In the steps below, we create a web template component that displays a slideshow of images enabling Citizen developers to be able to configure the speed and indicator visibility of the slideshow in the power pages designer studio.
Create a web template.
In the Portal management (or power pages portal management if using enhanced data model) app , in the Content section, choose Web Templates and select New from the main menu to create a new web template.
Enter imageslider for the Name and save.
Setup the template with manifest.
In the Power Pages Design studio, Select Edit Code which opens VS code for the web
- Under web-templates select imageslider.html
web-template
and copy/paste the following code
<div id="myCarousel" data-ride="carousel" class="carousel slide" data-interval={{interval}}>
<!-- Indicators -->
{% if {{indicator}} == 'Yes' %}
<ol class="carousel-indicators">
<li data-target="#myCarousel" data-slide-to="0" class="active"></li>
<li data-target="#myCarousel" data-slide-to="1"></li>
<li data-target="#myCarousel" data-slide-to="2"></li>
</ol>
{% endif %}
<!--slides -->
<div class="carousel-inner">
