is an innovative add-on for Concrete CMS that allows for the easy integration of a block using SwiperJS - a powerful, modern library for creating swipeable carousels.
Adding slides is based on the "Image Slider" block.
If you don't know how to add slides, here are the instructions.
To ensure that Zen Swiper displays correctly when using the 'vertical' direction setting, you need to set a fixed height instead of using a percentage-based height.
You can also set a fixed height for the surrounding div element that contains Zen Swiper, either in pixels (e.g., 'px') or as a percentage of the viewport height (e.g., '100vh').
Sample settings:
Change "slider size" to 'custom.' Set 'height' to 'fixed.' Change 'Height value' to appropriate value.
- set the number of slides ("Slides per view")
- add value to "Space between" (px)
- check "Pagination"
a) check "Clickable
Slides per view auto:
- slidesPerView: "auto"
- spaceBetween: 30
- check "Pagination"
- check "Clickable"
Centered:
"Centered Slides" works when there is more than one slide in the view.

When using the 'fade' transition effect, please note that you can have only one slide per view and one slide per group. The settings 'centered slides,' 'Space between slides,' and 'Slide to clicked slide' are not available for this transition.
Sample settings:
- space between
- effect: "fade"
- check "Navigation"
- check "Pagination"
- clickable (true)
When using the 'cube' transition effect, please note that you can have only one slide per view and one slide per group. The settings 'centered slides,' 'Space between slides,' and 'Slide to clicked slide' are not available for this transition.
In the case of the cube effect, images are attached to the sides of the cube starting from the top-left corner. To ensure that the cube's sides are fully covered by the images, the images should be equal to or larger than the cube's sides. It's also a good practice to make sure that the images are of the same size for consistency.
You can achieve this effect using custom CSS as follows:
.swiper-slide {
background-position: center;
background-size: cover;
}
.swiper-slide img {
display: block;
width: 100%;
}
Simply add this CSS code to your project to make the cube effect work seamlessly with properly sized and centered images on each side of the cube.
Sample settings:
- effect ("Cube")
- grab cursor (true)

a) shadow (true)
b) slide shadows (true)
