Swiper slider is okay on chrome but in the internet explorer, it is not working how I fix this anyone has a solution of this? if yes please share it Thanks

Solution 1

I do some research on Swiper slider and I got that swiper didn't work for Internet Explorer but the only version 2.xx version that works for an older browser, I tried but it didn't work for me. After done a little more research on sliders then I got a Slick slider that works the same as swiper. It also works for Internet Explorer and other browsers. I do some sud of code as I did before in the swiper

$('.slider').slick({
  slidesToShow: 5,
  slidesToScroll: 1,
  speed: 500,
  dots: true,
  arrows: false,
  centerMode: false,
  focusOnSelect: false,
  autoplay: true,
  autoplaySpeed: 2000,
  slide: 'div',
  responsive: [
      {
      breakpoint: 900,
      settings: {
          slidesToShow: 4,
          slidesToScroll: 1,
      }
      },
      {
      breakpoint: 425,
      settings: {
          slidesToShow: 3,
          slidesToScroll: 1
      }
      },
      {
      breakpoint: 375,
      settings: {
          slidesToShow: 2,
          slidesToScroll: 1
      }
      }
      // You can unslick at a given breakpoint now by adding:
      // settings: "unslick"
      // instead of a settings object
  ]
});

with this HTML

<div class="slider">
<div class="item"><img src="images/logo1.png" alt="Logo"></div>
<div class="item"><img src="images/logo2.png" alt="Logo"></div>
<div class="item"><img src="images/logo3.png" alt="Logo"></div>
<div class="item"><img src="images/logo4.png" alt="Logo"></div>
<div class="item"><img src="images/logo5.png" alt="Logo"></div>
</div>

I also linked the cdn files for more information please visit the official slick site here

Solution 2

I tested the official demo in IE 11 and it can't work. I found that Swiper has dropped IE 11 support since v5. You could check this commit and this thread. Now the latest version is v6.0.4 so it can't work in IE 11.

If you want to use Swiper on IE 11, I think you can use v4.x which is the latest version that supports IE. For more information, you could refer to this thread.

Thanks for your answer! but I got the solution I tried v2.xx this is the version that works for IE but it didn't works, after a little research I got that I use alternative slider of swiper, which is a slick slider that works for IE.
