Estimated reading: 3 minutes 133 views

The Advanced Hero Slider Widget from RTM Elements allows you to create a striking, full-screen hero section for your Elementor website. With 8 unique styles to choose from, you can find the perfect look for any design, whether it’s a portfolio, an online store, or a creative agency website.

Each style comes with its own layout, animation, and settings, so the options you see in the panel will adjust to the style you choose.

  1. Installed and activated RTMKit on your WordPress website. (Go to Plugins → Add New Plugin, search for RTMKit, then click Install Now and Activate).
  2. Subscribed to Rometheme PRO and connected your account to RTMKit.

Step 2 — Add the Advanced Hero Slider Widget

  • Open the page with Elementor.
  • Find RTM Elements → Advanced Hero Slider.
  • Or search for Advanced Hero Slider in the Elementor widget panel.
  • Drag and drop the widget into your desired section or container.

Step 3 — Setting the Advanced Hero Slider Widget

  • In the Content tab, you will find several sections to set up your slider.
  • Layout: Choose one of 8 styles: Elegance, Portfolio, Dual Layer, Spotlight, Numbered, Fixed Project, Diverge Split, or Journey Cards.
  • Tip: Each style has its own look and set of options. Try a few styles to find the one that best fits your design.
  • Then set the slider height, the order of the subheading and button, and the button style. You can also add a second button next to the first one.
  • Slides: Add, duplicate, or remove your slides, and set the heading, text, image, and button for each one. You can also switch the source to Dynamic to build slides automatically from your posts.
  • Slider Settings: Controls how the slider plays, such as autoplay, transition speed, infinite loop, and text animation.
  • You can also choose how visitors move between slides, such as swiping, using keyboard arrows, or scrolling the mouse wheel.
  • Navigation: Shows or hides the arrows, pagination, and slide counter (for example 01 / 04), and sets where each one appears.

Step 4 — Custom Style the Advanced Hero Slider Widget

  • Go to the Style tab to customize the slider’s appearance to match your website’s design.
  • Container: Set the background, spacing, corner radius, and image overlay color and opacity.
  • Style-specific settings: Some styles have their own section here. For example, Journey Cards lets you adjust the position, size, gap, and labels of the cards on the side.
  • Content: Adjust the content alignment, width, and spacing between the subheading, heading, text, and button.
  • Subheading, Heading & Text: Set the colors, fonts, and text shadow of each text element. The subheading can also be displayed as plain text or inside a badge.
  • Button: Customize the button’s font, colors, border, padding, and shadow, with separate Normal and Hover styles.
  • Arrows, Pagination & Counter: Style the navigation elements, including their size, colors, borders, and spacing.

Step 5 — Publish the Template

  • Once your design is complete, click Publish to save your changes and make your Advanced Hero Slider live on your website.
