How to do it
- Our page contains a Bootstrap 3 container. Inside the container we want to place the HTML5 Slideshow 2. Click inside the container (1) and from the insert panel (2) select HTML5 Slideshow 2 (3).
- Select the static image source option (1). We want to resize the images that will be imported in the slideshow so we leave the DMXzone Image Resizer option checked (2). We want to import a whole folder with images so we click the import folder icon (3).
- Select your source and destination folders (1) and enter the max width and height for your images (2). When you're done, click OK.
- You can see all of the images that have been imported into our slideshow. You can add a title, description and link to each of the slides (1). We leave those empty as we don't need them for now. Go to the advanced tab (2).
- Change the display mode to: responsive (1). When the display mode is set to responsive, use % values for the slideshow width. 100% means, that the slideshow will be as wide as the container that it is placed into. Our images aspect ratio is 16 by 9 so we enter 56.52% as a slideshow height (2). Select one of the design presets, we choose the minimalistic (3) and set the image placement option to: fill (4). Customize the appearance and animations options, of the HTML5 2 and click the OK button when you are done.
- Now, save your work and preview the result in the browser.
