General Slider

A slider that does not slow your site down.

A slider sounds like a simple feature, but it is one of the most common places a WordPress site picks up weight it does not need — jQuery dependencies, render-blocking CSS, and JavaScript that runs on every page even when there is no slider on it.

General Slider is built on Splide, a lightweight slider engine with no dependencies. There is no jQuery on the front end, and the CSS and JavaScript are only added to pages that actually contain a slider.

What it does

• Build a slider once, then drop it anywhere with a block, a shortcode, or an Elementor widget
• Works without a page builder — the block and shortcode work with any theme
• Pull slides automatically from your latest posts, pages, or WooCommerce products
• Design presets and navigation skins you can mix freely, plus per-slide background video and an accent colour
• Keyboard and screen-reader accessible by default
• Images lazy-load, and a slider only starts once it is scrolled into view

Advanced Testimonial

Customer reviews, added once and shown anywhere.

Most WordPress testimonial solutions force a trade-off. Basic plugins give you one static layout and no way to collect new reviews. All-in-one page-builder addon packs bury a testimonial widget inside dozens of others you will never use, adding weight to every page on the site.

Advanced Testimonial is built only for testimonials. Reviews get their own post type with Groups, and each review carries its own fields — rating, company, verified badge, video. It ships with Schema.org review markup, so Google can show star ratings next to your search result.

What it does

• Several display layouts — grid, list, card, carousel, marquee, masonry and spotlight
• A set of card styles you can mix, with a different style per block if you want
• A front-end form so visitors can submit their own review, with spam protection built in
• Submissions arrive as pending, so nothing goes live before you approve it
• Group testimonials so different pages can show different sets
• Video testimonials from YouTube, Vimeo or a self-hosted file, opened in a lightbox
• Your testimonials are never deleted on uninstall unless you explicitly opt in

Free Widgets For Elementor

The widgets Elementor's free core is missing.

If you have built more than a couple of sites with the free version of Elementor, you have hit this wall: you need a pricing table, or a flip box, or a simple countdown timer, and the free core does not have them. The usual fix is installing a giant addon pack that ships dozens of widgets when you need three.

This plugin adds only what the free core is actually missing — nothing you already have, nothing you will not use. Each widget's CSS and JavaScript load only on the pages where that widget is used.

What is inside

• Pricing Table — header, price, feature list, button, optional featured highlight
• Flip Box — a 3D hover or click flip to a back face with a call to action
• Team — photo, role, bio and social links for team member cards
• Call To Action — title, text, button and background in a styled box
• Countdown Timer — counts down to a date and time, with an optional expired message
• Post Grid — a responsive grid of posts with image, title, meta, excerpt and read-more
• Logo Carousel — a responsive logo carousel with arrows, dots and autoplay
• Table of Contents — an auto-generated page outline with smooth scroll and scrollspy

Elementor Pro is not required, and there is no locked feature anywhere in it. A built-in demo library lets you import ready-made sections in one click.

Janitorix Media Audit In review

Proves an image is unused before it suggests deleting it.

Every WordPress media library fills up with images nobody uses any more — old banners, replaced logos, test uploads. Most cleanup plugins scan the uploads folder, flag whatever looks unused, and hand you a delete button.

The trouble is that the cost of being wrong is not symmetric. Leaving an unused image costs a few kilobytes. Deleting one that is still referenced somewhere — a Customizer background, an ACF field, a page-builder section — breaks your site, and you might not notice for weeks.

How it is different

Janitorix Media Audit never blends "is this used?" into a single guess. Every image gets two separate judgements:

• Confidence — how sure the plugin is that the image is genuinely unused, based on scanners covering post content, Gutenberg blocks and synced patterns, full-site-editing templates, the Customizer, theme options, widgets, menus, Elementor, ACF, WooCommerce, and the theme's own PHP, CSS and JavaScript files.
• Risk — how much damage deleting it would cause if the plugin is wrong.

A site logo nobody explicitly references and a stray test upload can score identically on confidence, but they need opposite treatment. That is why risk is scored on its own.

What it refuses to do

• Will not recommend deleting anything if scan coverage was too low — it asks for a rescan instead
• Will not offer Trash for anything at medium risk or above, however confident the scan is
• Will never touch a site's logo, icon or header — those are refused outright, not just scored low
• Will not touch an image uploaded in the last 24 hours
• Never deletes in one step — Trash first, always

The plugin is finished and is waiting for the WordPress.org review team. Until it clears, you can install it from GitHub.
