Slideshow ony in home

Hi Anjuoh, have you tried to add the shortcode to your home page? For example
[sideshow_deploy id='677']

Remember to replace the id number above with your own.

Kind regards

Hi mbrsolution,

this mght sound a little stupid, but what I haven’t been able to find is that Home page where I can add the shortcode.

I am using the Emphaino Theme and my home is a list – showreel of all posts made (kind of a news section, actually); I haven’t been able to find a place to post this.

I thought maybe the solution would be changing the line of the php code and telling wordpress to show the slideshow only in the homepage with this code:

<?php if( is_home() ) { ?>

But didn’t work…

Hi Anjuoh, is your website a full blog? Or do you have a home page in your blog?

Is this your first time using WordPress?

Kind regards

It’s my first time building a web on WordPress, but I’ve been using it for sometime.

I really don’t know how to answer to that. It works similarly to my other website: jkrawietz.com

As you see, there is a main or “home” page where all post entries are listed, and there there are some pages with different information depending on the section.

I would want to show the Slideshow ONLY on that first homepage…

Hi MbrSolution,

actually I managed to do it. I had a wrong line on my php code – I added this one on my Header.php and works like a charm

<?php do_action(‘slideshow_deploy’, ‘xxx’); ?>

Thanks anyway for your help!

best,

Anjuoh

Hi Anjuoh, I don’t know anything about the theme you are using.

Perhaps you should find out how to add a home page in your theme. Once you know how to add a home page then all you have to do is add a shortcode similar to the one I mention above. Once the shortcode is added to your homepage, it will only display on the homepage and no where else.

Kind regards
