Hello. Pre-purchase question: will you be adding arrow navigation soon? This plugin does exactly what I need but it’s missing that function that my client needs.
Hello,
I need to know if I can add background images for the WPBakery Background Sliders Addon using ACF fields instead of using the WPBakery add-on itself?
- I also cannot log-in to your support portal … I’ve tried signing up … doesn’t work.
Hello?
Sorry checking now, we were on leave because of Holiday.
You don’t need to login to create support ticket.
Sorry but its not possible at the moment as its WPBakery add on so you can only use with WPBakery.
Thanks
I know … I purchased it because it works with WPBakery … I am asking if it’s possible to choose the images to be used with it by using a form created with ACF (advanced custom fields)?
One way is you can use direct shortcode instead of addon, at then end WPBakery also generates shortcodes.
So below is shortcode with all its parameters which you can generate dynamically inside code.
Here is shortcode: https://codeshare.io/km1jdp
Inside sbvcbgslider_slider_attachments param you need to pass comma separated attachment ids.
Like
[SBVCBGSLIDER sbvcbgslider_slider_attachments=”1,2,3,7,8”]
Thanks.
Thank you, I will test with this
Correct, you need to use ID and not file name.
Where do I place the shortcode? Using the plugin, it places the slider div at the beginning of the container which of course functions as it should … using the shortcode in a text element doesn’t work. I can see it in the source functioning (going through background images), but it doesn’t work on the frontend visually. I also enabled the slider in the row settings, but didn’t select images with the add-on … then I placed the shortcode in a text element hoping that would work … it didn’t. * Thank you for you help on this by the way … really want to get it working with ACF selecting the images because I don’t want clients editing WPBakery layout files directly.
Lets try 1 thing, wrap it in a div and give that div position:relative if it works.
Trying that now, and I also used the widget element and ran the shortcode from a widget … didn’t work … but trying your idea now
That doesn’t work either … I think it would be some customized work for this
If you can get that functionality set up … your plugin would be an add-on for ACF, and WPBakery which should help with its popularity
Well this is first time I got such request, anyway I will check this.
Thanks
- I’d like to know how this works in the backend. What I typically do for hero headers (static) is I set the background image for a row in CSS, and then add in ACF fields for hero text with a CTA button at left, and then a CTA form at right.
- Am I able to maintain my typical workflow, and use your add-on to slide the background images?
- Or, does your add-on create an element that cannot have other elements on top?
- Meaning, when I use this add-on element, does it have fields to enter the text that goes above the background images … thus restricting me from adding in my own cutom ACF fields, and form at the right??
- This screenshot of your add-on https://s3.envato.com/files/135118816/screenshots/screenshot-5.png suggests I can continue doing things as I always have by adding in ACF elements
Ok so here how it works is it append or prepend to your wpbakery element based on your use case.
And its set with position in the background of element you chose and it doesnt affect your workflow or your content.
Yes you can do whatever you want in your content, what this does is just adds image slider in background of your chosen element.
Awesome, thank you! Purchasing shortly!
Ok Thanks, for any issue you can contact me at sbthemes@gmail.com
Sounds good, and thank you … buying this evening.
Beyond simple – thank you
Hi,
the plugin works as expected. Unfortunately a strange errors appears:
On bigger browser window sizes the buttons won’t work in the element that use background sliders. When the browser window is resized to a smaller size the buttons start to be clickable again.
How to fix that?
Send me your admin login details at sbtthemes@gmail.com so I can check.
Thanks
I figured out how to solve this: The problem occurs only when using the option “Vertical Center for Content”. When using the Padding instead, the buttons start working again. Maybe you want to look into this.
Sure, I will check it.
Thanks.
Hey there! Thnx for the great plugin!
We’re having an issue where the width of the container and image of the first slide is cut off on the right when you first load the slider. After the first slide, the rest of the images function as-expected.
Do you know what we can do to fix this issue?
Thnx!
It can happen because of your wpbakery is stretching full width with javascript so it takes slight time to adjust that width and by that time plugin already adopts original width/.
Send me your admin login details at sbthemes@gmail.com and I will setup for you.
Thanks
Thnx! I just send you an e-mail.
I replied in personal email. Thanks
Hi, My client has noticed a bug on this site on Windows (and to a lesser degree on macOS). When resizing the browser, the carousel images do not fill the screen, the next image is shown next to it, I have tried to foce the images to fill the screen with CSS (min-width: 100%!important) but it doesn’t seem to be working. Any ideas why this would be happening please? Thanks
A broken background is displayed under Windows 10 and all common browsers as Chrome, Firefox and Edge. I wrote to you several days ago. It seems that you cant fix it and the plugin is useless now?
Hey, sorry it was weekend, you will get reply today. I will check on windows and will give you solution today.
And in worst case if it doesn’t work then you will surely get refund.
Thanks
Hey, I just bought your background slider plugin and can’t make it work on the site I’m working on: borhaven.no/home-bis I’m wondering what is the issue. Could it be because of my wordpress version which is 5.7.1? Best Marie
No, it should work with all versions, send me your admin login details at sbthemes@gmail.com so I can check.

