Meta Slider in Twenty Seventeen header

  • Hi everyone,

    I followed an old thread in this forum to integrate Meta Slider into the header of the Twenty Seventeen theme.

    I am running WordPress 4.9.6 with a Twenty Seventeen child theme and the Meta Slider 3.7.2 plugin

    I inserted this line at the bottom of the header.php:

    <?php
    echo do_shortcode(“[metaslider id=144]”);
    ?>

    Unfortunately, this places the Slider not into Twenty Seventeen’s header, but below:

    It would be great to hear from you on this,

  • Hi Geb,

    Can you copy and share the complete code of Header.php where you have added the shortcode to gist.github.com or pastebin and share the link here?

    I will be happy to take a look ??

    Testing this on a local test site. Thanks :). i will keep you posted here.

    Within the code you sent Can you try changing line 31

    /* <?php get_template_part( 'template-parts/header/header', 'image' ); ?> */

    to
    <?/* php get_template_part( 'template-parts/header/header', 'image' ); */?>

    That’s the way to comment off php code. I tried this and it seems to be working correctly on the theme i have here :). Let me know if it works fine.
