How can I fix the issue where all arrows on each swiper slider only affect the first one, even when I attach a different class name for each swiper to their own?
To fix the issue where all arrows on each swiper slider only affect the first one, even when using different class names for each swiper, you need to make sure that the arrow elements are properly bound to their respective swiper instances. Here's how you can do it:
- Assign a unique class to each swiper container:
- Identify each swiper container element and give them unique class names. For example, you can use
.swiper-container-1
,.swiper-container-2
, etc., or any other naming convention that helps you differentiate them.
- Create separate arrow elements for each swiper container:
- Duplicate the arrow elements (usually
<div>
or<button>
) for each swiper container that you have. - Assign unique class names to each set of arrow elements. For example, you can use
.swiper-button-prev-1
and.swiper-button-next-1
for the first swiper container,.swiper-button-prev-2
and.swiper-button-next-2
for the second one, and so on.
- Update the swiper initialization script:
In your JavaScript code, make sure that you are initializing each swiper instance separately.
Use the unique class names you assigned to the swiper containers and arrow elements in the initialization script.
Double-check that the arrow elements are properly bound to their respective swiper instance using the
navigation.prevEl
andnavigation.nextEl
options. For example:```javascript
var swiper1 = new Swiper('.swiper-container-1', {
// swiper options for container 1
navigation: {
prevEl: '.swiper-button-prev-1',
nextEl: '.swiper-button-next-1',
},
});var swiper2 = new Swiper('.swiper-container-2', {
// swiper options for container 2
navigation: {
prevEl: '.swiper-button-prev-2',
nextEl: '.swiper-button-next-2',
},
});
```
By following these steps, you should be able to fix the issue where all arrows on each swiper slider only affect the first one. Each swiper container will have its own set of arrow elements that properly control its respective swiper instance.
