Create a Hero Slideshow on the Homepage using the Media Slideshow Template

Media Slideshow is a page template that can be used on the home page of our websites. The Department of Religion is a great example of what this could look like on your website.

How to Create a Homepage Media Slideshow

Setting up the Media Slideshow Page Template

  1. Log in to your site and go to the home page on the front end. It will look something like this:
  2. In the top black tool bar, you’ll see a button for “Edit Page” next to a pencil icon. Click “Edit Page”
  3. On the right hand side, you’ll see drop-down boxes titled “Publish,” “Format,” “Tags,” and then “Page Attributes.”
    Within Page Attributes, click inside the box titled “Template” and click “Media Slideshow” and then click the “Publish” or “Update” Button
