Using the Slideshow Option in Vsble

Create immersive full-screen visuals with image or video slideshows

Updated over a week ago

What is the Slideshow option?

The Slideshow option in Vsble allows you to create full-screen, auto-playing galleries using either images or videos. It’s a powerful way to grab attention and create a dynamic, modern feel—perfect for portfolios, landing pages, or visual intros.

The slideshow can be optionally switched on for all V2 Templates. V1 templates, depending on the layout, come with or without a slideshow, that is part of design and can not be switched on or off.

What kind of content can I use in a slideshow?

You can use:

Images – Upload high-resolution visuals to rotate in sequence
Videos – Embed content from YouTube, Vimeo, or other providers

Photo Slideshow:

Video Slideshow:

How do I activate the slideshow layout?

For V1 templates, choose a template that has a built-in slideshow.

To enable a slideshow in V2 Templates:

  1. Under Customization, select Slideshow and engable it

  2. Go back to the main navigation section and click on the slideshow, which is set automatically as your landing page.

  3. Upload your images or embed video links

  4. Adjust slideshow settings like:

    • Full screen or original ratio

    • Looping

    • Focus points (for image centering in the viewport)

Can I adjust the header and footer when using a slideshow?

Yes! Slideshow pages allow extra control over header and footer visibility and styling:

Header Options:

  • Set transparency, color, and layout to match your visual content

Footer Options:

  • Choose to hide the footer completely, or

  • Set it to appear on mouse-over only

  • Adjust layout, color, and transparency for a clean, unobtrusive look

Is the slideshow layout applied globally?

Yes — the Slideshow layout is applied globally across both desktop and mobile views. While some design elements (like headers and footers) can be adjusted per device, the slideshow itself uses one shared layout for all screen sizes.

Best Use Cases for Slideshows

  1. Full-screen homepage intros

  2. Portfolio overviews with bold visual impact

  3. Mood or concept presentations

  4. Video backgrounds for campaigns or brand storytelling

Tips & Best Practices

✅ Use high-resolution images or properly hosted videos for smooth display
✅ Set a clear focus point to avoid unwanted cropping
✅ Use custom thumbnails (JPG or GIF) for a more branded experience
✅ Keep slides minimal—let the visuals speak

Summary

The Slideshow layout in Vsble is a flexible and powerful tool to elevate the visual experience on your site. Whether you're using it for photos, videos, or both, it gives your pages movement, focus, and a strong first impression—while maintaining a clean and consistent design across all devices.
