## Slide
Use this shortcode when you need to customize slide attributes like id, class, background color and transition.
---
{{< slide class="hello" >}}
## Slide
Add the shortcode above the slide's content, below the `---`.
```markdown
---
{{* slide class="hello" */>}}
## Hello, world!
---
```
---
{{< slide transition="zoom" transition-speed="fast" >}}
## Custom slide 1
Did you notice? This slide has a fast zoom transition.
```markdown
---
{{* slide transition="zoom" transition-speed="fast" */>}}
## Custom slide 1
---
```
---
{{< slide background="#FF4081" >}}
## Custom slide 2
This slide has a different background color.
```markdown
---
{{* slide background="#FF4081" */>}}
## Custom slide 2
---
```

{{< slide id="custom-slide" >}}
💡 Tip: Setting a slide's `id` attribute makes it easy to link to from other parts of the presentation.
```markdown
---
{{* slide id="custom-slide" */>}}
## Custom slide
---
```
---
```markdown
[Try the link](#custom-slide)
```

Create templates in config.toml, _index.md or the current page's front matter. Put them under the **templates** key with a meaningful name:
```toml
[reveal_hugo.templates.hotpink]
class = "hotpink"
background = "#FF4081"
```
---
{{< slide template="hotpink" >}}
Apply the template using the **template** attribute of the slide shortcode:
```markdown
{{* slide template="hotpink" */>}}
# I'm a hot pink slide!
```
---
If a template exists in multiple configurations, it's properties will be merged. If a property is declared multiple times, the order of precedence is:
- page
- section (_index.md)
- site (config.toml)
