Slider Display Options

This section decides how your slider looks and behaves so you can fine tune it to the layout of your store.  

  1. Slider Header - this the text above the responsive slider. It is a HTML input so you can style however you wish to match your theme. The default is '<h4>Product Articles</h4>' but if you wish it to say "Read more about this item" simply change to '<h4>Read more about this item</h4>'.
  2.  
  3. Article Content Length  - Set how many words of your articles you want to display. 
  5. Slider Items  - This allows you to set the maximum number of items in the slider.
  7. Slider Display - This the number of items in the slider to display at once. If your Items to Display is less then your Slider Size - then the sliders will scroll. If you choose more or the same it will be fixed unless the screen size is made smaller than the slider width.


Slider Tips

  • Use standard image sizes and shapes for your Articles. This will ensure they look great!
  • For horizontal sliders its recommended to have a maximum (10) Slider Size and a Display number of 3-5 depending on your site display width
  • For vertical/side bar sliders its recommended to display 1 item and reduce the Slider Size 3-4. This prevents bunching of the scroll dots and looks cleaner.
