Dear boy,

Just over 1 year and 2 months, today, we presented WooSlider to the world. Bundled with out of the box slideshows for your commonly displayed content (posts and attached images) as well as custom slides, the possibilities with WooSlider know no limits.

We're very proud to say that we recently launched WooSlider version 2.0, available to all existing (and new) WooSlider users.

Now a few years older, WooSlider includes a few key new features, to provide additional slideshow possibilities, as well as to respond to certain features heavily requested by you all, our WooThemes community. Notably optimised slideshow loading, carousel slideshows, thumbnail carousels and intelligent video controls in slides have taken WooSlider to the next level.

Grab WooSlider with a $15 discount coupon, valid until 19th September, 2013. Just use WOOSLIDER2 as your coupon code on checkout.

Instagram for WooSlider

Along with WooSlider 2.0, we're proud to offer a new WooSlider extension- WooSlider Instagram. Display your images and videos from your Instagram account, in a powerful WooSlider-powered slideshow.

WooSlider Instagram is available on WooThemes.com, FREE for a limited time. Grab your copy of the extension, today!
