Hi, I've added a Slider Block feeded by an image custom field. I set it to display 3 images.

My problem is that, if I add only 1 or 2 images to the custom field, the slider repeat the first image 3 or 2 times to fill the empty spaces (see screenshots).

Is there a way to not disply sliding arrows and repeated images if the custom field has less then 4 images?

Cheers

Hello and thank you for contacting Toolset support.

Actually, that is not possible. If you think that it should be supported by the Slider block, please suggest it on this form https://toolset.com/home/contact-us/suggest-a-new-feature-for-toolset/

As a workaround, you can use a custom function, that should return the number of images in the custom field. And use it inside a condition to display different sliders based on the number of images. For example, if there is only one image, you can display just an Image block. If there are 2 images, you can display a slider with two columns. And if there are more, you can display the current slider with 3 columns.

Check the custom function on this similar thread https://toolset.com/forums/topic/slider-with-one-image/#post-1964083
Remember that the function needs to be registered in Toolset->Settings->Front-end Content.

I hope this helps. Let me know if you have any questions.
