Wix Editor: Slideshows on Mobile
4 min read
Slideshows are a sophisticated, unique way to display images and content on your site. Use them to display presentations, products, or deals.
You can adjust slideshows on your mobile site to suit the screen size, and encourage your visitors to interact and explore from their devices.
Important:
Updating the order of the slides from the desktop editor does not automatically update them for your mobile site. You can update the order of the slides on your mobile site by hiding then unhiding the slideshow. This resets the design of your slideshow, so we recommend getting the slides in order before adjusting the design.
