Simple Theme - Slide Show - Text Alignment

Store Design

Topic summary

Need to position slideshow text/button below the images on desktop in the Simple theme. On mobile, the image appears on top with the button underneath (desired). On desktop, theme settings only allow text overlay aligned left, center, or right, with no option to place it below or tucked in a corner to reduce visual distraction.

Goal: Display multiple images with a “Download” button directly beneath the slideshow on desktop for consistent UX across devices.

Constraints: No native desktop option in the theme to place text below the slideshow; likely requires customization.

Latest updates: A community member offered to implement a desktop fix and requested the store link and project assignment. The store owner agreed and asked what to do next.

Status: Unresolved in-thread. No technical steps or code shared yet. Next step appears to be off-thread collaboration (sharing the store link). Open question: whether this can be achieved via settings or will need custom CSS (styling code) or Liquid (Shopify template) changes.

Hello,

I am new to the community and trying to create my first shop. Now I have a question, I am trying to add a slide show attractive for Mobile and Desktop, and the problem I have is that I cannot find an option to put the text underneath the slide show.

I have multiple images that I want to show with a “Download Link” right underneath (ideally), which seems to work well for “Mobile Device”. The image shows on the top and underneath the button. Now, as soon as I want to do it on Desktop, it is on the left, centre or right. (no other options are available), But I cannot put it underneath or somewhere in the corner so that it isn’t as disturbing for the one visiting the page.

So is there a way to do this?
Thanks, Melissa

I can help you to correct it on the desktop view so you have to assign the project to me.

Can you send me your store link.
