ahhhh brilliant…. thanks, that code helped a lot – i checked that each of the slideshows was working just inserting into the header with
<?php if ( function_exists( 'meteor_slideshow' ) ) { meteor_slideshow( 'veryfood-home' ); } ?>etc and they all worked fine… then i managed to get the function code to call the right slideshow onto the home page with your github code but there’s something wrong with the rest of the if/else statements as the other slideshows don’t appear:<?php if ( is_front_page() ) { if ( function_exists( 'meteor_slideshow' ) ) { meteor_slideshow( 'veryfood-home' ); } elseif ( is_page( 'azienda' )) { meteor_slideshow( 'veryfood-azienda' ); } elseif ( is_page( 'cosafacciamo' )) { meteor_slideshow( 'veryfood-cosa-facciamo' ); } else { //default-fallback if none of the above are true } } ?>And then there’s the other bits i need to do… : )
hmm. i just don’t know enough about php to get this function code to work… I need it to call the 3 slideshows on 3 different pages and then 4 other pages to have different static images, no slideshow, and one page to have no image at all ………….
i think it would help though also if i read what mr leuze wrote properly ??
shortcode works… missed out the double “slideshow”
on to the header function….
ok… so i have re-installed meteor slides, deleted and remade the 3 slideshows (of 6 images each) with slugs like veryfood-home etc, and still no joy – all 3 slideshows are showing the same 6 images although called differently… I am using the shortcode
[meteor_slideshow="veryfood-home"]etc….but i did work out a clue: it seems to be taking the images for all 3 slideshows from the top six images listed in the slides list. I added an image and as it was published last it’s at the top of the list, and lo it’s now the 1st image in all 3 slideshows.I am working on the site locally but will try to get a version on the back of another site if i can….
arghhhh thankyou I didn’t see that at all..! well we’re getting somewhere… Site is back, but still minus the slideshow or header image. Maybe it’s the plugin though – I tried just inserting the shortcode for each one on the relevant page and it just put the same slideshow on every page – I double checked that i’d selected the right slideshow for each image………….
It’s still not working…. I replaced the header.php with a new one, and put the select function back in with php tags and just the slug bit without the full URL….. and it went white. Took the select function section out again and all fine but obviously no slideshow, so is the problem in the function code?
This is it, same as you wrote basically with those little modifications:
<?php function rhl_select_slide_header() { if ( function_exists( 'meteor_slideshow' ) ) { if ( is_page( 'veryfoodEN' ) { meteor_slideshow( "vfhome" ); } elseif ( is_page( 'azienda' ) { meteor_slideshow( "vfazienda" ); } elseif ( is_page( 'cosafacciamo' ) { meteor_slideshow( "vfcosafacciamo" ); } else get_header_image(); //default-fallback if none of the above are true } } ?>what do you think??
yup can see the code, so I already tried putting the php tags around it (I think it’s correct) and then the whole site disappeared…
I’m making a child of twentyeleven. This is the code for my header.php:

I am slowly learning php and wp!!! : )
thanks so much for this….!!
I seem to be missing something though as all of the function text above is all that’s showing in place of the slideshow? Sorry I would show you but i’m using MAMP…
also… not all of the pages will need a slideshow in the header spot. 2 will require a static image like featured image, and one section no image at all (products). Do i just put if/else statements for these other pages too and set what they should be?
oh i have made a menu with pages…
hmmm…. I am very new to this whole wp thing, so although I understand what you mean I have no idea how to do it!
