You can add css to your sliders, then smart slider will somehow reset. Now, all the css you added is still there, but the text\/names and all that are not, meaning the css is stuck to what you get it to and then you can\u2019t change it.2. Height -&gt; Using a vertical carousel, why is it so hard to get smart slider to follow the height I set? It seems the slider height has to be pixel perfect, otherwise the slides will clip off. I have to pay attention to slide height, slider height, and distance between slides. I had to go pixel by pixel to figure out the perfect height which will 1. not entirely remove a slider from the section and 2. not cut off the top of the slider. Even then, I still couldn\u2019t get it to work perfectly, I had to have the top of my slider cut off by a couple pixels to avoid having a whole slider section left out.3. Viewport zoom -&gt; If you zoom out past 100% (110% zoom etc), the sliders glitch out. The first slider in my vertical carousel becomes a blank space. If you zoom back to 100%, it\u2019s fixed\u2026 but why is my zoom level affecting sliders? There is no way to fix this, meaning everyone who comes to my site with a lower zoom level will see a broken slider.4. Carousel drag \u2013&gt; If you try and drag the carousel, it does not spin and keep spinning until it slows down and stops. It stops on the first slider it can stop on. Does not feel good for people trying to view and skim through the sliders.I have many more issues with smart slider, but these are the main ones. I feel ripped off that I payed for Pro. To me, this slider is not very smart.<\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<\/article>\n<article class=\"plugin-review\">\n<div class=\"review-avatar\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<img decoding=\"async\" alt=\"\" src=\"https:\/\/secure.gravatar.com\/avatar\/eef0c042f06a1de1cfc4919afda3be67c62ce8bc1976a1abb98484630adfd408?s=60&amp;d=retro&amp;r=g\" srcset=\"https:\/\/secure.gravatar.com\/avatar\/eef0c042f06a1de1cfc4919afda3be67c62ce8bc1976a1abb98484630adfd408?s=120&amp;d=retro&amp;r=g 2x\" class=\"avatar avatar-60 photo\" height=\"60\" width=\"60\">\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n<div class=\"review\">\n<header>\n<div class=\"header-top\">\n<div class=\"wporg-ratings\" aria-label=\"5 out of 5 stars\" data-title-template=\"%s out of 5 stars\" data-rating=\"5\" style=\"color:#ffb900;\"><span class=\"dashicons dashicons-star-filled\"><\/span><span class=\"dashicons dashicons-star-filled\"><\/span><span class=\"dashicons dashicons-star-filled\"><\/span><span class=\"dashicons dashicons-star-filled\"><\/span><span class=\"dashicons dashicons-star-filled\"><\/span><\/div>\n<h3 class=\"review-title\"><a target=\"_blank\" class=\"url\" href=\"https:\/\/wordpress.org\/support\/topic\/excellent-13743\/\" rel=\"noopener\">Excellent!<\/a><\/h3>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<div class=\"header-bottom\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<span class=\"review-author author vcard\"><a target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/profiles.wordpress.org\/afyonluoglu\/\" title=\"Posts by afyonluoglu\" rel=\"author noopener\">afyonluoglu<\/a><\/span><br \/>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<span class=\"review-date\">January 5, 2025<\/span>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n<\/header>\n<div class=\"review-content\">I\u2019m using Smart Slider Pro for years (nearly 7+ years) and it is the best.
