Easing Slider for Homepage Only Not Working…

Hi. It appears to be caused by the way you’ve achieved the positioning of the navigation. It doesn’t appear to be rendering the same in all browsers.

I think you’ll need to find a new way to achieve the same positioning. Also make sure to put the floated elements inside clearfix’d divs, making sure everything plays nicely.

As it is more of a theme styling issue, I can’t give much more advice on how to fix what is occurring. It isn’t directly related to the slideshow itself, just the way it is getting positioned relative to the other page elements above it. Sorry about that.

Thanks for the quick response. I’ll look into fixing my styles…I’m still at the “hacker” level in the coding world. Do you think you can point me in the right direction of just having the sliding header on the homepage?

Thanks again!

Haha, don’t worry about it. No harm doing some hacking, great way to learn.

To display the slideshow on just the home page, try using this in your theme file to display the slideshow:

<?php
if ( is_home() && function_exists('easing_slider') ) {
    easing_slider();
}
?>

Alternatively, if that doesn’t work, you can change the is_home() to is_front_page().

Thnak you MatthewRuddy, the plugin is very user friendly and simple. Amazing!!!!!

No problem at all ??

Thank you for this code Matthew; works a treat ??

Great to hear ??

Sorry to hijack, but in which theme file should the code above go in to?

Thanks

It depends on your theme and where you wish to display the slideshow. Not much more of an answer I can give than that. Trial and error is probably the best way to find out!

I want the slider on the home page only…any clue as to which theme file i should be looking for (and which to avoid)

Thanks

Again, this completely depends on your theme. Try the index.php files, header.php file or page.php file. If none of those, I really don’t know. Sorry.

No need to apologise Matthew…I understand.

Hope you can get it working as intended ?? Good luck!
