How can I incorporate an image slider into the Dawn theme?

Technical Q&A
21

For any one who is seeing this post…Please under stand this.

There are several option to Product display on Shopify.

  1. A Product can have multiple images. These images can display below main image in a slider like that of amazon etc.

  2. A Product can have multiple variant and each variant will have its single image.

If we go for Option 1 above, we can display product slider like that of Amazon. Yes ! You can do this very well in Dawn theme just be selecting Thumbnail carrousel option in Product page customisation.

If we go for Option 2 above, we will not have any slider on Shopify product page like that of amazon. But when different product variant is selected, associated different image will display e.g. you must have seen such product on amazon e.g. at 27" monitor. When you go to the product page, you will see that it has option for 22" monitor also built on that page. That is product variant. Amazon is special in which when you change product variant, it loads associated image of that variant also. On shopify, this will require custom coding and I am already working this to make it happen.
