These videos demonstrate the full capabilities of the plugin.
Premium Add-ons allow you to further extend the functionality of the slider:
- Custom CSS and JavaScript: Allows you to add custom CSS and JavaScript code to your sliders in a syntax highlighting code editor. It also features a revisions system that will backup all your code edits, allow you to compare between multiple revisions and restore a certain revision.
- Revisions: Automatically stores a record of each edit/update of your sliders, for comparison or backup purposes. Each slider will have its own list of revisions, allowing you to easily preview a revision, analyze its settings, compare it to other revisions or restore it.
