- How can I adjust the slideshow speed to 1.5 seconds if the minimum setting is 3 seconds?
- How can I make each image in the slideshow clickable?
Topic summary
A user needed to customize the Dawn theme’s slideshow functionality in two ways: reducing the minimum speed from 3 seconds to 1.5 seconds, and making slideshow images clickable.
Speed Adjustment (Resolved):
- Navigate to theme code editor: Online theme → Edit code → slideshow.liquid in sections folder
- Locate the schema section and modify parameters: change “min” to 1.5 and “step” to 0.5
- Save changes, then adjust speed in the theme customizer
Clickable Images (Resolved):
- Add HTML link wrapper code above the slideshow text wrapper div
- In the schema section, locate “image_picker” and add a new URL field:
{
"type": "url",
"id": "image_link",
"label": "Image Link"
}
- After saving, an “Image Link” field appears in the theme customizer for each slide
- The user initially encountered an “Invalid JSON” error but successfully resolved it with guidance
Both customizations were completed successfully. Screenshots throughout the thread illustrate the code locations and customizer interface.

I tried making the adjustment but received the following error:
“Unable to update the file. Invalid JSON in tag ‘schema’.”
- Where should I paste the link for the first slide?
- Where should I paste the links for the next two slides?
another place for a link:
- Where should I paste the link for the first slide?
It said above.
it should be above the <div class="slideshow__text-wrapper banner__content banner__content–{{
- Where should I paste the links for the next two slides?
For the schema find the image_picker
Add space.
Then paste:
{
"type": "url",
"id": "image_link",
"label": "Image Link"
},
Must look like this.
And Save.
After Go to Customize theme. This will be visible.
