    Hi
    I’m sorry to ask a question that has been asked in the forum, but I find no answer

    As the title says, I’m trying to include a layerSlider in the header
    To do so,
    I’ve installed the layerSlider WP plugin and create a new slider (ID 5)
    I’ve copied the helper-main-menu.php in my child theme (in includes/helper-main-menu.php)

    I’ve add below this code
    /* * Hook that can be used for plugins and theme extension/* (line 149)
    These line
    <div id="sliderheader"><?php echo do_shortcode("[av_layerslider id='5']"); ?> </div>
    But it display an empty and blank space (as the slider #5 exists)

    <div id="sliderheader"><?php echo do_shortcode("[layerslider id='5']"); ?> </div>
    But it display the shorcode in itself as e text (i.e [layerslider id=’5′] , and nothing esle

    header

    What should I do to display the slider ?

    Many thanks

    Hey Ikyo!

    I don’t think you’ll be able to use do_shortcode with the LayerSlider.

    And the reason the shortcode is displaying is because you need to use [av_layerslider id='5'].

    Also, if you have the LayerSlider installed as a plugin then it would be best to deactivate that. We already include it in the theme files.

    Best regards,
    Elliott

    Thanks for your Answer Elliott
    The only code you gave me doesn’t works in the header

    But whenever i’m adding the following code
    <div id="slideraccueil"><?php echo do_shortcode("[av_layerslider id='5']"); ?> </div>
    in includes/helper-main-menu.php
    AND
    `[av_layerslider id=’5′].’ in a page
    It’s working

    The problem is I want the slider in every header of every page of the site…and it will be meaningless if I add it manually in each part of my site

    What should I do ?
    Thanks for your precious help and your powerful support

    Thanks !

    Hi!

    Yeah I don’t think that’s going to work. It’s probably going to take a lot of layout changes. It would be best to hire a freelancer to help you out with this customization.
