How a Horizontal WordPress Theme Works

What is a “horizontal WordPress theme” after all? In Sider, all galleries that are assigned the “horizontal gallery” type will be shown with images aligned side-by-side, running from left to right across the page. Below, a minimalist navigational bar indicates the viewer’s current position in the gallery. Clicking the navigational arrows displayed on the left and right sides of the gallery allows the visitor to quickly jump to the previous or next image.

The same horizontal viewing experience is also available on mobile devices with a smaller viewport.

Gallery Layouts

Creating the horizontal slider gallery layout is super easy. Simply upload an image gallery to a WordPress Post or Page and assign it to the “Horizontal Gallery” type, as shown in the video below.

If the horizontal gallery layout isn’t enough for you, check out these other gallery layouts that you can use in Sider:
