Adding pagination to product images at the collection page

Topic summary

A user wants to add image pagination/scrolling functionality to product listings on their collection page, allowing customers to browse multiple product images without clicking into individual product pages. They’re using the Dawn theme and reference Kenzo’s mobile site as an example.

Technical Considerations:

  • This requires custom code development, particularly for mobile devices
  • Product/variant images aren’t natively paginated in Liquid templates
  • Implementation risks include loading all product images simultaneously, which can severely impact page performance and user bandwidth

Design Warning:

  • Subtle image swiping interactions may reduce conversions if not clearly communicated
  • Users recommend obvious visual indicators (arrows, paging dots) to signal the scrolling capability, especially for newer brands

Status: The discussion remains open with one developer offering to write custom code, while another expert cautions about the complexity and potential performance pitfalls of this advanced customization.
