Images Carousel

Adding an Image Carousel

With an Image Carousel, you can now insert various photos on your homepage to show off your best products! The Image Carousel is unique because for each image you add, you can insert a destination link that will take users to your location of choice once they click on it. You can direct users to a custom URL, pages, cart, or to specific product.

To add an Image Carousel, simply go to your Shoppy Dashboard and click "Add Widget" then select "Images Carousel". Then, you can select the "Add Widget" button that appears below your new widget to add various images to your app.

Click Actions -> Customize Widget to personalize the details of the widget such as its title, image, and aspect ratio. For each image you add, you can insert a destination link that will take users to your location of choice once they click on it. You can direct users to a custom URL, pages, cart, or to specific product.
