Hello,
I want to put a slider on the Home page but do not know how. I read the “Header Image” help page but none of that made any sense to me??? I just bought this theme and am having so many problems (this is just one) and I am getting very frustrated at this point. I REALLY could use some help on this, Please!
The slider I am using is called Smart Slider but I can install which ever one you feel is best to make this work. But as I am not a PHP guru, I am going to need to know exactly where to put the code and exactly what the code is. Andy mentioned on the other post that I needed to put the header.php file inside my child theme and change code under trusted_header_title(). There is nothing in the header.php file that mentions that name, so I am lost.
PLEASE HELP!
The new update is due to be released tomorrow which has the option of a custom header area.
It will accept plugin shortcodes, so in the page/post editor you will be able to add the Smart Slider shortcode into the header.
Thank you for the update. However, I have a question,,,when I add a slider to the Home page under Custom > Content, it wraps the slider in <p></p> which means it does not stretch all the way across the site (like all the other header images)? How can I add a slider without constraining the width to the content of the rest of the page?
Just checked your site and your slider is full width, so I assume you have found the layout setting and adjusted it accordingly.
See the four images available to select for the content layout
PS don’t worry about the
<p></p>paragraph tags as they are automatically stripped out if there is a shortcode in use.I fixed it. I used a different slider and it worked. With the exception of the way the page scrolls now…The content doesn’t cover the header once you start scrolling for some reason???
