CMS Request: Connecting the Slideshow Element to a Dataset in the Wix Editor

Collecting votes

Currently, in the Wix Editor, it is not possible to connect the slideshow element to a dataset. This would allow you to display details about a different CMS (Content Management System) collection item on each slide of your slideshow.

Workarounds:

In the Studio Editor, you can connect slideshows to datasets to show a different collection item in each slide. You can build your site in the Studio Editor if you would like this capability.
You can connect supported elements that are attached to your slideshow slides to a dataset to show CMS content for a single item. This does not allow you to show a different item on each slide, however, you can connect the elements on each slide to different collection fields to show different details about a single item on each slide.
