About JTC Slides
From the official readme · v1.4Description
I have seen this style of slideshow on many sites but have not found a plug in that does it so I made my own. It features a left navigation of title boxes that take up the height of the slideshow and a portion of the width (set by you). This slideshow is responsive, mobile friendly. It is also very light weight. The javascript file only loads on pages that have the short code. It is highly customizable. You can set colors, widths, heights etc. You can even add your own custom CSS to style the slide show. It also includes an auto play feature.
