Hi HN, This week, for my WordPress project I was looking for the best content slider plugin solution. There're a lot of lists on the web, but none of them is really useful. So I thought that this mini-topic might be useful to someone, here is my independent list of (mostly) commercial WordPress sliders that I bought for testing: 1. Estro for WordPress - http://pixelentity.com/estro-jquery-ken-burns-slider-wordpress-plugin/ + Has great Ken Burns effect + Fast on mobile, because of CSS3 transitions and canvas drawing, but works slow in old browsers + Thumbnails option - Can't display content from WordPress posts - Useful only when you need Ken Burns effect 2. SlideDeck for WordPress - http://www.slidedeck.com/wordpress/ + Can show content from WordPress post and RSS feeds + Can display slider inside slider + Has a free version + Thumbnails option + Great support, I had small issue and guys fixed my issue in a 3 hours. - Too overloaded with features, works sluggish on my phone - Works sluggish on mobile 3. TouchCarousel for WordPress http://dimsemenov.com/plugins/touchcarousel-wp/ + Very cool touch swiping navigation and fast CSS3 transitions, works fast even on my old BlackBerry phone + Templating system to create custom layout in admin + Can display multiple images per view, which allows to create carousel and mail slider for site with same script + Slides any post type and taxonomies from it - Has no option to create slides with manually (only from WordPress posts) - Has no free version 4. Smooth Slider for WordPress http://www.clickonf5.org/smooth-slider/ + The only one free slider, that works relatively fine and can display posts. - Doesn't work on Android, works sluggish on iOS 5. RoyalSlider for WordPress http://dimsemenov.com/plugins/royal-slider-wp/ + Touch navigation, CSS3 transitions, responsive layout + Option to add animated captions with built-in wysiwig editor + Can be displayed as gallery with thumbnails, or as simple slider - As Estro, doesn't have an option to slide content from WordPress - Has no free version - Scales only images and slider wrapper, text content inside doesn't scale Please share your thoughts too.
