Banner Slider

The Banner Slider section in your theme offers a powerful way to showcase key content with customizable banners. Each banner is designed to be fully responsive and configurable, making it ideal for promotions, announcements, or storytelling.

Key Features

  1. Customizable Banners Merchants can add multiple banners to the slider, each with its own settings. Every banner block includes options for media, text, buttons, and layout configurations.

  2. Responsive Media Options

    1. Desktop Images: Upload high-resolution images for larger screens.

    2. Mobile Images or Videos: Optimize your banners for mobile by adding dedicated images or videos for smaller screens.

  3. Text and Button Configuration

    1. Add headings, subheadings, and buttons to your banners.

    2. Buttons can be linked to specific pages, collections, or products and styled to align with your theme.

  4. Content Positioning Merchants can choose where the content (text, buttons, etc.) is displayed on the banner. Position options include:

    1. Top

    2. Bottom

    3. Left

    4. Right

    5. Center

    6. Left-Center

    7. Right-Center

  5. Color Scheme and Styling Each banner block can have its own unique color scheme, allowing merchants to align the design with their brand or specific campaign.

  6. Video Integration For a dynamic experience, merchants can include videos in their banners. Videos can either replace or complement images, creating a more interactive experience.

  7. Slider Settings

    1. Navigation Options: Enable arrows or dot indicators for manual navigation.

    2. Overlay and Readability Merchants can add transparent overlays to improve the readability of text on top of images or videos.

Use Case Scenarios

  • Promotional Campaigns: Highlight ongoing sales or limited-time offers with visually striking banners.

  • Storytelling: Use text and media to convey your brand’s story in a compelling way.

  • Product Features: Showcase specific products with tailored banners that provide detailed information and a call-to-action.
