Hero images on websites are great, but having the same one appear all the time gets... really boring. And using a slideshow on a page can add too much bloat to your code, slowing things down way too much.<\/p>\n\n

Here's a plugin that rotates multiple hero images automatically - with no code bloat. Images can change hourly if you like or set it to daily (24 hours) - or whatever you want.<\/p>\n\n

This is a plugin made by a website design company. We use this plugin on our clients' sites all the time. Now you can, too.<\/p>\n\n

Display a hero banner on a page using a background image, title, description, and action button.<\/p>\n\n

Add a hero image to your website's home page or inside page of your website that automatically changes after a set amount of time. Using this plugin, the image will change, but no extra code is necessary on the front side.<\/p>\n\n

You can also create a hero image on category pages. Change any of them on an hourly basis.<\/p>\n\n

[wsx_hero_image catid=\"1\"]\n<\/code><\/pre>\n\n
If you want to add this functionality to your template\/PHP file, use the following code:<\/p>\n\n
