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.
Blog Title = Title Text
Blog Tag = Subtitle Text
Blog Image = Image
Blog Excerpt = Description Text
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)
Primary Metadata: Tags
Enable: Title, Image, Excerpt
Layout: Carousel Style
⚠️ Important: Add the text front (in all lowercase) to the summary block’s header text box.
Plugin Notes
Font family inherits from title and body settings.
Cannot use other plugins that also use the carousel layout.
Squarespace's native carousel layout will not be available.
Troubleshooting (Plugin Not Working)
Primary metadata is set to tags.
The front text has been added to the summary’s header box.
A title, excerpt, image, and tag are all required in each post.
If only 3 items are showing, check the summary block’s number of items setting.
