We need to create a page. From your Admin page, go to Online store, then Pages.
Step #5. Write the page
But when you want the slider to enclose the image, add the text below before the first image. Make sure to not add spaces.
See image below on how the "===page-slider===" is added before the first image. NOTE: Do not add quotation marks (")

Add text below after the last image. Please follow on how it is written below.

See the image below, how to make a space between the next image that is not included in the page-slider.
Click the image that you want to place beside the slide. Make sure to add a space on the left. For this example below, I set it to 10.

To change the position of the slider, make sure to change the alignment of the first image only inside the slider. Click the image, then change the Alignment to left, center, or right. See image below.
Step #8. Save Changes.

If you are having issues at times, it might be because some code was changed in your Admin Page. Make sure that the code for the ===page-slider=== is enclosed by a <p> or <p><span>. You need to click the "<>" to see the code. See image below
