Reading Time: 5 minutes Last Updated: March 17, 2026

The Products Slider (Theme) Block displays a carousel of products using your theme’s native WooCommerce product template, combining the interactive slider experience with your store’s consistent product styling.

Overview#

Block Name: Products Slider (Theme)
Category: RedFox Thank You
Purpose: Display a product carousel using theme-native styling
Available In: Pro

What It Does#

This block:

  • Displays products in a Swiper-based carousel using your theme’s WooCommerce product template
  • Automatically inherits your theme’s product card styling, buttons, and layout
  • Provides full slider controls including autoplay, navigation arrows, and pagination dots
  • Supports the same flexible product sourcing as the Products Slider block
  • Ensures the thank you page products match the look and feel of the rest of your store

When to Use#

Use This Block When:

  • You want a product carousel that matches your theme’s WooCommerce styling
  • Maintaining visual consistency with the rest of your store is a priority
  • Your theme has well-styled product templates you want to reuse in a slider format
  • You want the slider functionality without managing product card styles

Use Products Slider Instead When:

  • You want full control over product card styling (colors, typography, spacing, borders, shadows)
  • You need custom sale badge styling
  • You want to style product images, titles, and prices independently

Use Products Grid (Theme) Instead When:

  • You want theme-styled products in a static grid layout instead of a carousel
