EventON Slider Addon

Description

The Slider addon transforms the standard EventON listing into a sliding event carousel, displaying cards with featured image, date, title, and summary in a component navigable by arrows or swipe. Designed for organizers who need to highlight the schedule on the homepage or internal pages, the module provides a dedicated shortcode to render the slider in any theme area, with filters by category, month, or individual event.

Main Features

• Navigable event slider
  Renders EventON events in a horizontal carousel with arrows and touch support.
• Dedicated shortcode
  Inserts the component on any page, post, or widget through configurable shortcode.
• Display filters
  Allows restricting the list by category, month, year, or specific event IDs.
• Cards with featured image
  Shows the event cover, formatted date, title, and shortened description on each slide.
• Appearance control
  Adjusts colors, number of items per screen, and transition speed directly in the shortcode attributes.

Benefits of the Slider Addon

• Visual schedule highlight
  Puts the schedule in the spotlight right on the homepage, increasing visitor engagement.
• Layout space savings
  Concentrates several events in a single scrollable block, without extending the page with lengthy lists.
• Smoother navigation
  Allows visitors to browse upcoming events without reloading the page or opening the calendar.
• Direct theme integration
  Works like any EventON shortcode, fitting into the visual builder or widgets.

Who Is It Recommended For?

• Event organizers who already use EventON and want to highlight the schedule on the homepage.
• Concert venues, churches, schools, and cultural centers with recurring programming.
• Agencies and developers who build websites with calendars and need a compact event showcase.

As a visual complement to EventON, Slider expands the options for presenting the schedule without requiring template customization; simply insert the shortcode in the desired area. It is recommended for websites where the schedule changes frequently and needs to stand out on pages that already have other content competing for visitor attention.
