πΌοΈ What is a Slideshow Widget?
A slideshow widget displays one image at a time that automatically changes after a few seconds. Unlike a gallery where all images are shown simultaneously in thumbnail format, a slideshow focuses on one image at a time with a smooth transition β perfect for creating a visual flow that tells a story or presents content in a more engaging way.
