Smart Slider 3 not showing in custom page template

    I created a custom page template with the intent of including a full width element background and putting the slider on top of that. I’m embedding the shortcode and it is not showing up. The slider shortcode works when I just include it in the pagecontent area but is NOT working within the custom page template.

    Thanks,

    I figured it out, you can only embed the slider once in the page otherwise it won’t load. I removed the embed from the testing I was doing in the page content and added it to the template contente and it worked like a charm.

    Thanks -Nate

    Hi @nheels

    Yes, this is a limitation of Smart Slider 3, that one slider can only be displayed once per page:

    since our slider works with unique HTML IDs, and if you use the same slider twice or more, then those IDs won’t be unique anymore, which will cause problems for the JavaScript codes which should target the unique elements.

    Either way, I am glad you managed to find this out already! ??
    If you have further questions just let us know!

    Best regards,
    Laszlo.
