Change "background-image" URL with your image URL in the code. H1 is the title in the slider. <p> Tag contains description text.

<meta name="viewport" content="width=device-width, initial-scale=1">
<div class="slider" id="slider">
      <div class="slItems">
           <div class="slItem" style="background-blend-mode: multiply; background: rgba(0,0,0,0.6) url('https://app.unbouncepreview.com/publish/assets/10a0e0e1-e4f4-4809-8649-3a22c80c38fb/1000/237/1000/237/0/0/47746853-slide_0rs06l0rs06l000000.png'); background-position:0px 0px; background-repeat: no-repeat;background-size: cover;">

4. Add custom JS in your page. Copy the following JS code and add in a new JS script named "slider".

Add this JS code in your Javascript section. You don't need to update the code. Change the code placement to "Head" section.

 <script > jQuery.fn.rbtSlider = function(a) {
    return this.each(function() {
        function f(a, c) {
            c ? nextItem = b.find(".slItem").eq(c - 1) : ("prev" == a ? b.find(".slItem.active").prev().length ? nextItem = b.find(".slItem.active").prev() : nextItem = b.find(".slItem").last() : b.find(".slItem.active").next().length ? nextItem = b.find(".slItem.active").next() : nextItem = b.find(".slItem").first(), b.find(".slDots > .active").removeClass("active").parent().find(".slDotsSingle").eq(nextItem.index()).addClass("active")), nextItem.addClass(a + "Item").delay(50).queue(function() {
                b.find(".slItems > .active").addClass(a).delay(700).queue(function() {
                    $(this).removeClass(a + " active").dequeue()
                }), $(this).addClass(a).delay(700).queue(function() {
                    $(this).removeClass(a + " " + a + "Item").addClass("active").clearQueue()
                }), $(this).dequeue()
            })
        }
        var b = $(this);
        if (a.height && b.css("height", a.height), b.find(".slItem").first().addClass("active"), a.dots) {
            var c = b.find(".slItem").size();
            b.append($("<div/>", {
                "class": "slDots",
                html: $("<div/>", {
                    "class": "slDotsSingle active"
                })
            }));
            for (var d = 1; c > d; d++) b.find(".slDotsSingle.active").clone().removeClass("active").appendTo($(this).find(".slDots"));
            b.find(".slDotsSingle").on("click", function() {
                curIndex = $(this).parents(".slDots").find(".active").removeClass("active").index() + 1, index = $(this).addClass("active").index() + 1, index != curIndex && (index > curIndex ? f("next", index) : f("prev", index))
            })
        }
        if (a.arrows && b.append($("<div/>", {
                "class": "ctrlPrev",
                html: "&lsaquo;"
            }).on("click", function() {
                f("prev")
            })).append($("<div/>", {
                "class": "ctrlNext",
                html: "&rsaquo;"
            }).on("click", function() {
                f("next")
            })), a.auto) {
            var e = setInterval(function() {
                f("next")
            }, 1e3 * a.auto);
            b.on("mouseover", function() {
                clearInterval(e)
            }).on("mouseleave", function() {
                e = setInterval(function() {
                    f("next")
                }, 1e3 * a.auto)
            })
        }
    })
}; < /script>


4. Add another custom JS in your page. Copy the following JS code and add in a new JS script named "mainjs".

 <script src = "https://ajax.googleapis.com/ajax/libs/jquery/2.2.4/jquery.min.js" ></script>
<script>$(function(){$('#slider').rbtSlider({height: '450px', 'dots': true,'arrows': true,'auto': 3});}); </script >


4. Add following CSS in the page. You can update any properties based on your preferences. But don't update the class names. If you update, make sure to update it in HTML as well.

EDIT: Add "mainjs" above "slider" JS to make the slider work. If you see any problem with the slider, let us know in the comment section.

That's it. You should be able to see your image slider working in Unbounce

NOTE: This slider works well in Desktop. It isn't recommended to use slider in mobile so this slider isn't responsive. You can hide this section in mobile view and replace it with a static image.
