Tell us what you are trying to do? I have a gallery on my content template that just shows images in columns at the moment. My Client wants to replace this with an image slider instead. So just one column, one image at a time, with slider capabilities. I know you can do it via the blocks editor but I am using the classic editor to try and do this and I don't know how to go about it.

Is there any documentation that you are following? No

Is there a similar example that we can see? hidden link

What is the link to your site? thankful-scissors.localsite.io - you will need a username and password to view the site which I can provide if you send me the section to complete the login details etc.

Hello,

You can try Toolset Image Slider block, see our documents:

Hello. Thank you for contacting the Toolset support.

You can build the slider using the classic view editor. You should try to follow the following Doc:
- https://toolset.com/documentation/legacy-features/views-plugin/creating-sliders-with-types-and-views/

I don't think that is going to work because I have a custom post type called "Catamaran listings" and within that there is an image field that allows multiple instances to create the standard gallery seen in the screenshot below.

If I go to create a new view and make it a slider, I cannot select images in the filter query - they don't display on the list?

Ok - even though you are using classic view, you can build the loop template using the block view,

You should build the loop template using the block view and try to follow the following doc to add gallery using the repeating field:
