Control the Slide Interval (Autoplay Speed)

The slide interval is how long, in milliseconds, each slide stays on screen before the next one appears. 5000 ms (five seconds) is the default.

Set the global default

  1. Go to NEO Bootstrap Carousel > Settings > Design.
  2. Enter a value in Slide Interval (ms). Leave it empty to use 5000.
  3. Save.

Which value wins

The pluginPluginA package of code that adds features to a WordPress site without altering core files. checks four places in order:

  1. The shortcode interval attribute, if present.
  2. The per-carousel Slide Interval, if set.
  3. The global Design default, if set.
  4. 5000 ms as the final fallback.

Stop auto-sliding

Set the interval to 0 (in the shortcode or per carousel) to turn auto-sliding off, leaving visitors to move through slides with the arrows and dots.
