The slider would then take those slides and present them as a jQuery-powered slideshow – at a chosen location within your theme, page, or post. In whatever order you want them. Check out the Demo to see the plugin in action: **[See the Demo](http://demo.alienwp.com/responsive-slider/)** > Upgrade to a paid membership for support, themes & Pro version of plugin: > **[Upgrade for Support](http://alienwp.com/register/)** > Includes 20 WordPress Themes, Customer Support for just $59 The main purpose of the _Responsive Slider_ is to serve as an effective addition to **responsive WordPress themes**, as it would automatically adjust to its container. This would work out of the box – there is no need for additional CSS or JavaScript tweaks from your theme.

My slider disappeared when I upgraded!? Make sure to use `` instead of `` if you are adding the slider directly to your template file. But the slider is not responsive! The slider addapts to it’s container width. If you are using a theme with non-responsive layout, the slider won’t behave ‘responsively’ as well. Would the Responsive Slider work in my theme? The plugin has been tested with more than 20 popular WordPress themes. It should work in yours too. Does my theme need to be ‘responsive’ in order to use this plugin? No, not at all. You can use it with any theme. Can I change the way it looks? Sure, you can easily override the slider CSS in your theme. The easiest approach is to use a tool like Firebug to find the snippet you need to override. Then copy it to your theme CSS file (usually `style.css`) and edit it there, using a CSS selector with higher priority. Can I create more than one slider? No, currently the plugin can maintain only one slider. ## Reviews ![](https://secure.gravatar.com/avatar/a066709bfcb4478f3a28f5b701ffb2e7966fda7f2367b4747b76b8058e938c2c? s=60&d=retro&r=g) ### 󠀁[Simple and Clean](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/simple-and-clean-53/)󠁿 [Griden](https://profiles.wordpress.org/griden/) September 3, 2016 Simple, clean and responsive slider [ Read all 34 reviews ](https://wordpress.org/support/plugin/responsive-slider/reviews/) ## Contributors & Developers “Responsive Slider” is open source software.
