Few weeks ago the free version of the Smart Slider 2 hit 10k downloads.It isn’t spectacular, obviously, but it’s a good result to reach in less than 22 days, in addition we hit a massive milestone with 1000 likes on our Facebook page. Hurray!

First milestone of Smart Slider 2

We’re working to make Smart Slider 2 better day by day and today finally we reached the first milestone. In this post I would like to share our ideas and the latest features as well as open a public place for the community to discuss the future of the slider. Let’s see the latest and greatest features:

Design and Redesign

With the latest version we’ve added a totally new management system for the sliders, the popup menu. I’m sure that we’re going to add a lot of new features in the future so we had to figure out a new way for the navigation. In the next weeks we would like to test it and hear your feedback from this navigation type.
