Hey guys…
I probably say it too much, but again…thank you for all you help in helping me customize my site.
I think for the most part I’m just about there, but there is ONE issue (that is pretty major) that I just can’t seem to get around and I’m really hoping you guys might be able to give me some ideas or share a little insight into what I could do.
I’m needing my slider to preview some of the recent projects we’ve done and being that this needs to look good on:
Desktop: http://ericrussellphotography.com/images/Slider-Desktop.jpg
Tablet: http://www.ericrussellphotography.com/images/Slider-Tablet.jpg
Smarthones: http://www.ericrussellphotography.com/images/Slider-Smartphone.jpgI’ve really tried to keep the design simple. You can see what I’m thinking for each platform by clicking the image links above to see.
After hours of working on this I’m realizing the following:
1) While the new WP slider is now much better it sounds like it does NOT go full height (you can only enter in a pixel value) which makes it impossible to have a full screen image (which I think at a minimum should be possible).
2) To my knowledge, you cannot add an image to the full width sliders so that does not seem to be an option
3) Even if I could make the wp slider work in generally getting the elements in place, I’m struggling with how the Advanced Layer slider scales text.
Currently I’m forced to use the Revolution Slider to get it at least full screen, but as i’ve read the REV slider is not supported by the theme.
Anyways, I would really hope that with keeping this simple what I’d like to do is possible within the theme and WP layer slider that comes with the theme. Any help would be so appreciated and as always THANK YOU for a great theme and all the great support guys!
Hey erussell!
Thank you for using Enfold.
You can use the Fullscreen Slider. Add html codes or text on the images’ caption field.

I’m not very proficient at html but this is what I’ve done so far and happy with the way the template responsive functionality is handling all the content:

Ut wisi enim ad minim veniam, quis nostrud exerci tation ullamcorper suscipit lobortis nisl ut aliquip ex ea commodo consequat.</p> <br><br> <img src="http://laurenkruseproducer.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/04/kalifornia-jean-bar-client-logo3.png" alt="kalifornia-jean-bar-client-logo" width="150" height="80" class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-492" />A couple quick questions:
1) Obviously I cannot add content boxes…. Is there a way I can limit the width of the smaller paragraph text?
2) The image (a 500px wide .png) is not scaling down even though I have specified that it be 150 x 80.Hey!
Thank you for the update.
We would like to see the actual page where you’re testing this. Please post it here.

Hi!
Thank you for the link. You can use html tags inside the caption field. Something like this:
<div class="caption-box-half">Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet, consectetuer adipiscing elit, sed diam nonummy nibh euismod tincidunt ut laoreet dolore magna aliquam erat volutpat. Ut wisi enim ad minim veniam, quis nostrud exerci tation ullamcorper suscipit lobortis nisl ut aliquip ex ea commodo consequat.</div>Use the new div’s class on Quick or custom.css:
.caption-box-half { width: 50%; margin: 0 auto; }Best regards,
Ismael
