Slider vs Carousel and Pagination vs Portal

Post by Krx »

Hello


1. Can you explain is there any other than visual difference between Slider and Carousel?

Which one is newer and more responsive and has more features?
Does both feature tag filtering?
As I can see both are very similar.

2. Does Portal module have pagination, like what's in demo images?
Which one is newer and more responsive and has more features?
Does both feature tag filtering?
Does Portal also feature pagination?
If yes, does pagination also changes item with big image (TOP item)?
As I can see, both are very similar except that
- Portal layout has one additional image (Top item?)

Btw, you could really have shown us real demo of your products instead of just images ;)

Thanks,
Regards

1. Slider vs Carousel

Slider layout uses another, more modern jQuery library. Accordingly, it will be more flexible and has more features than the Carousel layout.


2. Portal vs Pagination

Both this layouts uses the same jQuery library for pagination. The main difference is that in Portal layout has the display of TOP items, in Pagination layout you can display only normal items. But it is also important to note that for both layouts pagination works only for normal items.
Does both feature tag filtering?
Yes, you can use filter by tags, because this is a feature of the module. And it does not depend on what module layout you will use to display the results of the module work.

Hello

In previous post you said that this:

Based on your statement that slider has more options I've just purchased and installed slider layout.

But I cannot see where to enable autoplay?
I see now that in carousel description it mentions autoplay, but in slider it doesn't mention autoplay.
So does slider feature autoplay or not?

Please clarify.
Thanks
