Useless - Can't add image in free
By joolsprobablyneedshelp on February 17, 2025
Stay away. It's a paid for feature to have an image in your image slider. What a waste of time
Simple and works very well
By adiestramientocaninos on December 1, 2024
I've been testing other slider plugins for Gutenberg and this is the one that has worked best. Thanks.
Great approach, works perfectly
By galliweb on September 17, 2024
I love it, simple and effective. Perfectly implemented. Well done!
Can't do anything with this plugin
By maikunari on June 27, 2024
You can't create a slider and add a block to it. Which by the name you'd assume you can do. What even is this plugin? It doesn't do anything.
Completely ripped us off. ZERO response to my inquiries
By kaihulshof on May 21, 2024
My company paid for the $99/yr pro version of WP Block Slider about a month ago. We never received a confirmation email. There is no account that has been created for my company. We can't even log in. I've emailed them for support twice through the website with no response. It's not just like stealing, it is stealing. This feels like a scam. Buyer beware.
Terrible support don't go PRO
By Joffrey Nicoloff (agent3w) on May 13, 2024
Plugin basics is good but very limited, and when you are going to PRO, no answer via email, support...
Don't go to PRO.
Doesn't carry CSS styles to page
By jeffhayford on April 14, 2024
I was a little annoyed that I had to go to a separate interface to edit my sliders, but ok put an annoying menu item up super high I guess.
Then I realized that none of my styles were carrying through to the page. As a hack I had to copy paste the block used in the slider and hide it on the page just so the CSS would load.
Then it turns out it wasn't responsive, no matter how many CSS hacks I tried I couldn't get a two column layout to stack. Simple stuff that Gutenslider does inline on the page without issue.
Highly Misleading
By modemlooper on April 6, 2024
The free plug descripiton here is highly misleading. It promotes all the pro features as if they are included. They are not. I like that the UI and the way you add sliders/slides is easy but the misleading nature of the description makes me want to use something else.
Simple, functional, easy to use
By Marty (bozzmedia) on March 13, 2024
Great
By programmin on September 28, 2023
Works well and generous free tier - thanks.
Some Gutenberg editor glitches though with the way multiple slides work.
