== Description ==

* Many more


> Note: No support for slick’s responsive options feature (different options at different breakpoints) at the moment.

> Note: Slick Slider requires at least PHP 5.6! That means it won’t work on websites which are powered by PHP older than version 5.6!
> If you don’t know your website’s PHP version ask your host and request an update if necessary. [Click here](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/attention-slick-slider-requires-at-least-php-5-6/) for more information.


Slick Slider uses the awesome [slick slider](https://kenwheeler.github.io/slick/) written by Ken Wheeler.

== Screenshots ==

1. Media settings. All available options are listed here.
2. Gallery Media Modal. Only the most important options are visible.
3. Frontend with slider.

== Frequently Asked Questions ==

= I don’t want all galleries to become sliders! Is this possible? =

Absolutely! On each gallery Media Modal there’s a checkbox called “Use Slick Slider”. If you leave this box unchecked your gallery will be a simple … gallery.

= Is it possible to place the slider somewhere else, say in a widget? =

Since Slick Slider uses the default gallery shortcode, you can simply paste it wherever you want it to appear.
Note that you may need to [enable support for shortcodes in widgets](http://www.wpbeginner.com/wp-tutorials/how-to-use-shortcodes-in-your-wordpress-sidebar-widgets/). Additionally if you want to edit the slider options you’ll have to change it using the shortcode attributes directly.

= Is it possible to specify custom links for the gallery images? =

Use the plugin [WP Gallery Custom Links](https://wordpress.org/plugins/wp-gallery-custom-links/).

> Note: Only support for custom URLs and link targets (including the filter `wpgcl_filter_raw_gallery_link_url`). No support for additional custom fields or shortcode attributes.

= Is it possible to open linked images in a lightbox? =

Use the plugin [WP Featherlight](https://wordpress.org/plugins/wp-featherlight/).

> Note: The gallery’s setting “Link To” has to be set to “Media File”.

= Is it possible to add captions? =

Use the option “Show caption”.
> Note: The captions aren’t styled. You need to apply some CSS on them (use the class `.slide__caption`).

= Is it possible to use slick’s JS and CSS independently? =

Paste the following lines in your functions.php:

`add_action( 'wp_enqueue_scripts', function() {
	wp_enqueue_script( 'slick-slider-core' );
	wp_enqueue_style( 'slick-slider-core-theme' );
}, 11 );`

= Is it possible to prevent slick’s JS and CSS to get loaded? = 

Paste the following lines in your functions.php:

`add_action( 'wp_enqueue_scripts', function() {
	wp_deregister_script( 'slick-slider-core' );
	wp_deregister_style( 'slick-slider-core' );
}, 11 );`

> Note: This will also remove the initiation script and helper CSS from the page (see below).

= Is it possible to prevent the slider from getting automatically initiated? =

Use `add_filter( 'slick_slider_init_slider', '__return_false' );`.

= Is it possible to prevent the plugin from adding additional helper CSS on my page? =

These three line of CSS are sometimes required if the page has a white background. Otherwise the slider arrows won’t be visible.
You can turn it off by using `add_filter( 'slick_slider_load_helper_css', '__return_false' );`.

= Is it possible to change the gallery attributes using PHP? =

Use the WordPress core filter [`shortcode_atts_gallery`](http://codex.wordpress.org/Function_Reference/shortcode_atts_gallery).

= Is it possible to adjust the caption’s markup? =

Use the filter `slick_slider_caption_html`. Parameters: caption HTML, attachment ID, post ID, slider instance.

= Is it possible to adjust the markup for each slide? =

Use the filter `slick_slider_slide_html`. Parameters: slide HTML, attachment ID, post ID, slider instance.

= Is it possible to adjust the markup for the entire slider? =

Use the filter `slick_slider_html`. Parameters: slider HTML, post ID, slider instance.

= Is it possible to enqueue scripts and styles unminified? =

Use the constant [`SCRIPT_DEBUG`](https://codex.wordpress.org/Debugging_in_WordPress#SCRIPT_DEBUG).

= I want to buy you a beer! =

Thats great, thanks! First of all, you should say thank you to [Ken Wheeler](http://kenwheeler.github.io/) who developed the actual slick slider.
