Creating a Hero Carousel (Slideshow) for Your Locable Website

Easily add multiple slides to showcase more content on your webpage

Available for all plans on the Locable Marketing Platform

 

The Hero content block—commonly referred to as the welcome banner—appears at the top of your website and individual webpages. It’s often the first thing visitors see and is ideal for making a strong impression.

By default, the Hero includes a single slide, but you can easily convert it into a carousel (also called a slideshow) with up to 6 rotating slides.

Each slide is fully customizable with its own:

  • Background image

  • Foreground image

  • Title and subtitle

  • Custom colors

This gives you plenty of flexibility to highlight different messages, promotions, or visuals in one dynamic space.

Adding Slides to Your Hero

To add a slide to your Hero, click the ➕ (plus) button on the left:

A new slide will appear as a second box in the row of slide thumbnails. Each box represents a slide and the order in which it appears on the live site.:

Select the new slide to edit it. Click into the text to edit the Title and Subtitle (or remove if you don't want a subtitle).

Use the orange toolbar to update the:

  • Title

  • Subtitle

  • Images (background/foreground)

  • Colors and settings

 

NOTE:  The orange toolbar only applies to the slide being viewed. If you click the trash can icon to 'delete', for example, it will only delete the slide you are viewing and not the full Hero block.

 

Reordering and Removing Slides

To reorder slides:
Click and drag a slide's thumbnail (the small square box) to a new position in the row.

To remove a slide:
Select the slide you want to delete, then click the Trash icon on the orange toolbar.
