HT Slider categories help you organize your sliders efficiently by grouping them based on specific categories. This is especially useful for managing multiple sliders on a website. For example, if a client’s website has three different sliders, you can assign each slider to a separate category, making it easier to manage and use them.
Step 1: Create a Slider Category #
- Go to your WordPress Dashboard > HT Slider Pro > Categories.
- Enter a category name (e.g., “Homepage Sliders”, “Product Sliders”, or “Event Sliders”).
- Click on Add New Category to create the category.
Step 2: Assign a Slider to a Category #
- Navigate to HT Slider Pro > All Sliders.
- Select the slider you want to assign to a category.
- Quick Edit the slider and find the Slider Categories option in the settings.
- Check the appropriate category from the menu.
- Update the changes.
Using Categories in Elementor Widgets #
When you use the HT: Advanced Slider or HT: Slider Elementor widget:
- Go to the Content Source option and set it to HT Slider.
- Under Post Options, you will see the following:
- Slider Show by Category or ID: Choose to display sliders based on their category or ID.
- Category Selection: Select your desired slider category from the available options.
- Slider Limit: Control the number of sliders to display by setting a limit.
