Slider

Sliders have fallen out of use on websites in recent years due to users not clicking through to see content. Vertical lists are being recommended for use instead. If a slider is used, we recommend limiting your slides to no more than 4 or 5.

This paragraph allows you to add content that will show in a slideshow with the ability to click through the content. Slider is available as a Wide (16:9) or Banner (3:1) format.

Instructions start on the Create or Edit page within a piece of content or custom block.
