    I’ve attempted to use the “slider” function but I’m missing something.

    Can you offer a detailed explanation of how to configure sliders or can you point me to a site that uses the slider function so I can see how it’s done?

    Thanks,
    Wayne

    I think I have this figured out.

    It suddenly dawned on me to set a “featured image” on each page I want to appear in the “slider” area. Duh!

    I’ll play with options until I get it the way I want it.

    I’m trying to setup sliders and have an issue turning slider elements on and off.

    I’m trying to remove the Caption/Description and leave the Readmore button. Alternately, is there a way to add a link to the slider? Without the Readmore button there is no navigation option.

    I've turned off the Caption/Description. The Readmore button is enabled but does not appear on slider

    Hi @wstonestreet,

    There is no option to add external link to slider. You can enable or disable read more button which links to detail page.

    Slider are pages so you can either show or hide option to link their detail page or not.

    Thank you.

    Unfortunately, when I disable the Caption/Description, I’m also not getting the Readmore button that would transport the user to the web page.

    Hi @wstonestreet,

    Enable/Disable captions option is for those who want to hide complete texts, buttons and other options of slider and want to show only image slide.

    If you want to hide heading and description please go to Appearance >> Customize >> Additional CSS and add following CSS:

    #main-slider .cycle-caption h3{
        display: none;
    }
    
    #main-slider .cycle-caption .slider-meta p{
        display: none;
    }

    Thank you very much. That helped.

    Now I only have the Readmore button.

    Hi!

    Is it possible to influence the amount of description text shown on the slider?

    Thanks,

    Hi @pbleuland,

    Please go to Appearance >> Customize >> Featured Slider Options >> Slider Elements On/OFF and change value of Slide Caption/Description Length

    You can change the number of words shown for slider description from there.

    Thank you.

    I’d like to limit the physical size of the slider.

    Is there any way to put in size restrictions for the slider display?

    Thanks for any help you can offer.

    Hi @wstonestreet,

    You can control it with CSS to some extent. Please let us know what do you exactly want to do.

    If you can provide us a screenshot of what you want to do and URL of the site, it will be more easier.

    Thank you.

    Hi @nptiwari,

    To make slider’s height half of current size, you need to upload smaller images. Images used in slider are full width images which means theme do not crop image used for slider. So you can control dimension of image yourself.

    Regarding main menu layout change, you can create a child theme and customize theme to look like reference provided.

    Thank you.
