A responsive slider for integrating into themes via a simple shortcode.
The Responsive Slider plugin allows you to create slides that consist of linked (to any url) images and titles. The slider would then take those slides and present them as a jQuery-powered slideshow – at a chosen location within your theme, page, or post. In whatever order you want them.

The main purpose of the Responsive Slider is to serve as an effective addition to responsive WordPress themes, as it would automatically adjust to its container. This would work out of the box – there is no need for additional CSS or JavaScript tweaks from your theme.
Please note, this plugin is only for use on Self-Hosted WordPress installations, not WordPress.com. See this Guide to the Best WordPress Hosting if you need any help choosing one.

No, not at all. You can use it with any theme.
Sure, you can easily override the slider CSS in your theme. The easiest approach is to use a tool like Firebug to find the snippet you need to override. Then copy it to your theme CSS file (usually style.css
) and edit it there, using a CSS selector with higher priority.
No, currently the plugin can maintain only one slider.
