To start working with the FilmSlider module, go to the TemplateMonster > Sliders section.

Here you can see a list of available sliders where you can disable/enable, delete or edit sliders.

To add new slider click Add New Slider button in the top right corner.
On the slider configuration screen in the General Options section you will see all available slider settings. Slider Items section allows you to add slides to your slider.

Let's see what slider options are available. As you can see options are divided into several parts to make the configuration interface more user friendly.

General Options

Main Settings

This section allows you to set slider title, select store view, enable/disable slider, set its width and height.

Slider dimensions (width and height) can be set to a fixed value, like 900 (indicating 900 pixels), or to a percentage value, like 100%.
Please note: slide title, store view and status are required, you cannot save the slide without these values set.
Image Settings

In image section you can adjust slider image configuration settings. Each option has a brief description. Let's describe some of them more specifically.

The Aspect Ratio
Sets the aspect ratio of the slides. If set to a value different than -1, the height of the slides will be overridden in order to maintain the specified aspect ratio.
Image Scale Mode

Sets the scale mode of the main slide images [images added as background].

  1. cover — will scale and crop the image so that it fills the entire slide.
  2. contain — will keep the entire image visible inside the slide.
  3. exact — will match the size of the image to the size of the slide.
  4. none — will leave the image to its original size.
Force Size
Indicates if the size of the slider will be forced to full width or full window.
Note: It's possible to make the slider full width or full window by giving it a width and/or height of '100%'. However, sometimes the slider might be inside other containers which are less than full width/window. The 'forceSize' property is useful in those situations because it will still enlarge the slider to fill the width or window by overflowing its parent elements.
Slides Settings

Slides settings section allows configure slides behaviour. Here you can configure slides animation, visible slider size, slides shuffle and loop.

Fade Animation Settings
