Before you begin building we recommend visiting the Global Settings option (which is a submenu item underneath Slider Revolution).

There are plenty of important options here for default responsive grid settings (which are applies when building new sliders), custom font loading URL, database creation for the plugin and more. But there are two options we recommend you tweak.

The first option your should consider editing is the Permission which you can use to restrict plugin access to admins only. This is an easy way to ensure you, your web designer or other admins are the only ones creating sliders on your site (especially useful if you have guest authors on your blog).

The second option you might want to edit is the Default Layout Grid Breakpoints option. These are the pixel widths according to device for your responsiveness settings.

This is also where you can enable custom fonts, 3rd party lazy loading and force database creation (if you you’re having Slider Revolution Table issues). Once done, make sure to save your settings.

Now you can start building your sliders! You have three options – begin from scratch, snag a free export file from the Slider Revolution “usage examples” or import sample sliders included with your theme.
