what’s up guys computer I’m Dee of Gilbert here and in today’s video I’m gonna show you how to add a slider with images here in Wix this is useful especially for like the homepage of your website having like a big slider maybe even a small slider but a lot of modern websites nowadays utilize sliders to their advantage on Wix before we hop into that guys don’t forget to go check out Wix my website com where I am going and collecting signups to
get on the email list to notify you guys when this new Wix my website course that I’m creating goes live as you can see I also added a video here this is a new video that I just added to the landing page so for some of you that seen my past couple videos I did not have this video here now I do so if you guys want to go check that out feel free to go ahead but yeah you guys need to take an opportunity for any of you new here this which course is
going to be extremely beneficial to you guys I am so excited when I see you guys sign up because I know how it’s gonna benefit you and I know the hard work that I’ve been putting into this and I know it’s gonna show for you guys and I just really want to help you build your website from start to finish and have you come out with a completed product and a good new knowledge of Wix to fully understand and grasp it but anyways guys link in the
description for that let me show you how to add a slider here whips so you’re gonna go up to the Add button when you get up here you’ll see a slide show and you’ll also see galleries but I’m not showing you a gallery but galleries are also nice to have especially for like a photography website but you’ll get to slideshow in here you’ll see full width slideshows and then you’ll scroll down a little bit and you’ll see box slideshows so the
difference between these two is the blocks box slideshow will only take up a small portion of your page and will stay within these gridlines so those are nice to have and you have to choose a base off of your preference and when you’re gonna need for your website but then the full width slideshow will take up the entire page so you’ll see right here it’ll take up the entire width of your website now these slides I think are more common in the new
modern websites that people have created let me show you how to manage the slides and edit the design so manage the slide you’ll simply go up here you’ll click manage slides once you get in here you’ll see slide 1 slide 2 slide 3 to manage the slide you would simply click these three buttons and then you could either rename duplicate delete you could change the order of the slides in here now to change the background and the actual image of the
slide you’d come up here to change slide background and you would change it to something else you could change the image in it now you could also click on the slide and you’ll see it changes the image and same thing you would come up here change slide slide background and you could change the image you can make it a video if you wanted you could even make it a different color just like a base color Wix has pre design slides on here for you if you
want to take advantage of them or to add your own image or video you would simply click image it’ll pull up your media library and you would go ahead and click an image in there to add it onto here simple to do and it’s really nice and it’s an appealing design on your website now to change the settings you simply go into settings and you’ll see right here does the slideshow autoplay so do you want it to be a manual slideshow where the users click
the little arrows or do you want it to autoplay so that it filters through every time someone new comes on your website and it’ll automatically change slides for you and if you do want it on autoplay you then choose how long you want the slides to play for and then you also have the option to stop the autoplay on hover so if someone hovers over it it’ll stop the autoplay you could take that option off and that way it’ll just keep it on autoplay
but if you want it to stop when someone hovers over it you just simply click that you could apply transition effects so every time it swishes slides how do you want it to switch slides and then also how long do you want the transition to last and then finally you could choose where do they start do you want to start it from the right or the left and that’s just preference and then it also says hide content outside of frame you can choose that as
well it’s completely up to you all the design and settings really are in your ballpark and they’re in your court and it’s it’s up to you how you want to do that and how it’s gonna best fit for your business or your website but this is just some examples of how to do it here on Wix and then you could also see design right here and that’s where you could change the color the slide buttons and the navigation arrows or the design of the slider itself
