please help!! remove arrows from slide show

A user working with Shopify’s Debut theme wants to remove navigation arrows and dots from their slideshow, and make the slideshow images clickable to direct customers to specific collections.

Solution Provided:

  • To hide slideshow controls (arrows and dots), add CSS code to theme.css:
    .slideshow__controls, .slideshow__text-wrap--mobile{
    visibility: hidden;
    }

Hi, this worked for me on desktop but not on mobile. Any suggestions? I’m using the studio theme.

Thanks!
