800,000+ WordPress sites are already using MetaSlider!

Full Screen Slideshows with MetaSlider

You can use MetaSlider to build a slideshow that uses the full height and width of the screen.

In the image below, you can see that the slideshow has all the normal features such as Previous and Next arrows, navigation, and more. However, the slideshow is the only thing visible on the screen.

Follow this guide, and we’ll show how to build a full-screen slideshow like this for your site.

Full-screen slideshow in MetaSlider

First, create a slideshow using MetaSlider. In this example, we’ll use an image slideshow.

Second, add your slideshow to a post or page. You can use any method you want, from a Gutenberg block to a shortcode. In this example below, I’ve added the shortcode inside a WordPress post:

The final step is the CSS. Add the code below to your site. You can use any of these techniques to add the CSS. The only thing you will need to change is the number “306”. Update that number in the code below to match the ID of your slideshow.

Please note that this code is designed for each image or video to take the full width of the screen. You may need to make an adjustment to the CSS below if you’re showing multiple images on the screen at one time in a carousel effect. The CSS may also need changes if your slideshow’s navigation takes up a portion of the theme, such as thumbnails or filmstrip.
