Hi there,

Is there a way to prevent a slider from automatically advancing to the next page? I can set the "Show each page for" field to be an absurdly large number, but is there a way to completely disable it?

Thanks.

Saul

Hi Saul,

Thank you for getting in touch.

Can you provide a bit more information on how the slider was created perhaps even providing a screenshot ?

Thanks,
Shane

Shane,

Here's a screenshot. The default for sliders is to always advance to the next page after an interval of time. Maybe I could set that interval to 0 to prevent that behavior?

Hi Saul,

If you don't want the slider to auto advance you can simply select the Manual Pagination with AJAX, where the user will need to click the next pagination option in order to see the next page.

This should resolve your issue.

Thanks,
Shane

"Manual Pagination with AJAX" is exactly what I was looking for. Thank you, Shane!
