Each slide can include a title, description and can be linked to any Joomla article, menu item, or other URL or even do not linked (the magnificent popup appears ).

The Joomla slideshow extension also allows setting a start/end publishing date. Created slides can be organized in an unlimited number of slideshow categories and each category can have an unlimited number of slides.

What's more?

The Joomla slideshow comes with a huge number of useful slider features. Check more of them listed below:

We need to add that DJ Image Slider is an accessible slideshow component and it follows the latest Web Content Accessibility Guidelines (WCAG). It comes with compatibility with keyboard access (arrows and tab+ spacebar/enter key navigation). The accessibility is a very important issue when it comes to using the slider by people with different disabilities and older people, or those living in developing countries. Accessible slideshow is essential for many website visitors using keyboard navigation. Also, the people who are distracted by movement can pause a slideshow or if they need more time to read something, they can pause a slide, and find a while to understand the displayed content. You can enable or disable support for keyboard navigation with tab key and arrow keys!

The free slider extension offers many language translations of the slider (read below for more info)!
