Post Sliders Shortcode
Avada includes an awesome Flexsldier plugin that comes bundled with shortcodes. There are 3 different post sliders that can be used. Two of them work with your blog posts, and one is for image attachments. They are great for showcasing your blog posts and images on your website.
Post Slider With Titles
One of the layouts that goes perfectly with your blog is the Post Slider With Titles. It automatically pulls your posts and displays it beautifully. Choose which category you’d like to include and exclude, as well as the number of slides that will be displayed.
