Set custom text in text slides

    Hello,

    I apologies if this topic is covered. The only thread I could find had been [resolved] so i could not add to it, even though the solution there did not help me.

    I am trying to customise the text in the text slides. I have tried using a custom style, but it is not clear where to make alterations. The thread which was closed referred to text I cannot find.

    https://www.ads-software.com/support/topic/slideshow-text-customization-in-description-box?replies=8

    This is the thread. I can’t find the place to make the alterations.

    I got around the issue by setting the text slide (in the slide list (right hand side of page)) to h6 for the description text. I then altered the stylesheet for my theme so that h6 has the correct font size and spacing I want.

    This works great at first. The trouble is that if I make any changes to the slideshow the text reverts back to div…. and not h6. I thought I might be able to change the settings for div…… but I don’t know how to do it.

    Sorry, totally unskilled in programming

    Thanks,

    This first section is similar to the thread that was closed. When it says;

    “Look for the “.slideshow_description” lines in the stylesheet”:

    does that mean you are working in the editor section for the plug-in and changing the php file? or in the custom styles TAB… because I can’t seem to locate that text to edit.

    Hi that is working in the custom style Tab if you have created one.

    Yes I created a custom style as a copy of the Light default style, but there are no “slideshow_description” lines like the ones suggested

    Do you have the latest version of this plugin? Check to see if the the Light Default Style has that class?

    My plug in is up to date. This is what I can find. Am I just missing the obvious? If so sorry!

    Hi Juliefitz in regards to your comment.

    but there are no “slideshow_description” lines like the ones suggested

    I can see those lines in the code you posted above.

    .slideshow_container .slideshow_description { background: #000; width: 100%; }
.slideshow_container .slideshow_description h2 { font-size: 1.3em; text-align: center; }
.slideshow_container .slideshow_description p { text-align: center; }
.slideshow_container .slideshow_description h2 a,
.slideshow_container .slideshow_description p a { color: #fff; }

    Sorry, I know I am a total code fool, but its not like the code shown in the link (above) so I am not sure what I am changing.

    Hi Juliefitz the link above and the code you are showing above is the same. What part of the code do you think is different?

    Hi there,

    Not quite the ‘same’ enough for me I’m afraid …….

    I tried altering the values, but its not working out for me.

    Thanks for your help but I decided to make my own text slides as image slides because I can’t get the versatility i need in the plug-in.

    Hi Juliefitz I understand your option that can also work.

    If you don’t need any more help can you mark this support thread as resolved.

    Thank you
