Description
This plugin is under development, and we apologize for the lack of updates. The development is ongoing, and we are planning to release it in May 2025! 🚀 Stay tuned!
WP Posts Carousel allows to view the list of selected post types in a carousel. The plugin offers rich parameters of carousel display and post information, and provides better support for mobile devices. The plugin is equipped with a code generator (allows to insert the carousel into content) and a dedicated widget.
This plugin uses OWL Carousel in new version 2.0.0-beta.2.4.
This plugin may require some others plugins or libraries:
- Font Awesome – this library is included but you can disable it on the plugin’s settings page
- WordPress Popular Posts – this plugin is required only if you want to display popular posts in the carousel
Now available in the following Languages
- English (en_EN)
- Polish (pl_PL)
If you need other translation or you would like to create some, please visit crowdin.com project page.
For more information, check out PLUGIN HOMEPAGE.
I will be grateful for opinions and reviews.

FAQ
If you’ve got any questions, don’t hesitate to ask.

- If you’re using widget, you must update its options.

How can I add custom theme?
-
- Now, you can add your custom stylesheet in your’s theme directory.

Best Post / Custom Post carousel. Great that it has some filters for the developers out there too. Good support, the author will try to help you with any issues you are having.

Using a modified version of the Dazzling theme, this plugin was very flexible and customizable for look and feel. The author was extremely fast and helpful in guiding me through applying a filter to the carousel.

Finally, a great plugin that uses owl carousel v2! 😀
I have a small suggestion: You can add a parameter for RTL languages, as owl carousel v2 has RTL support.
& thank you so much for this great plugin.
