[Plugin: WP Featured Content Slider] Applying plugin to custom post types?

Wondering the same question! After digging through the code, I see MAYBE a possibility for it, but only with creating custom post types yourself and not with a plugin.

Hi!

The answer is a little late, but it might help someone in the future…

I am new in WordPress, but I think I found a solution for this. For my first WP theme I am also using custom post types and this plugin. I looked a little bit in the code of the plugin and I made a few changes:

(in my case, my custom post types are “talleres” and “cursos”)

In content-slider.php in line 116:

original: $args = ... 'post_type' => array('post', 'page'), ...

change: $args = ...'post_type' => array('post', 'page', 'talleres', 'cursos'),...

In featured-content-slider.php in line 60:

I add two more lines for my custom post types:

add_meta_box("feat_slider", "Featured Content Slider Options", "feat_meta", "talleres", "normal", "high");

add_meta_box("feat_slider", "Featured Content Slider Options", "feat_meta", "cursos", "normal", "high");

and in line 82 I add this:

original:
if($post->post_type == "post" || $post->post_type == "page")

change:
if($post->post_type == "post" || $post->post_type == "page" || $post->post_type == "talleres" || $post->post_type == "cursos")

After these changes, it worked fine for me!

I don′t know how to type very well (I still use two fingers) so I hope this effort will be helpful for someone!

Awesome! Thanks

vicdilu Thanks so much for your post, it was a great help for me today.

Hi!

I am glad the post is being helpful!

I have the plugin working fine, but the other day I realized this plugin includes a small advertisement on the footer (on the right side) If you want to remove it, you would have to delete these lines (120 to 130 in the file content-slider.php) This is the code to be deleted:

if (!function_exists('fs_slide_credit')) {

			function fs_slide_credit() {

			    echo '<div class="copy_wrap" style="display: block; margin: 0px; clear: both;"><p style="font-size: 9px; text-align: right; display: block;">Slider by <a style="font-size: 9px; text-align: right;" href="https://www.aesthetic-clinic-med.de/" target="_blank" title="sch?nheitschirurgie">Aesthetic</a></p></div>';

			}

		}

		add_action('wp_footer', 'fs_slide_credit');
