    Hello all

    I’m kinda a newbie to this and I need help. I’ve been creating a webpage theme from ground up and I would like to use Meta Slider on the front page, but I can’t get it to work. The slide won’t work no matter what I do, I’ve used these and it won’t work.

    <?php echo do_shortcode(‘[metaslider id=”74″]’); ?>

    [metaslider id=”74″]

    Feels like it’s missing some code from the “functions.php” file, please tell me how can I make this work.

    Thank you

  • Hi @jose36,

    You might just need to use echo do_shortcode(‘[metaslider id=”74″]’);

    It depends on if you are already “inside” the opening and closing php tags

    <?php ?>

    And [metaslider id=”74″] would just go into a standard WordPress post type or widget.

    Let me know if that doesnt work still.

    Thank you for the help, but I was able to solve it with my teachers help.

    He told me that I was missing from my header.php and footer.php these snippets of code and the slider started to work just fine.

    <?php wp_head(); ?>

    <?php wp_footer(); ?>

    That way the slider could do it’s own JQuerry stuff

    Hi @jose36,

    Glad you got it working! Yeah leaving those out will cause some issues ??
