    I am attempting to build the same (boxed) layout as the Supreme homepage demo (found here: http://themes.swiftpsd.com/supreme/) using the Page Builder.

    However, instead of using the default slider, I want to use the Revolution slider in it’s place.

    With my attempts, it appears that the layout cannot be reproduced without some conflicts:

    1. There is some spacing/padding between the Post Ticker and the Revolution Slider. As you can see in the demo, there is appears to be no spacing between the Post Ticker and Default Slider. How can spacing between these two elements be eliminated when using the Revolution Slider (assuming the created Revolution slider element is sized similarly to match the default slider in a boxed layout)? Note: The Revolution slider dimensions I am using are 960×445)

    I noticed spacing on the left and right of the Revolution slider as well however it appears that can be “blended” together to look seamless by using the same background color within the slider as the homepage (?)

    2. Using Page Builder, when a  (right-position) sidebar is added to a page with a Revolution slider element, much of the Sidebar area is truncated (cut-off) by the Revolution Slider (960×445) thereby obstructing some of the widgets.

    Essentially, what I am asking is if and how the exact layout of the Supreme Demo homepage can be reproduced using the Revolution Slider instead of the default slider?

    Resolved: Anyone new to the theme that has the same question: After you install the Revolution Slider, you can indeed specify the name of the slider you want displayed in the “slider” area of any given page. In my case, I wanted a Revolution slider I built to be displayed in the exact spot and position as it is on the Supreme Demo (the homepage).

    There are two slider types (Default Slider and the Revolution Slider). You will see options for either in the wordpress admin. The default slider is great for handling images and posts. The Revolution Slider is great for heavy animation and more ‘dynamic’ slides.

    When you build a page, you can specify the name of the slider  you want from either of the slider types. You can find this option under “Page Meta” > Page Options when you’re creating/building/editing any given page.

    If you want the default slider (for images or posts) then click the “Show Posts Sliders” box and specify the name and/or categories you want to include within that slider. The slider will be displayed at the top of the page. It even says below the check box, “Show the posts slider at the top of the page.”

    If you instead want to display a Revolution Slider that you’ve built, be sure the “Show Posts Slider” check box is unchecked then specify the name/alias of the Revolution Slider that you want to use within the field called “Revolution Slider Alias” which is just a few fields below “Show Posts Slider” – Update Page and then you’re done!

    Also, note that if you want a Revolution Slider to appear as it does on the demo homepage (“at the top of the page”) you do not have to add it as an element via the Page Builder. Again, you setup the slider as I’ve outlined in the above posts 🙂
