Opt In Box Full Width

https://www.pubshed.co.uk is my website for reference

By opt in box do you mean your slider?

Does the slider itself have an option to go full width? Currently it’s setting itself to be 1600px wide.

hi tom, no the slider is fine.

underneath the slider i want to add another “section” so to speak with an opt in box and some text in the middle

I’ve got the mailerlite plug in which adds a form to the page, but i want it in a section if that makes sense?

I’ve added the opt in box now as I believe when you saw the page i had removed it.

[mailerlite_form form_id=1]

is the short code

https://www.foodtruckr.com this is a site that has a similar effect that i am trying to achieve

How are you adding the slider?

You’ll want to add the HTML for your opt-in box in the exact same way, just below the slider (I’m assuming).

Let me know ??

The slider is PHP like what you told me before so

add_action( ‘generate_after_header’,’generate_add_homepage_slider’ );
function generate_add_homepage_slider()
{
if ( ! is_front_page() )
return;

echo do_shortcode( ‘[smartslider3 slider=3]’ );

}

So if I wanted the opt in box underneath could i just put

add_action( ‘generate_after_homepage_slider’,’generate_add_optin’ );
function generate_add_optin()
{
if ( ! is_front_page() )
return;

echo do_shortcode( ‘[mailerlite_form form_id=1]’ );

}

Exactly, or bundle the two together:

add_action( 'generate_after_header','generate_add_homepage_slider' );
function generate_add_homepage_slider()
{
    if ( ! is_front_page() )
        return;

    echo do_shortcode( '[smartslider3 slider=3]' );
    echo do_shortcode( '[mailerlite_form form_id=1]' );
}

Wow! My guess-code didn’t work, but your bundling them together did.

Is there an easy way to add some padding via custom css?

never mind i sorted it ??

Awesome ??

tom, i’ve made 3 blocks in the php thingy

is there a way to have one

then a normal section that isn’t full screen

then a full screen section?

like say for example i want the latest posts section back to the normal generatepress layout

but i want the slider section and the opt in section to remain as they are

but i want it in that order

slider

latest posts

opt in

is that possible?

You could try..

add_action( 'generate_after_header','generate_add_homepage_slider' );
function generate_add_homepage_slider()
{
    if ( ! is_front_page() )
        return;

    echo do_shortcode( '[smartslider3 slider=3]' );
}

add_action( 'generate_before_footer','generate_add_homepage_opt' );
function generate_add_homepage_opt()
{
    if ( ! is_front_page() )
        return;

    echo do_shortcode( '[mailerlite_form form_id=1]' );
}
