Create a WooCommerce Product Gallery Slider Using Bricks Builder and Max Addons

Now that we’ve learned about the features of the Product Gallery element, without any further ado, let’s create a WooCommerce Product Gallery Slider with Bricks Builder and Max Addons.

Follow these simple steps, and you’ll have a beautiful, functional product gallery.

2. Create a New Template

Now that Max Addons is ready, let’s create a new page for our product gallery. Go to Bricks >> Templates in your WordPress dashboard, and give your new template a catchy title. Something like “Product Gallery Slider” works perfectly.

After naming your page, click the EDIT WITH BRICKS button.

3. Choose a Pre-Built Template or Start from Scratch

Here, you have two options. You can choose a pre-built community single-product template if you want a head start or design your page from scratch using Bricks Builder.

4. Add the Max Addons’ Product Gallery Element

Once you choose your template, add the Max Addons’ WooCommerce Product Gallery element to the template. Verify that the “MAX” tag is displayed on the upper left corner of the icon.

5. Enable Query Loop in Container

Next, we need to enable the Query Loop in the container where you added the Product Gallery element. This ensures that your gallery dynamically pulls in your WooCommerce products.

6. Set Query Loop Parameters

Now, let’s set up the query loop parameters:

  • Choose Type: Select “Posts.”
  • For Post Type: Choose “Products.”

7. Customization Options in the Product Gallery Element

The Max Addons’ Product Gallery element comes with many options to customize your gallery just how you want it.

8. Choose the Layout

The first option is the Layout. You have three choices: Grid, Carousel, and Thumbnail Slider. Since we’re creating a WooCommerce Product Gallery Slider, we’ll go with the Thumbnail Slider option.

Thumbnail Slider layout displays a large main image with smaller thumbnail images beneath it. Users can click on thumbnails to view the main image, making it perfect for showcasing multiple product angles.

  • Product Image Size: Pick the size for the main product image.
  • Thumbnail Image Size: Choose the size for the thumbnail images.
  • Lightbox Image Size: Define the size for product images when viewed in the lightbox.

  • Type: Choose between Loop, Slide, or Fade transitions.
  • Direction: You can set the slider’s direction — left to Right, Right to Left, or even Vertical.
  • Start Index: Define which slide appears first.
  • Speed: Set the transition speed in milliseconds.

  • Pause on Focus: Pause the slider when the slider is in focus.
  • Interval: Set the time interval between slides in milliseconds.
