Make slider loop infinitely instead of resetting

    Hi, I have a carousel on my website for showcasing members of my team. I have unticked “Loop carousel continuously” as I prefer to have the slider moving one image at a time and not continuously. This achieves the effect I’d like but the one thing I noticed is that when the carousel runs out of slides, it will move all the way back to the first slide. Is there a way to have it so that the carousel just flips through infinitely, making it look seamless?

    Hi @ipanis.

    Thanks for using MetaSlider. “Loop Carousel Continuously” does mean it will flip through the slides infinitely. It won’t be moving continuously.

    Oh – I’m not sure what I’m doing wrong then, because checking that box makes it go from flipping through the slides to moving continuously. Here is my site:

    [redacted]

    I have two different instances of MetaSlider on the page; one for the team and one for displaying company logos. The company carousel is currently set to loop continuously while the team carousel is not. Both demonstrate the same behavior where the slider runs out of images and resets.

    Ah, sorry – you’re right. We probably need to clarify the language there around “Continously”.

    If you want the slides to move one-by-one, then disable “Carousel Mode”.

    Sorry, I’m probably explaining it incorrectly. Basically I want to have a carousel that’s displayed on my page like this:

    Carousel has slides A-F, displays 5 images at a time

    A B C D E

    Then it moves like this:

    B C D E F

    C D E F A

    D E F A B

    Displays multiple images but moves one at a time in that aspect. Then when it reaches the last slide (F), the next slide is the first slide (A), instead of it doing a whole animation where it stops and resets back to A. The logo carousel on my page which moves continuously also exhibits this animation: no infinite loop on either carousel as far as I can tell – they both “reset” once they reach the end.

    Thanks @ipanis.

    That’s probably feasible with MetaSlider, but it would require a developer to write some custom code to extend the plugin.

    Ok, no problem. Was just wondering if there was a feature within the plugin I was missing. Thank you!
