    Hello.. I’m seeing an issue with using the same image in two different sliders. When I change the caption in the second slider of the same image it automatically changes the caption in the first slider. Is there a way to allow different captions of the same image in different sliders?

    P.S. Rotation order also gets changed on first slider if using same image in second slider.

    Hi there,

    This is a known limitation of the current configuration in Meta Slider unfortunately as the slide information used in Meta Slider is associated with a single media file in WordPress.

    The good news is that we’re are planning to change this so that the slide is linked to a post instead meaning that you’ll be able to use the same media file in different contexts.

    The workaround in the meantime is to upload a duplicate image if you require a different caption etc in multiple slideshows.

    Thanks,
    Dave

    Did I read that this last update fixed this problem… or is it still to come?

    Still to come – the most recent update was preparatory for a range of changes related to the relationship between slides and media files.

    Stay tuned!

    Hello. Has this been updated yet? I still can’t get simultaneous images to show in a certain order on different pages.

    Hi,

    The images are now associates with a ‘slide’ post.

    What version of Meta Slider is currently installed?

    3.5.1. I’m using it only on Pages.

    Hi,

    Is this still with sliders that were created before the update?

    Please could you test creating two new sliders that share images? Does the issue persist on the new slides?