Hi, I have same problem as many other people.
I’ll just report one of the latest comments which suits exactly my issue:
“When loading the page, the first slide has a blank space to the right, and when it goes to second slide it gets fixed. I managed to work this around with some css
.vc_row[data-vc-full-width] .sb-bg-slider-params.sb-slider-data-source-row { width: 100vw!important; }
But is there a way to fix it in a more “natural” way?”
I guess you don’t need admin access, it happens to everybody so the problem is obviously not related to the website. Please reply here in the comments so everyone will know how to fix.
Thank you
Well there is no way, issue is wp bakery plugin manage width with javascript.
If you check their structure they page is always fixed width, they just stretch section with javascript and javascript applies after page loaded. So my plugin applies before that and it only shows image in fixed width area.
After that WP Bakery javascript stretch to full width and my plugin adapt new width. So best solution is simply apply that css which will overwrite as soon as WP Bakery apply JS which is almost immediate after page load. Like in milli seconds which user wont notice.
ok got it, thank you
I have a big issue here. Just purchased ; Transition are not smooth : next image pops up at almost full pocaity, then the script ramp up the opacity, and then next pic does the same, flashes at almost full opacity, then ramps up etc. It’s buggy. Pics aren’t even big / heavy. 1200×600.
- apply a display “none” on the top img until the opacity : 0 kicks in.
- wait for the top img opacity to settle at 1 and be fully opaque BEFORE deleting the img below it. For now it’s still shows behind.
OK. For anyone running into the same issue, the jquery.backstretch.min.js external ressource used by this plugin is faulty in the last package. I went ahead and downloaded the original last version at jquery-backstretch[dot com] and it works now.
Hi,
Thanks for detailed information. I will check this again. I never got complaint about this issue so must be something related to specific setup.
Anyway going to update all js version soon.
Thanks
Hello, I think I’m experiencing the same issue previously reported by other users with “Stretch rows” background sliders not applying correctly to my website. Specifically the background slider doesn’t properly stretch horizontally and overflows in the sections below, resulting in very large/pixellated images and bad layout (I really need the background to cover 100% of width). I’m using an up-to-date Wordpress with TheGem theme and of course WPBakery Page Builder. Thanks in advance for your help.

Yes, I already did that several days ago. Thanks.
Thanks I replied back.
Thanks a lot for the great support!
Hey there! We’re having an issue where the width of the container and image of the first slide is cut off on the right when you first load the slider. After the first slide, the rest of the images function as-expected.
You can see the behavior here – https://theautopaintdepot.eym9dauj-liquidwebsites.com/ – in the first section of the page.
We’ve tried removing and rearranging images but the issue persists. The first image is consistently ~200px narrower than the width of the page, correcting itself when the next image loads.
Could you please let us know how we might fix this issue?
Thank you! Woland Web
I dont find issue, can you send screenshot and login details at sbthemes@gmail.com

My site is running “Salient WPBakery Page Builder,” which is distributed with the Salient Theme. Will this plugin work with this variant of the WPBakery Visual Composer?
Hi,
Yes it works with all variants, one issue some times I faced with some variants is custom fields not working as I used number field to collect numerical data.
For this issue you can contact me at sbthemes@gmail.com and I will solve it on your WP site.
Thanks
Hi, i’m trying to have a divider overlapping the row bottom. The full page background works fine, but when i select the background slider row element in bakery, and place the divider in it, it always displays the divider as background, behind the background slider. Do you know of any solution to this? Kind regards
I dont understand, can you send me admin login details and page URL so I can try to see what you mean?

Hello,
I would like replace my background (one image fixe) by some pictures which would create a carousel. Above the background there will be bloc text with shortcode. So i don’t want just only a carousel, but the possibily to create a slider as background ! Your add on is it great to do that ?
Thanks so much
Just to inform, background slider means it will slide images in background and you can add any shortcode or content over it.
Means content will not slide, just background will slide, you can see in demo.
Thanks
