### 󠀁[Best slider plugin, great block editor integration, great support.](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/best-slider-plugin-great-block-editor-integration-great-support/)󠁿

 [LightCatcher](https://profiles.wordpress.org/pdesopo/) Июнь 12, 2025

This is by far the best slider plugin I tried. I have used others in the past, but
at some point, I hit the wall. I needed something with a good block editor integration,
that could create full-page sliders, and that would be easy to tweak. Super Block
Slider checked all the boxes. The support is another plus for this plugin. Shoutout
to the developer mikemmx for the great job.

 [stef1964](https://profiles.wordpress.org/stef1964/) Июнь 8, 2025

I am sooo happy with this slider! I searched and tried for a long time, but most
plugins are way too bloated!! Yes, there are slim sliders, but they hardly have 
any setting options. Super block slider has everything you need (fade, slide, all
important time settings), is intuitive to use and lightweight. 5 stars!

### 󠀁[Perfect slider](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/perfect-slider-14/)󠁿

 [golanpxfactor](https://profiles.wordpress.org/golanpxfactor/) Январь 27, 2025

I've tested quite a few slider plugins and this one fits my needs the best. Highlights:
1. Lets you edit the slider and add slides through the page you are editing, rather
than having to create a create a slider in a plugin settings page and then add to
your page2. Lets you do the above easily in a way that actually makes sense 3. Actively
developed, and the developer reacts quickly to support requests

### 󠀁[Very good!](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/very-good-7224/)󠁿

The plugin has no dependencies – aka bloat – and is written in vanilla JS – finally!–
and is only loaded on the pages where it is used. So it is sufficiently optimised–
which has become a rarity in itself. There are plenty of settings available and 
it looks really solid and efficient. If I had to point out one flaw, it would be
that it does not use an some established and tested small JS slider library, but
is custom developed. However, it seems to be small and efficient, and most importantly–
has no dependencies. The only thing I have not figured out is how to use the multi-
page slider and if it is even possible – for purposes such as a logo slider and 
the like.

 [Jan Lucas](https://profiles.wordpress.org/jb_walton/) Декабрь 13, 2023

I recently changes all my website to a block theme.All went very well, but a good
image / content slider was missing.After searching i saw this Super Block Slider.
From the beginning I loved it, because it has ll features I was looking for and 
I has minimal impact on pagespeed.I has a very tiny javascript file, what has minimal
impact on pagespeed.After asking for passive listener implementation on the script
it took no more than half a day before it was implemented.Michael, i really appreciate
your work!
