How to Create a Carousel with Text

Step 1: Add a Carousel Element to Your Page

1. Open GemPages Editor.
2. In the Elements panel, locate the Carousel element.
3. Drag and drop it onto your page where you want it to appear.
4. Click on the carousel to open its settings and adjust the number of slides (e.g., 3 slides for this example).

Step 2: Insert a Hero Banner for Each Slide

A Hero Banner allows you to overlay text on an image, making it the best element for designing a text-based carousel.

To do this:

1. Click on the first slide of the carousel.
2. Drag and drop a Hero Banner element into the slide.
3. Repeat this process for the other slides.

Step 3: Customize the Background of Each Slide

To make your carousel visually appealing, you can set different types of backgrounds:

• Image Background – Upload high-resolution images. Make sure all images are the same size for consistency.
• Color Background – Choose a solid or gradient color for a minimalist look.
• Video Background – Use a short video to create an engaging effect (ensure it doesn’t slow down page loading).

Step 4: Add and Style Text in Each Slide

Now, let’s add the text:

1. Click on the Hero Banner inside the first slide.
2. Type your text in the Text Field.
3. Customize the font style, size, color, and alignment using the right-side settings panel.
4. Repeat for the remaining slides.
