23 Enable Slick media module under "Slick" package:
24 /admin/modules#edit-modules-slick
27 - Enable this module and its dependencies mentioned above.

32 - Under "Format", choose "Slick media" for Media entity reference field, and

73 within slide captions, also supported:
75 stage-right|Caption left, stage right
76 stage-left|Caption right, stage left
82 If you choose skin Split, additional layout options supported:
84 split-right|Caption left, stage right, split half
85 split-left|Caption right, stage left, split half
