Step 5. Set Up and Manage Your Slides
Create a new blog page and add a new post with the following inputs. Each input will turn into a certain element within the plugin. Repeat this step for each slide – all items are required for the plugin to work.
Blog Title = Title Text
Blog Image = Image
Blog Excerpt Text (Normal) = Description Text
Blog Excerpt Text (Hyperlink) = Turns Into Button
Why a blog? The blog page is simply used as a workaround to house and manage your slides. You’ll link this blog page to a summary block in the next step.
Step 6. Add a Summary Block
Add a summary block to any page with these settings - this will link the summary block to the blog you just created. All settings are required for the plugin to work.
Select a Page: The Blog Page (From Step 5)
Enable: Title, Image, Excerpt
Layout: List Style
Helpful Tips - Create a Button and Transparent Header (Optional)
To create a button within each slide, add a hyperlink text at the very end of the excerpt . The plugin will turn the hyperlink into a button.
For a transparent header, set the transparentHeaderAboveSlider Footer Code Injection option to true and change the header’s color to Adaptive in header settings.
Plugin Notes
Cannot be used with other plugins that use the List Summary Block.
Squarespace's native List style will not be available.
Fonts styles will be inherited from your paragraph font settings.
Slideshow button will inherit styles set for secondary button.
Disabling Squarespace Animations when using this plugin is recommended.
