Slides

Every slide is set up as a new block in the Hero slider section.

The slides have the following settings:

Colors

  • Text -- You can set up the color of the text

  • Overlay color -- With this setting, you have several options: * Set a solid color for the slide * Set an overlay color (by decreasing its opacity) * Set an overlay gradient and specify its position, opacity and so on.

Media

You can specify separate images for desktop and mobile. If the mobile image is missing, then the one from desktop will be shown on mobile devices.

Another option you have here is to upload a video file. You can either upload it in Shopify using the native video uploader, or paste an external link in the External video field.

This section is responsible for the content of the slide and its position.

  • Vertical content alignment -- You can choose between Top, Center or Bottom vertical position

  • Horizontal content alignment -- You can choose between Left, Center or Right vertical position

  • Heading and Subheading -- Specify the text showing on top of the image:

Buttons

You can add up to two buttons, one after the other. For every button you can specify its label, link and button style.

You can also overwrite the default hover style by selecting the Button hover style outline checkbox.
