Portfolio slider editorial

An editorial portfolio section with four broad image-led project cards and compact caption and project metadata beneath each image. Needs the companion plugin, which comes with your access; without it the masthead is followed by the four projects as a plain stack, and without motion they remain a horizontally scrollable native row.

States no colour and no font of its own.

What you change first

  1. Replace all four images and their alt text from the Media Library.
  2. Change the project titles, discipline, client and year in each named Slide group.
  3. Preserve the short caption shape; long case-study summaries belong on the linked project page.
  4. Change the h2 level to fit its page. AI tools can safely reorder or rewrite Slides because the block uses ordinary WordPress groups, images, columns and text.

The signature moment

An oversized project image leads a horizontal sequence of compact editorial captions

Each project is encountered as an image first, then resolved by a deliberately smaller title and two-line metadata note. Alternating image crops create a broad/narrow editorial rhythm without changing the track itself.

Theme handoff

What comes from where

From your theme

Typeface and palette. The section uses the guaranteed base and contrast chains, and every heading remains on the theme's size ladder.

Set by this pattern

Four projects at 72% width with a generous gap. The alternating 16:9, 4:3, 3:2 and 16:9 crops make the images change pace while the captions retain one 65/35 structure.

Why this is not testimonial slider proof or feature slider walkthrough

The testimonial pattern makes words and a metric collide inside equal cards; the walkthrough is one linear explanation where every stage splits image and copy and the numbers set the order. This sequence is image-led, gives each project a different crop, and keeps the caption quiet enough to behave like a magazine folio.

Theme behaviourInheritance, fixed decisions and contrast

What it inherits from your theme

Typeface and palette. The section uses the guaranteed base and contrast chains, and every heading remains on the theme's size ladder.

Technical notesBlock mechanics, responsive behaviour and constraints

What needs the plugin

The plugin adds the horizontal row, arrows, counter and keyboard navigation. Without the plugin, the four native Groups form a plain stack; with reduced motion, they remain in the touch-friendly horizontal row without smooth transitions. There is no autoplay and no content is hidden.

What is not proved

The projects and client names are illustrative.

The markup

6.9KB of core-block markup, 7 blocks (column, columns, group, heading, image, paragraph, patternpaste/content-slider), and nothing else: paste it into the block editor and it becomes editable blocks wearing your theme.
