Slick carousel - force slides to have the same height

Question

Im having trouble with the Slick carousel JS plugin with multiple slidesToShow which have different heights.

I need the Slides to have the same height, but with CSS flex-box it doesnt work as the slides have conflicting CSS definitions.

Also didn't find anything usefull in the forums and on the web.

If i get something working, i will post the solution here. Of course any suggestions are welcome.

HTML

<div class="slider">
  <div class="slide">
    <p>Lorem ipsum.</p>
  </div>
  <div class="slide">
    <p>Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet, consetetur sadipscing elitr, sed diam nonumy eirmod tempor invidunt ut labore et dolore magna aliquyam erat, sed diam voluptua</p>
  </div>
  <div class="slide">
    <p>At vero eos et accusam et justo duo dolores et ea rebum. Stet clita kasd gubergren, no sea takimata sanctus est Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet.</p>
  </div>
  <div class="slide">
    <p>Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet, consetetur sadipscing elitr.</p>
  </div>
</div>

JS

$('.slider')
.slick({
    autoplay: false,
    dots: false,
    infinite: false,
    arrows: false,
    slidesToShow: 2,
    slidesToScroll: 2,
    rows: 0
});

CSS

.slide {
  height: 100%;
  background-color: #ccc;
  padding: 10px;
}

Answer 1

Add a couple of CSS styles and it will be ready:

.slick-track
{
    display: flex !important;
}

.slick-slide
{
    height: inherit !important;
}

Enjoy! :-)
