Description
Wexlab Advanced Slider Lite for Elementor is an independent Elementor slider and carousel addon developed by Wexlab. Unlike generic “widget pack” plugins, this plugin is focused entirely on sliders and carousels, giving every widget significantly more design control than a basic slider block.
Included widgets (8):
- Advanced Image Slider — captions, links, lightbox, thumbnail navigation
- Hero Slider — full-width/full-height hero banners with overlays and dual buttons
- Testimonial Slider — ratings, avatars, verified badges, company logos
- Logo Slider — grayscale/hover color client & partner logo walls
- Content Slider — flexible image + text + button slides
- Image Carousel — multi-item carousel with spacing and center mode
- Card Carousel — image/icon/badge cards with equal-height support
- Post Slider — pulls real WordPress posts by category, order and count
Built on one shared slider engine:
Every widget reuses the same lightweight, dependency-free (no jQuery) JavaScript engine, so you get consistent behaviour — autoplay, pause on hover, keyboard navigation, touch swipe, mouse drag, arrows, dot pagination — everywhere, without bloating your page with duplicate scripts.
Deep Style tab, not just basic styling:
Background, border, radius, shadow, spacing, typography, hover states, arrow and pagination styling, star ratings and badges are all exposed as native Elementor Style controls, each with full Desktop / Tablet / Mobile responsive support.
Accessible and performant by default:
- Keyboard navigation and ARIA labelling on every slider
prefers-reduced-motionis respected — entrance animations are skipped for users who request reduced motion- Native image lazy-loading
- Assets are only enqueued on pages that actually use a Wexlab widget

FAQ
-
Does this require Elementor?
-
Yes. Wexlab Advanced Slider Lite is an Elementor addon and requires the free Elementor plugin to be installed and active. If Elementor is missing, the plugin shows an admin notice and does nothing else — it will not cause a fatal error.
-
Can I use this alongside Wexlab Advanced Slider Pro?
-
Yes. Lite and Pro use separate namespaces, classes and text domains, and the plugin actively checks for already-registered widgets to avoid duplicate registration if both are active.
-
Does it work with WooCommerce, custom post types or portfolios?
-
The Post Slider widget queries standard WordPress posts. WooCommerce product sliders, team member sliders and portfolio sliders are part of Wexlab Advanced Slider Pro.
-
Is my data sent anywhere?
-
No. Lite performs no external requests, no tracking and no telemetry.
