<li><code>showTitle</code> — Show the post title. Accepts <code>true</code> or <code>false</code>. Default: <code>true</code></li>
<li><code>showImage</code> — Show the featured image or a placeholder. Accepts <code>true</code> or <code>false</code>. Default: <code>true</code></li>
<li><code>showDate</code> — Display the post publication date. Accepts <code>true</code> or <code>false</code>. Default: <code>true</code></li>

</ul>
Example: 
 <code>[blast_slider numberOfPosts="8" slidesPerView="2" autoplay="true" autoplaySpeed="5000" loop="true" theme="dark"]</code>
In PHP templates: 
 <code>php 
echo do_shortcode('[blast_slider numberOfPosts="4" showTitle="false"]');</code>
Notes: 
– If the number of posts is not divisible by <code>slidesPerGroup</code> and <code>loop</code> is enabled, the slider will be filled with empty slides to maintain smooth looping. 
– When no posts are found, a fallback message is shown. 
– If no featured image is set, a default placeholder image is displayed.
