How can I add a second button to a Spark theme slideshow?

Topic summary

A user is attempting to add a second button to a single slide within the Spark theme’s slideshow feature. Previous solutions found in forums haven’t worked.

Initial Solution Provided:

  • Add code to slideshow-item.liquid file to create a second button
  • This successfully creates two buttons, but both appear as duplicates with no separate editing options in the slide settings

Current Issue:

  • The code modification applies the same two buttons (with identical links) to all slideshows across different pages
  • The user needs each page’s slideshow to have unique button links, not universal ones

Status: The discussion remains open with an unresolved question about how to customize individual slideshow buttons per page rather than applying the same configuration globally.

Currently trying to add a second button to 1 slide on a slideshow in theme Spark. I’ve tried the codes listed on the forum and none seem to work. What is the solution for this? Thanks.

You can add below code into slideshow-item.liquid


              {{ link_text }}
 

Thanks, I know have two buttons but I am only seeing the option to edit one button in the slide options so now I just have a duplicate. Is there a way to edit the second button so it is something different than the first?

@peppergrassdes
you can add in html form also by giving button name and link to the button
for example:


              hello there
            

Thank you, I see now this changes every slideshow to two buttons with the same link on each page using a slideshow. Is there no way to customize each page with a different link that I am using a slideshow on, do they all have to be the same?
