Marketing text slider

Outputs an animated text slider in the storefront header.

Unlike the styling configuration (theme configuration), the settings of a theme are always stored in the parent theme. A child theme does not have its own area with settings.

Where can I find the theme settings?

Set up

In these settings you can set up a marketing slider per sales channel. Thereby in the field Marketing text (2) several lines of text can be entered. Each line then rotates in the text slider as a separate slide. The movement attracts users attention.

In addition, a link can be implemented as a button. Besides the button text (3) and the button link (4) you can determine the buttons target (5) to open in new window or self window. Don't forget to enable (1) the marketing slider.

Content translation

The text in these configurations can be made available in different languages for multi-language support by using the text snippets in the storefront. Follow the blue help icons to jump directly to the snippet.

In snippets: Use in the translation of the Marketing text (2) semicolons as separator of single lines. Example with three text slides / lines:

Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet; consetetur sadipscing elitr; sed diam nonumy eirmod

We have provided more information for translating content in a separate tutorial.

Positioning

In the settings of the theme in the section General > Basic layout > Basic configuration you can configure the positioning of the marketing slider.

Because it is an element of the top bar, the Top bar (1) positioning affects also the position of the marketing slider.
