    Hi there,

    I would like to add an ALS to the top of my blog page and have the same one above all individual blog posts.

    I would also like the blog page and individual posts to have a side bar which starts below the slider.

    Basically I would like to mimic this blog which I am currently rebuilding with your theme:
    http://scotiafishing.com/scotland-fishing-blog/

    Can you help please?

    Hi Peatkay!

    What exactly do you need help with? Also, do you have a link for the page in question?

    Best regards,

    Hi I would like the blog main page to have a slider at the top, and the same slider to be present at the top of each post.
    This is the page in question:
    http://staging.scotiafishing.com/scotland-fishing-blog/
    and I would like it to act like this:
    http://scotiafishing.com/scotland-fishing-blog/

    Thanks

    Hey!

    Please go to Enfold theme options > Blog Layout and choose “Use the advance layout editor to build your own blog layout (simply edit the page you have chosen in Enfold->Theme Options as a blog page)” as Blog Style and create you blog page like creating any other page using ALB.
    And activate ALB on blog posts using this code – http://kriesi.at/documentation/enfold/use-the-layout-builder-with-any-post-type/

    Hi,

    This would mean that I would have to add the slider in individually to each post.

    Is there not a php file that I could add a shortcode line to (maybe “single.php”), just to display the same slider at the top of each post? If so, what would I put in the php file?

    Could I do the same with the main blog page? When I do what you suggest above it puts the slider into a box so it is smaller than on every other bags on the site. Which is the php file that controls the main blog page? I like the current layout, I just want the full width sider at the top.

    (just as a reminder: This is the page in question:
    http://staging.scotiafishing.com/scotland-fishing-blog/

    and I would like it to act like this:
    http://scotiafishing.com/scotland-fishing-blog/ )

    Thanks

    Hi!

    Edit the single.php file then add a do_shortcode function (http://codex.wordpress.org/Function_Reference/do_shortcode). Generate the shortcode using the shortcode wand. Use the full width slider or image shortcode.

    Hi there I tried adding the following code:
    echo do_shortcode(‘[layerslider id=”3″]’);

    Directly after “get_header();” and it is exactly where I want the slider, but it is just displaying the short code on screen. Please see here:
    http://staging.scotiafishing.com/chasing-silver-front-cover-boy/

    I’m not sure what to try next…

    Hey!

    Unfortunately, you can’t use the layer slider shortcode because it is disabled by theme. Use the theme’s default slider shortcode (fullwidth slider, fullscreen slider, easy slider etc).

    Hi there, what is that short code, and where do I edit the specific slider please? I can’t find anything about it in the documentation.

    I found a post that explains to use this code, and it is now displaying a blank space where the slider should be, but I’m not sure how to edit a slider for it…
    echo do_shortcode(‘[av_layerslider id=”1″]’);

    Thanks

    Hi!

    Alright. Try to switch the builder to debug mode: http://kriesi.at/documentation/enfold/enable-advanced-layout-builder-debug/

    Create a temporary page to generate the shortcodes by using the advance layout builder. You’ll see the actual shortcode below the builder as described in the documentation. You can use that shortcode as the do_shortcode content.

    Cheers!

    Thanks – I’ve done that, but it still returns a blank space where the slider should be.

    Here’s an example:

    Thanks for your help so far on this! It’s really important that I get this fixed!

    Hey!

    Please use any other slider shortcode except for the layer slider. The layer slider will only work with the advance layout builder.

    Hi – I’ve tried all the other sliders and even just an image, but they all return an error. The shortcodes are just too complicated.

    This is the shortcode to insert a full width slider:
    [av_slideshow_full size='featured' stretch='' animation='slide' autoplay='false' interval='5' control_layout='av-control-default' src='' attachment='' attachment_size='' position='top left' repeat='no-repeat' attach='scroll']
    [av_slide_full slide_type='image' id='4117' video='' mobile_image='' video_format='' video_ratio='' title='' custom_title_size='' custom_content_size='' caption_pos='caption_right caption_right_framed caption_framed' link_apply='' link='lightbox' link_target='' button_label='' button_color='light' link1='manually,http://' link_target1='' button_label2='' button_color2='light' link2='manually,http://' link_target2='' font_color='' custom_title='' custom_content=''][/av_slide_full]
    [/av_slideshow_full]

    All I want to do is display 1 large image at the top to ever post. I do keep trying what you suggest, but it never works. Is there any chance you could tell me the exact shortcode I need to use please?

    When I have done that I would also like that same image to be at the top of the main blog page (which is the php file I edit for that?

    Thanks

    Hey!

    The [/av_slideshow_full] is duplicated. I tested the full screen slider on my installation and it works fine:

    echo do_shortcode("[av_fullscreen size='extra_large' animation='slide' autoplay='false' interval='5' control_layout='' custom_class='']
    [av_fullscreen_slide id='43'][/av_fullscreen_slide]
    [av_fullscreen_slide id='44'][/av_fullscreen_slide]
    [/av_fullscreen]");
    

    Please post the login details here. We would like to check it.

    Best regards,
    Ismael

    Hi that’s brilliant. Thank you very much.

    My final question is which php file do I also add this to to have the same thing happen on the blog main page?

    Thanks

    Pete

    Hey!

    Did you build the blog page using the advance layout builder or did you set the Blog Style to use the advance layout builder? Add it directly using the advance layout builder.

    Cheers!
    Ismael
