    Hi,
    The slider block is available to add to courses, but not the front page or dashboard. Is there any way to add the slider block to the front page or dashboard?
    Thanks

    Hi ici,
    If You are using BX Slider JS You can add custom CSS in your theme settings:
    .block_slider .bx-wrapper img {
    margin: 0 auto;
    }
    And the picture should be centered.

    Hello, all... I've tried this block in moodle 3.5 and moodle 3.8 and I can't get the images to be displayed on the screen, only the navigation arrows, as well as the button to configure the slider and add other images. The main setup menu and image upload works fine, but then images are not displayed.
    I tried it both on the 'my' page and in a course.
    In addition to this block, do I have to configure or install something else?
    Thanks in advence for your time...

    Hello Manuel, try switching the version of `Slider JS Library` in block settings or switch to `BX Slider` and enable `Use CSS`.
    Slider JS library: BX Slider or SlideJS.

    Do You have any errors when entering console in Your browser?

    Thanks for tour response, Kamil... I'm afraid I'm doing something wrong because I don't see the menu for change Slider JS Library. I remember to see it when I installed the plugin in both sites, but now I don't see it. If I search fot it in admin/search.php, can't find it. In code, i see there is no a settings.php file. Sorry for this silly question, but... How can I access that menu?
