New Front Page Templates

Hi @kdickins

Can you please provide us your site URL?

https://sites.clarkson.edu

Hi @kdickins

You are saying slider is working at club page. You have assigned club page to home page but there is no slider on your site.

Can you provide us temporary wp-admin login to your site?

Please add us as admin of your site using this email info(at)axlethemes.com

We will check your issue and try our best to solve it.

Sorry, I had the front page assigned – I was still working, my apologies.

I have created a user, and it has sent you an email. Please let me know if you need anything else in the meantime.

Unfortunately, I was told that it was not the best idea to give you a user in order to figure this problem out. Is there another way that I can give you the information you need?

Having added that code mentioned above to the theme itself (it doesn’t work when I apply it in the child theme for whatever reason), it doesn’t work.

However, when I do this to the slider.php page:

if ( ! function_exists( 'business_cast_check_slider_status' ) ) :

	/**
	 * Check status of slider.
	 *
	 * @since 1.0.0
	 *
	 * @param bool $input Slider status.
	 */
	function business_cast_check_slider_status( $input ) {

		$input = false;

		// Slider status.
		$featured_slider_status = business_cast_get_option( 'featured_slider_status' );

		switch ( $featured_slider_status ) {
			case 'home-page':
				if ( ! is_page_template( 'templates/front.php' ) ) {
					$input = true;
				}
				break;

			case 'club-page':
				if (  is_page_template( 'templates/club.php' ) ) {
					$input = true;
				}
				break;

			case 'conference-page':
				if ( ! is_page_template( 'templates/conference.php' ) ) {
					$input = true;
				}
				break;

			case 'edu-page':
				if ( ! is_page_template( 'templates/edu.php' ) ) {
					$input = true;
				}
				break;

			case 'organization-page':
				if ( ! is_page_template( 'templates/org.php' ) ) {
					$input = true;
				}
				break;

			case 'program-page':
				if ( ! is_page_template( 'templates/program.php' ) ) {
					$input = true;
				}
				break;

			case 'research-page':
				if ( ! is_page_template( 'templates/research.php' ) ) {
					$input = true;
				}
				break;

			case 'disabled':
				$input = false;
				break;

			default:
				break;
		}

		return $input;

	}

endif;

The helpers.php page remains the same with:

if ( ! function_exists( 'business_cast_get_featured_slider_content_options' ) ) :

	/**
	 * Returns the featured slider content options.
	 *
	 * @since 1.0.0
	 *
	 * @return array Options array.
	 */
	function business_cast_get_featured_slider_content_options() {
		$choices = array(
			'home-page' => esc_html__( 'Front Page Template', 'business-cast' ),
			'club-page' => esc_html__( 'Club Page Template', 'business-cast-child' ),
			'conference-page' => esc_html__( 'Conference Page Template', 'business-cast-child' ),
			'education-page' => esc_html__( 'Education Page Template', 'business-cast-child' ),
			'organization-page' => esc_html__( 'Organization Page Template', 'business-cast-child' ),
			'program-page' => esc_html__( 'Program Page Template', 'business-cast-child' ),
			'research-page' => esc_html__( 'Research Page Template', 'business-cast-child' ),
			'disabled'  => esc_html__( 'Disabled', 'business-cast' ),
		);
		return $choices;
	}

endif;

I get the slider to appear on all pages of the template that I have created, which creates another problem – the slider then appears on ALL pages, whether it’s been called or not.

Hi @kdickins

Please send us zip of child theme you have created to our email id info(at)axlethemes.com

We will check it and try our best to help you.

Hi @kdickins

You do not need to copy entire slider code on child theme. Remove all the codes you are using to override slider and paste following code on functions.php of your child theme

function business_cast_check_slider_status( $input ) {

	$input = false;

	// Slider status.
	$featured_slider_status = business_cast_get_option( 'featured_slider_status' );

	switch ( $featured_slider_status ) {
		case 'home-page':
			if ( is_page_template( 'templates/front.php' ) || is_page_template( 'templates/club.php' ) || is_page_template( 'templates/conference.php' ) || is_page_template( 'templates/education.php' ) || is_page_template( 'templates/program.php' ) || is_page_template( 'templates/research.php' ) ) {
				$input = true;
			}
			break;

		case 'disabled':
			$input = false;
			break;

		default:
			break;
	}

	return $input;

}
