Adding an image slider to your Shopify store is a great way to showcase your products and make your store more visually appealing. There are a few different ways to add an image slider to Shopify, and in this article we’ll show you how to do it using the built-in Shopify slider element and the jQuery Slick Slider plugin.

The first thing you need to do is create a new page in your Shopify admin area and add the following code to it:

  • <img src="https://cdn.Shopify.com/s/files/1/0271/4967/products/product-image-1_1024x1024.jpg?v=1446677533" alt="">
  • <img src="https://cdn.com/s/files/1/0271/4967/products/product-image-2_1024x1024.com/s/files/1/0271/4967/products/product-image-3_1024x1024.jpg?v=1446677533" alt="">

Next, you need to add the following CSS code to your theme's stylesheet:

shopify-slider { 
width: 100%; overflow: hidden; 
}

.shopify-slider ul {
 margin: 0; padding: 0; list-style: none; 
}

.shopify-slider li {
 float: left; width: 100%; 
}

.shopify-slider img {
 width: 100%; height: auto; 
}
PRO TIP: Adding an image slider to your Shopify store can be a great way to showcase products, provide customer testimonials, or highlight featured content. However, before you add an image slider to your store, there are a few things you should keep in mind:

1. Make sure the image slider will fit within your store's overall design.

2. Choose images that are high quality and relevant to your store's products or services.

3. Test the image slider on multiple browsers and devices to ensure it loads properly and functions as intended.

4. Be aware that image sliders can slow down your website's loading time, so make sure to optimize the images beforehand.

5. Consider adding a call-to-action (CTA) button to each slide in the image slider, such as "Shop Now" or "Learn More." This will help encourage visitors to take action on your site.

And finally, you need to add the following JavaScript code to your theme's JavaScript file:

$('.shopify-slider').slick({
 dots: true 
});

That's all there is to it! You should now have a fully functioning image slider on your Shopify store.
