Second Steps
1. Slides List
Once you’ve created a slider, click the “Edit Slides” button shown in the screenshot below to started creating and editing individual slides.
You’ll then be taken to a page where the slides are listed at the top of the screen, and the first slide is automatically selected and ready to be edited.
- Note #1
In previous versions of the plugin, the first slide needed to be created manually. With 5.0+, the first slide is automatically created by default.
2. Static / Global Layers
back to topA special editor where you can add global content for the slider. This content is slide independent, and will simply be placed on top of your other slides.
3. Manage Current Slide
back to top3.1 Activate or deactivate the slide
If a slide has an “inactive” status, the slide will still exist in the admin, and can still be edited, but will not be shown in the actual slider on the front-end of your site.
3.2 Additional Slide Options
- 1. Duplicate - Create a copy of the current slide.
- 2. Add to Templates - Save the current slide's content and settings as a "Slide Template" for future slides.
- 3. Delete - Delete the current slide.
3.3 Customize Slide Order
When two or more slides exist, change the slide order by moving the slide horizontally with your mouse.
And now the slide is now positioned as the second slide in the slider’s rotation order.
