How can I add an auto-rotating slider to the Dawn theme?

Topic summary

A merchant using Shopify’s Dawn theme wants to add an auto‑rotating slider in a specific section and shared a store URL plus a reference screenshot. The request is for an automatic carousel/slider behavior.

Responders stated this requires theme/backend code changes and asked for permission/access to update the theme. No public code snippets, settings, or step‑by‑step solution were provided in‑thread.

Latest update: the merchant added two “Custom Liquid” video blocks (Liquid = Shopify’s templating/code blocks) in different places. Changing the width of one block also changes the other, and they want each to have independent widths.

Outcomes/decisions: none. Assistance offered is contingent on accessing the theme code.

Open items:

  • How to implement an auto‑rotating slider in Dawn via theme code (or app/section) without direct access.
  • How to scope styles/settings so two Custom Liquid sections don’t share width (e.g., separating selectors/IDs or per‑section settings). The thread remains unresolved.
