Your question should be specific to WordPress. Generic PHP/JS/SQL/HTML/CSS questions might be better asked at Stack Overflow or another appropriate Stack Exchange network site. Third-party plugins and themes are off-topic for this site; they are better asked about at their developers' support routes.

Improve this questionThe vertical sliders I've tried behave inconsistently — sometimes user has to scroll twice to move to the next slide, other times even a slight scroll jumps to the next one. This makes for a poor user experience. I want smooth, consistent scrolling: the next slide should come into view naturally based on how much the user scrolls (like normal page scroll).
i am open to any guidance from you. i am ready to change the plugin altogether if you have something in mind. i am even ready to use custom code, but with a lot of help - because its not my expertise currently.
What I’ve tried:
(a) Smart Slider 3 plugin (b) Vertical Scroll widget from Premium Addons for Elementor plugin - both these plugins dont provide the functionality. they just bring in the next slide instantly. (c) I’m not considering custom coding from scratch. it seemed too much time consuming. (d) I’m not considering Slider Revolution due to its large size and performance issues.
What I don’t want:
Snap-to-section scroll like this: Premium Addons Demo /
my current sliders: /
What I do want (reference examples): I want my slider to behave like these sites.
