image wont upload to slider for static page

  • Hi, I am a newbie and I am in a bit of a pickle. I have uploaded a royalty free photo I wanted to use as part of my home page and it appears after following the steps from someone who has used the program a couple of years ago to create, it won’t tie the image to the page here is what I did, went to Home Slider and selected my image and notated in the caption as well as the button text, clicked update and nothing still has appeared. Looking for a video tutorial or step by step process.

    Thank you

  • Perhaps I’m missing something – I’m not quite clear on how you’re uploading the ‘home slider’. Could you point me at which theme you’re using, and the specific steps you’re taking to apply the image?

    (ignore this – I forgot to click the follow-up emails box so I have to snd up a new post to catch replies ??

    Ok Sorry for the confusion. I’ll walk you through my newbie version. I am using the salient theme. So I’ve downloaded and uploaded the photo to my word press media folder, after creating a home page and adding content, I wanted to create a static page so that the image could be placed on the home page and as you slide up and down the scroll side bar you could see the image and my content below. Now the way I was attempting to add the image was I went to home slider -add new-uploaded the image that I had previously downloaded- created my call to action (added text in the caption and button fields)-and then save draft and publish. Voila!! nothing shows up. here is my url protectandinsuremylife.com

    Thanks for the update @reed1256

    It’s tough to say, exactly, what the issue might be – I don’t have the cash to drop on purchase of the theme at the moment. It may be worth reaching out to the support people about for the salient theme about your issue, btw, if you paid for it it comes with 6 months support from themenuclear.

    Still, there’s a couple of things to verify that I found after some googlin’ from the official documenation for the theme and its intended use: https://themenectar.com/docs/salient.pdf

    1. From the manual:

    Home Slider – Allows for a quick slider to be automatically placed at the top of the home page (as long as a home template is selected in the page attributes box.)

    2. Video Tutorial Series! https://www.youtube.com/user/ThemeNectar

    Apparently, there are some videos about using the slider here.

    That’s about all I can suggest without being an admin of the site to see the problem for myself, or otherwise be able to reproduce the issue on my own machine. Hope this info helps, let me know if I can answer any other questions that might help you track the main answer down.
