Remove Hover on slideshow to stop Auto rotate

Topic summary

Goal: disable the slideshow’s pause-on-hover so it keeps auto-rotating even when the cursor is over it.

Context and steps taken:

  • Multiple members asked for the store URL; the OP provided a myshopify.com link.
  • Initial advice: check Shopify theme settings via Online Store → Themes → Customize → Slideshow for an option related to pause on hover or autoplay.
  • One reply notes most sliders pause on hover by default and suggests there is a toggle; the OP states no such option exists in their theme settings.

Proposed solutions:

  • Theme setting (if available): turn off “pause on hover” or ensure autoplay continues.
  • Code-level fix: locate and modify the hover/pause logic in theme.liquid or a related JS file; comment out the pause-on-hover fragment. A contributor shared steps via a screenshot, and another provided four annotated screenshot links indicating lines to prefix with // to disable hover pause.

Status:

  • No confirmation that a fix worked yet; the thread remains open.
  • Screenshots/attachments are central to applying the suggested code changes; the code snippet itself was not included in-line.

Hello i Have An Issue , I have on my landing Page A Slide Show that when i hover my cursor on it , it pauses on the slide , when i remove the cursor from the slide show it automatically stops … i Think there is just a code to remove … It’s a pretty simple matter and it should be easy to fix .

Hi! If you need help, please share your store URL. It might be something you can fix through the customization options in your CMS panel.

Go to: Online StoreThemesCustomize (the black button).

Then, click on the Slideshow section and look for any relevant settings.

Hello!

Please share “Store URL”.

Thanks.

Did you try adjusting the customization slider settings? They seem to work fine to me. Most sliders function this way: they pause on hover and resume playing when the mouse moves away.

but no i want to not make it stop when we hover the cirso

Hello, @Sohayl67

Choose slide show option, then you can follow image’s steps.

Thanks!

Please show me your slider settings for the theme customization in CMS. There is an option to turn off it.

There is no option in the slide settings to stop the hovering option that make the auto rotate off

I found a snippet in your code. Try maybe to manipulate the pause fragment.


It should be in the theme.liquid or some js file.

Hi @Sohayl67
