Slider

Hi Brokawphoto

You need create a ‘slider’ category under “Posts” -> “Categories” and then under “Appearance” -> “ALBAR Settings” -> “Slider Settings” enter the category ID into the “Slider Categories” section.

It will then show all posts linked to that category.

Set the featured image on those posts for them to show as the slider images.

I’m not sure I understand how either, it seems a bit cumbersome. I went to categories and not sure what to put in the slug box…I originally thought the metaslider id went there? Then, I’m not sure where to find the category ID, all I see is count. I just need a static photo there on the front page.

Ok, I’ve created a demo site and a page explaining exactly how to add slides to the slider.

Hope this explains it clearly. please let me know if there’s anything you don’t understand.

Hello,

i have used the instructions as mentioned on the demo site but do have an issue with it.
The category i added is called Slide Posts and the ID =2 , i added this to the settings of the Theme. Then posted new pictures with the Slide Posts category assigned.
Result. The default slider is gone, and none of my new images is shown in the header.
Any other hints. The site i am runinning/building is this one

Looking forward to your feedback.
BTW great theme nice features
