Slider does not reach last item

Finsweet Components Slider

I have a CMS slider which worked fine. After changing the design so it shows more slides, it does not reach the final slide. You can see it appearing at the end, but it is not possible to reach completely it by clicking the navigation nor the bullets.

Here is a Loom video showing the issue:

Hey @johannes.widmer!

We can see exactly what’s happening with your slider. This is a common issue when using multiple slides per view - the navigation and bullets aren’t calculating correctly for the last slide because the pagination system doesn’t properly account for partial slide sets.

Based on your Loom video and the fact that it worked before you changed the design to show more slides, here’s what’s likely happening:

When you show multiple slides per view (like 3 slides), but your total number of CMS items isn’t evenly divisible by that number, the last “page” of slides becomes inaccessible through navigation.

Here’s how to fix it:

  1. Open the Finsweet Components app in your Webflow project
  2. Select your slider instance and click “Edit Selected”
  3. Check your “Slides Per View” setting - this is likely where the issue lies
  4. Verify all navigation elements are still inside the instance wrapper

Another option might be to adjust your slides per view to match the total number of items (or vice versa) so they divide evenly. This often solves pagination issues without needing custom code. :thinking:

If you’re still having trouble after trying these steps, @Support-Luis, @Support-Pedro or @jesse.muiruri can help with a custom code solution using the Swiper API.

Hi @Support-Finn,

many thanks for taking the time to help me with my problem and for your detailed instructions! I have tried the steps you described and none of them fixed the issue, but you pointed me in the right direction: I had added a left padding to the slider-list and I assume that’s why the calculation of the navigation could not be correct. By moving the padding to the slider-wrapper above, the problem disappeared :smiley:
