Introduction
Turn selected Joomla articles into a polished multi-card carousel - with responsive pages, modern themes, and a native quick-view modal.
Content Pager 2.3 is a full rebuild for Joomla 4, Joomla 5, and Joomla 6. It replaces the legacy jQuery / bxSlider / Fancybox stack with a fast, accessible, vanilla-JS experience powered by the Web Asset Manager.
Whether you run a news site, agency portfolio, magazine homepage, or product case-study section, Content Pager shows several stories at once and lets visitors page through them without leaving the layout.
Why site owners choose it
- Multi-card browsing that feels current - show 3 / 2 / 1 cards by breakpoint instead of a single slide
- Themes that fit the brand - Modern, Editorial, Card, Minimal, and Dark with accent colour, radius, and gap
- Stay-on-page previews - native quick-view dialog, or send visitors straight to the article
- Motion when you want it - optional autoplay with pause on hover, modal open, and hidden tabs
- Controls that work everywhere - arrows, pager dots, keyboard, and touch swipe
- Smart content filters - categories, featured, tags, and exclude-current on article pages
- Future-ready stack - namespaced module services, no jQuery, built for Joomla 4 / 5 / 6 and PHP 8+
Built for real websites
Publishers need denser story grids. Agencies need portfolio strips that still feel editorial. Product teams need case-study browsers that invite exploration. Content Pager covers those layouts with one module and clean front-end code.
Use Modern for product-style cards, Editorial for warmer magazine titles, Card for softer elevated shells, Minimal for underline-style lists, and Dark for night-mode sections. Set desktop / tablet / mobile cards-per-view once and the strip adapts automatically.
