Product Slider module is a good solution to arrange and present products on your Magento store. The module allows creating several types of sliders which can display either specific custom products or special Magento product types including New products, Category products, Discount products etc.

There are no limits or bounds on the number of sliders you can create. All products are supported which makes it possible to create several sliders of various types even on a single page and arrange them in the most convenient way to fit your page.

Moreover, each slider can show as many products as you want, so you will not have any problems with arranging your page space.

To fit all possible needs of our customers we tried to supply the module with a set of advanced settings, which let you configure not only the number of products per slide and their sorting direction, but even control image dimensions to adjust sliders to your frontend style and design.

How to Use

After you created and enabled sliders they will appear on the store frontend on the locations you specified:

Slider view, location and operation will be performed in accordance with the settings you applied in the module configuration section.

How to Configure

To enable and configure the module log into your Magento admin panel and go to System -> Configuration -> Product Slider.

The module has a wide set of options to configure, so, let’s have a look at each of them to see how it works.
