Slideshow Not Working

Hello jenosullivan,

Hope you’re well! ??

Theme Author use a plugin for the slideshow. As you can see here on the theme’s manual: https://www.template-joomspirit.com/help/wp-spirit-01/manual.html ( I suggest you bookmark this page for reference )

This is the plugin slider he used on the theme and also recommend: https://www.ads-software.com/plugins/ml-slider/

This page might be helpful for you since these are the plugins recommended by the author: https://www.template-joomspirit.com/wordpress/useful-wordpress-plugins

Hope it helps! ??

Take care,
Calvin

I guess I must be daft. I see how to do the plugin and see the short code: [metaslider id=59] BUT… it does not show up in the spot where the theme has it in the demo nor does it have the edges that are step faded with the arrows. Other than putting it into a page or post there is no place in the theme config to place this.

Hello jenosullivan,

Hope you’re well! ??

On the manual search for this section title “How to obtain the Home page of the demo ?”. After I followed that step I successfully replicate the slideshow on the demo page. ??

Hope it helps! ?? Looking forward for your reply! ??

I figured out how to work it based on your first message. I have another question. How do I get the “date, posted by, category, comments” removed from above each post?

I had another question about the slideshow. How do I get it to only play on the homepage? I don’t want it on the other posts or pages when someone clicks on a post or page because it takes up too much room.

Hey there jenosullivan,

Hope you’re well! ??

By selecting the “No Slideshow” template: https://prntscr.com/5us7ym

Looking forward for your reply! ??

Hello,

Forgot to include the solution on how to remove the meta of post.

I suggest you use a child theme https://codex.www.ads-software.com/Child_Themes or use css custom plugin like this: https://www.ads-software.com/plugins/simple-custom-css/ if you will customize your theme.

Add the code in your child theme’s style.css or using the plugin mentioned above.

.meta {
    display: none;
}

Hope it helps! ??

Cheers!

Hello jenosullivan and Calvin,

Hope you’re doing great?

I have the same problem as jenosullivan. I would like to have the slideshow only on the front page, but not on single post pages. I recognized the template when creating pages but I don’t find it when I’m creating posts.

So, here’s my question: where can I select the Template “No slideshow” for posts? ??

Thank you very much for your help ??
Julia

Hey there Julia,

Hope you are well!

Sorry to be the “bad” guy, but can you start your own thread as jumping on other members topics is not allowed.
