Having the same problem–were you able to find a fix?

If you go into the page that you want to have a corresponding graphic for, you can just add the image on the right hand side, and click the “add to carousel” checkbox. I am wanting to do the same thing that you are doing, but I do not know how to make it link to a page yet. I hope someone knows how.

No

Hello guys, I had the same problem and don’t quite understand Birkin92’s response. Can you clarify? I am the admin of the site, so if that is what you are saying, I’m still not sure what to do here. Having the same problem TrafficSignalGuy is describing.
Thanks for any further info!

Same thing is happening to me — what did you get to work?

For those of you that want to use this theme, and not have the slider on all pages, you can use the feature known as “conditions” and use this code to make this work.

<style type=”text/css”>
.head-img { display:none; }
</style>

I know I am late to the convo here, but I was just figuring this out and figured that I would share that info.

Just wanted to say thanks for all the support on this, Widget Logic worked great + I was able to edit the submenu colors as well! Thanks again.

Hello again, I wanted to say thanks for the help you’ve given so far on this. I have made some progress and the site is coming along nicely. I had another question for you. Is there a way to have the slider active on the home page ONLY (when using Widgetkit to activate a slider)? Or, does that have to be done using the Advanced Text Widget? You had said this before up in your first response to me, but when I tried to use that one I wasn’t sure what to do with it and it was talking about PHP code which is over my head. I was hoping there was a way to disable the slider on select pages some other way.
Also, one other thing, can you tell me where in the CSS code I can modify the default color that is in the drop-down menu backgrounds? It is that blue color, and the “hover” color on the drop downs is a lighter blue. I’m having trouble locating that in the stylesheets for some reason. Thank you!

Ah, I see. I was thinking that the Lite Version had the slider functions built in, but you are saying that you have to add a plug-in or widget slider in order to do that, right?
Let me ask this, if I was to purchase the Pro version of “Preference” does it already have that slider functionality? I am just trying to decide how much time I have on my hands to dig into the more complicated issues. I love the look of the theme though and would like to take advantage of using it for this site b/c I think it would work well.

I wish I could but the site isn’t live yet. I have an under construction page up now so it’s not going to be visible to you. I am making some progress however. I was able to add an image using the default text widget. I used the code you gave me and then I plugged in my URL for the image and the only thing I did different this time was I pre-cropped the image to 1170 wide. Not sure if that did the trick, or if was just doing something wrong before, but I’m not worried about that anymore I don’t think! The next challenge I’ve seen is now I am not sure how to add multiple “slides” and how to add the cool forward/backward buttons on them, as well as captions to the slides. (Kind of like the ones on the model site have.) I didn’t see anything about how to do that in the user guides. Is that something you can tell me about? Also, is there a way to make these slides “clickable” or link to a specific page once loaded into the slide area?
I’m gonna go ahead and give you the link to the site even though it’s got the under construction page up. TheAcademyAtWellSpring.com

I attempted just using the normal text widget, as well as the Advanced one. In both scenarios I used the sample code you gave me “<img src=”path-to-image” alt=”description” />” — and I placed in my specific image URL. The result was that same bit of code appearing in the site, directly above the image slider/header area. I have a header image uploaded and in use, so that simple line of code was just sitting right on top of that image. I feel like there must be something simple I am doing wrong. If you have any ideas, I’m still tinkering with it and I’d love to hear what you think.

Thank you so much for the quick response. I now see that there is a “Showcase Header” option within the widget area. I am a bit confused about what to do with it though. How do I literally “load” my images into that widget area? Do I have to do it with the Text Widget and just use html to pull from my media? Thanks for clarifying this for me!
