NP SoftTech Shopify FAQ
Shopify sections
How do I add a before and after image slider on Shopify without an app?
Use Before/After Section. Shoppers drag a handle between two images on landing or product pages. No compare-app install.
Who this answer is for
Shopify merchants who want a storefront pattern in the theme instead of another monthly app.
How NP SoftTech approaches it
Use two images with the same ratio and compress them for mobile. Optional labels name each side.
Landing and PDP
Add the section wherever OS 2.0 allows sections.
Mobile drag
The handle works on phones. Preview a small width first.
Treatments and makeovers
Common for clinics, interiors, edits and beauty results.
Theme only
No hosted comparison gallery accounts.
When this ranks in search
Merchants look for “Shopify before after slider without appâ€. This section is that pattern.
Accessibility
Keep labels clear. Preview keyboard and touch on your theme.
Apps
Pick a comparison app only if you need extra effects this file does not include.
Common mistakes to avoid
Mismatched image ratios
Different crops make the handle feel broken. Match ratios.
Huge uncompressed photos
Before and after images are often heavy. Compress both.
Practical next step
A general answer is only the starting point.
Open the Shopify sections catalog or the product page you need. For a pattern that is not listed, share the page URL and the job it must do.
