How can i change size of slider to 1400 pxl?

Topic summary

Goal: Set the slideshow (slider) in the Shopify Dawn theme to 1400 px width without enlarging the entire page.

Key solutions:

  • CSS in base.css (preferred, concrete): Add at the bottom of Assets > base.css: slideshow-component.page-width { max-width: 1400px; } This constrains only the slideshow section to 1400px while leaving other site elements unchanged.
  • Alternative approach: Add custom code in theme.liquid above the tag. (Details of the code were not shown in the thread; a screenshot demonstrated the result.)

Outcome and status:

  • The original poster confirmed success and expressed thanks after applying the guidance, indicating the issue is effectively resolved.
  • No additional questions or outstanding issues were raised.

Notes:

  • Visual examples (screenshots) were shared to illustrate the desired and achieved results.
  • Context: “Dawn” is Shopify’s default theme; changes were made via Online Store > Edit code to adjust only the slideshow component’s width.
