[Resolved] How do I get the slider elements to increment by 1 image when I click next

This thread is resolved. Here is a description of the problem and solution.

Problem: I would like to change my slider View so that 3 elements appear at once, but the pagination system only advances 1 element at a time.

Solution: Unfortunately there is no built-in way to do this, since the pagination system is directly related to the number of posts shown per page. It would require custom code.

Tell us what you are trying to do?

I have setup a slideshow with six posts. I am showing three posts per page. However when I click the next button I would like the slideshow to show just the next post instead of loading the next page of 3 posts. That way users can increment through the posts 1 by 1.

Is there any documentation that you are following?

Is there a similar example that we can see?

Hi, Views Sliders are designed to paginate page by page (in this case, 3 posts per page). They are not designed to paginate by post, so there's no built-in way to accomplish exactly what you're looking for. It would require a significant amount of custom code. You might be able to implement a 3rd-party slideshow plugin that can achieve this effect, but unfortunately I don't have any recommendations for you.

Ok, thanks for all your help. Will look into submitting a feature request.

Is it possible for you to delete the image and the link to the site that I posted?

Thanks,

Yes of course, I have deleted the image and it should no longer appear on the post.
