    Hi there,
    I love the Olsen theme and am just setting up Olsen light on my website.
    I’d like to have the front page carousel scrolling through my posts at the top, with some other content underneath (instead of my blog posts underneath). Is this possible?

    At the moment, I can’t figure out how I can have a static front page with the carousel working….

    Many thanks

  • Hi there,
    Locate inside your header.php this

    
<?php if ( is_home() ) {

    and change it to

    <?php if ( is_front_page() ) {

    This will show your slider in a Static Page (as frontpage)
    Try the default editor and navigate to the /themes/olsenlight/ folder to find the file.

    Hello,

    Thanks so much for your message. I’ve just tried to make the change in editor, but for some reason it came up with this message, any ideas how I can rectify it?

    “Unable to communicate back with site to check for fatal errors, so the PHP change was reverted. You will need to upload your PHP file change by some other means, such as by using SFTP.”

    Many thanks.

    Hi there,
    your Hosting Provider has disabled this feature, probably for security reasons.
    Try editing the file using your cPanel file manager or with an FTP application like Filezilla. Your hosting provider can help you setup and FTP account to access your site.

    It looks great, thank you.

    Glad I could help!
    I’d like to ask you, if you like the theme and could take a minute to review it here it would help us a lot!
