Online Store: How do I add a slider to my Square site?

The title of this thread has been edited from the original: boo slider

I would like to add a slider to my professional square up site (such as Boo Slider). I am unable to add it, and am wondering if there are suggestions for alternatives?

 

Thank you

Hey @Lula1!

 

Thanks for posting in the Seller Community.

 

Would you be using Boo Slider for the layout of your site? For images? What exact features of Boo Slider are you looking for in your Square Online Store?

 

Let me know so I can provide further instruction.

Hi Isabelle. Thank you for your reply. I am interested in having the first main banner of my home page be a sliding series of images with text. In researching, boo slider was recommended. However, when I try to purchase it, it says I cannot with my account?

 

Hoping you have a fix!

Many thanks again.

Hey @Lula1!

 

Thanks for your reply. I see what you're looking for now!

 

Is this for featured items? If so, we have the following template which is close to what you're looking for:

 

 

Would that work? If not, perhaps @AdamB has a suggestion.

Hi Isabelle,

 

Thank you for your message. This unfortunately will not work, as I’m looking to add a first main section to the site that is just one pic+text. Slide to next pic+Text (repeat).

similar to www. Spice-topic.com

 

Any other thoughts?

i thought boo slider was a plug-in that would afford this... but it won’t work for me...

 

hmmmm

Hey @Lula1-

 

Thanks for your patience while I took a bit to respond. 

 

Unfortunately BooSlider will not work with the Square Online Store. We do not currently have an alternative for this. Hopefully this is an integration we'll have available in the future, or a feature we'll offer within our Online Store settings. Thanks for surfacing this, and let me know if there's anything else we can answer for you.

Hello.

Wondering if there has been an update to allow for a slider image as the main banner?
