Tell us what you are trying to do? I am not using WP Blocks. But I need a document and how-to guide, how to create a slider.

Is there any documentation that you are following?

Somehow, I only found a recently published document and video, but it's only for WP Blocks.

Is there a older version for use in views?

Is there a similar example that we can see?

What is the link to your site?

Hello,

The old document for classic editor was removed, but the workflow are same:
Create a post view using option "Display the results as a slider", see my screenshot old-slider.JPG.
Then customize above post view:
- Query posts of your custom post type
- Add next and previous links
- Display the images in view's loop

Dear Luo Yang

I don't see the screen shot...

But what I have done - hidden link - just need to add next/previous link.

Regards,

Simon

I have uploaded the my screenshot again.

For the next/previous link, you can add the pagination links, see my screenshot pagination.JPG

One thing need to pay attention to:
The Views slider in classic editor works only for posts, that means each slider is one post, it does not work for multiple instances image field.
