Updater beware. 1.0.15 totally broke my slider layout. They just all load vertically on top of each other now. Trying to diagnose/revert, but worth knowing in case it happens to you also. Update: Excellent customer service. Plugin has been fixed. Thank you.

Basic Gutenberg block that lets you manually assemble other Gutenberg blocks into a slider. There is a minor technical issue. I only see one of the two next/prev arrows, and that arrow overflows the page width by default when no padding or margin is applied to the slider. The plugin is limited in scope to only allow creating slides manually. That mirrors the scope of the built-in suite of Gutenberg blocks nicely, but one dynamic feature I think would be appropriate is to load a configurable number of blog posts dynamically, optionally with filters applied. The plugin author has been very quick to update the plugin, so this review may be outdated by the time you read it.

It is missing several basic Slick settings, though, like fade, centerMode, adaptiveHeight, variableWidth…

Carousel Slider Block for Gutenberg is the best slider block—ability to include any other blocks and configurability is excellent!

Went back to this simple gallery carousel after Modula wouldn’t show carousel after latest updates with theme. I keep having to find new carousels as various updates clash. This was fine. Even if it looks odd (thee clash I think) in my edit area it works on display screen page fine.
