    Hello,

    I am using the Enfold photography theme. I’d like to have a slider that shows all the thumbnail images for my portfolio of short video clips. I want it to resemble the display on my Vimeo page:
    from Vimeo

    So, ideally, I want a slider that scrolls sideways with all of the thumbnail images visible and uncropped. I want to be able to click on each thumbnail to play the video it is linked in a larger, pop-up light box. I cannot figure out how to do this with the slider templates in my Enfold theme. Am I missing something?? Please steer me in the right direction! Thank you.

    Joe

    Hi Joe!

    Have you tried using Post Slider element?

    I tried using the Post Slider element but it only displays one video at a time. I’d like to have 3 or 4 thumbnail images show with a caption under each, and then appear in a larger window, or lightbox when clicked on to play. I have also tried using the Portfolio Grid feature, but my video images will not load. See the bottom left of the page under the ‘Recent Work’ heading: http://josephbrunette.com/portfolio/ Any other suggestions?

    Thank you!

    Hi!

    Seems you managed to achieve it with columns + images, correct?

    Best regards,

    Thank you for your response. Yes, I resolved the issue with the columns + images. However, I have another problem I am trying to sort out. For a slide show of still images on a different page, I am working with the easy slider feature and I want each image to be the same height when they are displayed in the slider. I resized all of the images in photoshop so that each image has the height of 1000px. I selected ‘No Scaling’ in the drop down menu, yet the images continue to display in different height sizes. I also regenerated my thumbnails, cleared my browser’s (Safari) cache, and did a few hard refreshes, but unfortunately, no success. So then I went into the menu settings of the Easy Slider and changed the image size setting from ‘No Scaling’ to ‘Featured.’ Using the Simple Image Size plug-in, I changed the height setting for ‘Featured’ images to 1000px for all the pictures in the slide show. but still, no success! The height of the images in the slide show varies for each image. I have since removed all the images from the slide show except for two. It can be viewed here: http://josephbrunette.com/blog/ What am I doing wrong? Any other ideas? Thank you so much!

    Hey!

    Try adding this at the very end of your theme / child theme functions.php file:

    function modify_featured_image_size($avia_config) {
          $avia_config['imgSize']['featured'] = array('width'=>1500, 'height'=>1000, 'crop' => true );
          return $avia_config;
    }
    add_filter('avf_modify_thumb_size', 'modify_featured_image_size', 10, 1);

    Remember to regenerate the thumbnails afterwards.

    Cheers!

    Thank you for your prompt reply, Josue. Unfortunately, I screwed something up. I get the following error message for any page I try to load:

    Parse error: syntax error, unexpected ‘&’, expecting ‘]’ in /home2/jdbrunet/public_html/wp-content/themes/enfold/functions.php on line 523

    Apologies for the inconvenience, but can you fix this, or give me further direction?

    Cheers!
