Usually a slider is a fading image. Maybe a title. With the business slider, you can get as fancy as you’d like–all right in the WordPress editor.
This is one of those, “Oh! I didn’t know it could do THAT!” features of WOO that I love to discover.
If you use the business slider as it is out of the box, you add a large image and maybe a title and an excerpt, hit publish and you have a nice slider (or fading slideshow) on a page. But you can combine those regular slides with another slide with a formatted page in it.
Usually to get some formatting into a slide of a slider, you’ll need to know some HTML or at least know how to copy some fancy code from somewhere else. But with the WOO Canvas Business Slider, you can just use the regular WordPress post editing screen and it will be right in there with your slides.
The big bonus with WOO is that you can also format that post with some of the WOO shortcodes to spice that slide up. See the video for more.
