Repository metrics are context, not quality scores. Active installations measure adoption and can strongly reflect a plugin’s age and historical popularity. Ratings, recent updates and “Tested up to” metadata also do not guarantee modern code, error-free operation, security, feature completeness or suitability for a particular site.

Overview

About this plugin

Post Carousel by StellaCodex lets you select WordPress posts, arrange them visually, and display them with a shortcode.

Free features include unlimited carousels, manual post selection (search, add from a category, add by URL), drag-and-drop ordering, left/right arrow navigation, responsive card counts, and design controls (cards per view, border, corner radius, image ratio, card title and date).

Pro adds automatic sources (latest posts, a category, or a tag), autoplay (one-card and page-by-page) and continuous scrolling, auto-insert of a carousel at the end of post content (all posts or selected categories / tags), and carousel categories for organizing your carousels.

The free version is fully usable without a license and has no carousel-count limit.

External services

This plugin includes the Freemius SDK for optional usage analytics, Pro licensing, checkout, and Pro updates. Free users can skip the opt-in and continue using the plugin. No usage data is sent before an administrator explicitly opts in.

When a user purchases or activates Pro, the plugin communicates with Freemius to provide licensing, payments, and updates.
