A4p Slideshow Max 1 is our first native slideshow element based on the regular Slideshow element from YOOtheme Pro. In everyday agency work, we often need the ability to design individual slides differently. Until now, we usually solved this with custom HTML, but we thought: why not turn our regular workflow requirements into a dedicated extension?

What makes A4p Slideshow Max 1 different from the regular YOOtheme Pro Slideshow?
The original Slideshow element from YOOtheme Pro is already a powerful solution for modern sliders, hero sections, and presentations.
However, A4p Slideshow Max 1 extends this element with many additional features that are frequently required in real-world projects but are missing in the standard element.
Additional Features
Second Button / Link per Slide
Each slideshow item can contain a second independent button or link.
Features:
- Separate button style
- Independent size and width settings
- Independent modal support
- Custom spacing between both buttons using native UIkit margin classes
This makes layouts possible such as:
- Primary + secondary call-to-action
- “Learn More” + “Download”
- “Watch Video” + “Buy Now”
Modal Window Support
Links can optionally open inside a modal window.
Perfect for:
- YouTube or Vimeo videos
- Embedded content
- External websites
- Preview dialogs
The modal system was optimized so embedded media is completely unloaded when the modal is closed, preventing videos from continuing to play in the background.
Content Image Support
In addition to the regular slideshow background image, each slide can contain an additional content image.
This image system is functionally inspired by the native Panel element image handling in YOOtheme Pro.
Features:
- Image alignment
- Width and height settings
- Grid positioning
- Responsive behavior
- Border and box shadow support
- Lazy loading
- UIkit-based layout integration
This makes it possible to create layouts such as:
- Split-content hero sliders
- Product presentations
- Image/text combinations
- Editorial layouts
Additional Text Areas
The extension adds three additional optional text fields:
These fields can be styled globally and displayed independently.
Typical use cases:
- Eyebrows
- Additional information
- Subtitles
- Product details
- Image descriptions
Text3 can additionally be aligned individually per slide and can optionally appear directly below the content image.
Per-Slide Text Alignment
Unlike the native slideshow, each individual slide can override the global text alignment settings.
This allows different layouts within a single slideshow:
- Left-aligned slides
- Centered slides
- Right-aligned slides
Native YOOtheme Pro Experience
A4p Slideshow Max 1 was intentionally developed to stay visually and technically as close as possible to the original YOOtheme Pro Builder experience.
Advantages:
- Familiar Builder workflow
- Native field structure
- UIkit-based rendering
- Stable Builder preview
- No overloaded user interface
Security & Compatibility
The extension was developed with a strong focus on stability and security.
Included security measures:
- Sanitized editor output
- URL validation
- Secure modal handling
- Clean PHP namespaces
- Joomla and WordPress compatibility checks
- PHP lint validation before every release
Ideal For
A4p Slideshow Max 1 is ideal for:
- Agencies
- Landing pages
- Product presentations
- Corporate websites
- Marketing sliders
- Modern hero sections
- Interactive content layouts
If you already like the native YOOtheme Pro Slideshow but regularly miss additional content and layout flexibility, A4p Slideshow Max 1 closes exactly this gap.
