_register_style( 'oacs-image-slider-blocks', plugins_url('
css/editor.css', __FILE__ ), array( 'wp-edit-blocks' ), filemtime( plugin_dir_path(
__FILE__ ) . 'css/editor.css' ) ); wp_enqueue_style( 'oacs-image-slider-blocks');

This is exactly what I was looking for three simple images on a site. No need to
do 10,000 options, massive memory use or other fluff. This works perfectly!

It works out of the box and do exactly what I was searching for : a simple and responsive
slider that can replace the Gutenberg gallery block. It is so rare now to find such
light plugin. Keep up this good work !
