Comparing and Displaying Sliders with Kadence Free Themes

Slider Comparisons

Flex Slider

This slider is an easy to use yer sharp and efficient slider. It allows for captions, descriptions and slide links. This slider works best with all images having the same ratio and all images are usually the same pixel size.

Carousel Slider

This slider is similar to the flex slider in that it is simple and efficient. The difference is that the carousel slider allows for different size image ratios, allowing you to show both portrait and landscape images.
