Want Product Page Image To Be Slidable

Store Design
, , , , , , , , ,

Topic summary

A Shopify store owner wants to add two features to their product page:

Requested Features:

  • Make product images slidable/swipeable
  • Automatically change images when customers select different product variants (packs)

Developer Response:
A developer (Shadab_dev) suggests first checking if the current theme’s customizer supports image sliding functionality. They note that variant-based image switching is standard in most modern themes—it just requires assigning images to each variant.

Technical Considerations:

  • If these features aren’t available, the theme may be outdated or poorly built
  • Custom code implementation is possible but time-intensive
  • Main challenge: locating correct code placement in pre-built themes, not the coding itself
  • Debugging image-switching issues adds complexity

Next Steps:
The developer offered to help via email but indicated this would require:

  • Collaborator access to the store (preferred over just theme files for easier debugging)
  • A service fee due to the research and troubleshooting involved

The conversation remains open as they discuss logistics.

Please check from your customizer if it allows for a slide feature for your product images. And for products cha ging you normally get this feature in almost all themes. You just need to add an image for that variant.

If your theme does not allow this, then you are using an old theme I guess or barebones theme. This might probably take a lot a looking up and code. The code could be not much but finding the location where to insert the code is where the challenge lies when updating/adding code in a pre-build theme.

Please reach out via mail for a convenient conversation and solution

Thanks

Hi @Emiway1 these things do take a lot of time looking things up even if sometimes not a lot of code has to be added but where to add the code is what takes time. Also to find bugs on why image is not changing, you get the point I believe.

One thing is I would prefer a collaborator access to your store than just getting the theme files. This will make things easier to debug.

And also that since it might take a lot of looking up it will definitely come with a service fee.

If this all sounds good, please reach out for a convenient conversation.

Thanks
