# Marketing text slider

{% hint style="info" %}
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?**](https://themedocs.zenit.design/en/master#step-5-settings-plugin-app-configuration)
{% endhint %}

## 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.

{% hint style="success" %}
**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`
{% endhint %}

We have provided more information for translating content in a separate [tutorial](https://themedocs.zenit.design/en/content/multilingualism).

## 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.
