Adding a slider to your Shopify store is a great way to showcase your products and increase conversion rates. Sliders are easy to add and can be customized to match your store’s theme. In this article, we’ll show you how to add a slider to your Shopify store and style it using HTML tags.

PRO TIP: Please be aware that adding a slider to your Shopify store may result in decreased page speed and decreased conversion rates. Additionally, please be sure to test your slider implementation before making it live on your site.

There are a few things you’ll need before you can add a slider to your Shopify store:

• A Shopify account: If you don’t have one already, you can sign up for a free trial at Shopify.com.

• An image for your slider: You can use an image from your product collection, or you can upload a new image.

• A text editor: You’ll need a text editor like Microsoft Word or TextEdit to edit the HTML code for your slider.

1. Log in to your Shopify admin and go to Online Store > Themes. 2. Find the theme you want to edit, and then click Actions > Edit code.

3. In the Layout folder, click on theme.liquid. 4. Find the section of code where you want your slider to appear, and then copy and paste the following code snippet into that section:

{% include ‘slider’ %}
5. Click Save, and then refresh your website to see your new slider in action!

To style your slider using HTML tags, follow these steps:
1. In the Assets folder, click on theme.scss. Find the section of code where you want to style your slider, and then add the following HTML tags around that section of code:

{% include ‘slider’ %}

{% include ‘slider’ %}
