How can I quickly change the pagination style on my website?

Topic summary

Main issue: Change the pagination style in a Shopify “Refresh” theme, specifically for a slideshow, from the current look to a sleeker style and then into a time-based progress bar.

Initial action: A solution was provided to edit the theme.liquid file and add custom code after the tag to modify the pagination style. theme.liquid is Shopify’s main layout file where global scripts and styles are injected.

Refinement: The code was then updated to place the pagination controls inside the slideshow section, matching the requested layout. Screenshots were referenced to illustrate the desired look.

Final enhancement: A further code update converted the pagination into a progress bar that visually indicates when the slideshow will advance to the next slide. “Progress bar” here means a filling indicator tied to slide timing.

Outcome: The requester confirmed each change worked and expressed satisfaction. Code snippets and images are central to the solution, but the exact code is not shown here. The thread appears resolved with no remaining questions.
