Is it Possible to Replace the Hero image with a Slider on the Base ReadyTheme?

[patquestions]

My website is using the Base ReadyTheme, and I am wondering if it is possible to replace the Hero Image on the storefront with a Slider? I've seen a few other discussion posts on here about creating sliders with other ReadyThemes, but I am having trouble doing the same with the Base ReadyTheme. I am very new to Miva Merchant and coding, so I apologize for any ignorance in this area. Any help is appreciated!

Bootstrap itself does ship with code to create a carousel/slider of images [ https://getbootstrap.com/docs/3.3/javascript/#carousel ]. You would need to create the HTML structure and add in images, usually through ReadyTheme images.

Okay, so would I have to drop that code you linked into the "Header & Footer" section of my storefront? Or would I upload that to my Javascript Resources and then write some HTML in the "Header & Footer" section to call it? How would I go about creating that HTML structure? Might you be able to point me somewhere that explains doing that?

Thanks, Matt!

The JavaScript should already be included in the default Bootstrap files. You would need to copy the HTML from the example, paste it where you would like the carousel display, and add in your images. You may need to add some more classes or styling to have the carousel match your site design.
