    What slider is recommended? Both Genesis sliders are two years old and neither has been tested with current WP.

    Is there a newer slider that’s recommended?

    Why is this not documented in the sticky posts? Is it because it doesn’t matter which slider is used?

    Thanks,
    Jeff

    The slider in the demo is the Genesis Responsive Slider…

    “Why is this not documented”

    It actually is, it’s located in your Read Me file. It’s also located in the General tutorials page – https://appfinite.com/tutorials/

    “Is it because it doesn’t matter which slider is used?”

    No it does not matter which slider you use. You can use any slider you want, they only have that slider in the demo as an example. Which is great because I wouldn’t want a theme that puts limits on what I can and can’t use. I personally use a couple premium sliders from codecanyon when I want something complex….but if I just need something simple to show images then I use the Genesis Responsive Slider.

    The Genesis Responsive slider works perfectly fine with the latest WP (not sure what suggested it wasn’t tested). Just because it says it hasn’t been updated in a while doesn’t mean it won’t work. If plugins are created simple, and coded properly they won’t always need to be updated all the time if their done right the first time. Although if there are changes in WP that would require an update to the plugin, then StudioPress (the creators of that plugin) are usually quick to get it updated in time….they’re pretty good at doing that. So just give it a try, and if you don’t like it, then search the WordPress plugin area for another slider….you’ll have nothing to lose since it is free.
