I’ve reached a point where I just have to give up on this.
Unfortunately the LayerSlider you recommend does not have a parallax effect and the client is insistent on having that effect. If there’s a way to implement that in the LayerSlider, let me know. Otherwise the only option seems to be trying to edit the Fullscreen Slider which does have a parallax effect.
Thanks for the info on the slider files. I’ll let you know if I’m able to figure out how to randomize the Fullscreen Slider.
Are you sure that’s the file that is outputting the content on the home page? Because I just renamed it to “slideshow_fullscreen-off.php” as an experiment and the slider on the home page is still rendering fine.
LOL, I *am* the developer. Do you at least know which file in the theme is outputting the fullscreen slider code? Line 301 in “config-templatebuilder/avia-shortcodes/slideshow.php” had seemed promising because it has an “orderby” parameter within a get_posts() call, but modifying that didn’t change the slide order.
