Then if that is the case, and since the demo doesn’t do it– it is perhaps the two addl menu items? So, where is the best place to make the adjustment to move up the menu closer to the logo and reduce the spacing between menu items. With that adjusted, it should be the same height as the demo and then have no issue.

Is there any reason that can’t be done?

Thanks!

Thank you, however it didn’t work. 🙁

What happened was my contact info and copright line disappeared, and it added a black space under the swift slider.

What shall I try next? 🙂

Thank you very much,
Alicia

The error was me. Perhaps too much time using smart phones. I was looking for the bars to slide.
Well duh on me, they don’t. You click and they move. Yep I felt a bit silly when I clicked for the heck of it, and it worked. Unfortunately, at times I am the cause of my own issues.

Good morning Ed!

Every single slide option is locked. I can fill things in, but can’t move any of the sliders. I did try with chrome, mozilla, and IE. I still had the same issue.

The only thing I don’t believe I have tried is a reinstall of the plug in. I will try that this evening.. I imagine there is a folder in the theme files for the slider, and I just need to upload that and reinstall. Am I correct?

And if that fails do a fresh install of the theme??

Ah, thought of putting it in a text box. I even tried putting it in a text box. I must have been doing something wrong… as I take it is not just putting the shortcode in there?

Thanks,
Alicia

Also, another question which I forgot to post in the above.

In the area that the slider sits, is it possible for it to have its own background color/background?

Thanks again!

Hi there Ed,
Before I get back into the slider, a parallax question. There is an option to put the stripes over the video/image in the builder. I turn that option on, but nothing happens. I thought I would see an overlay.
Am I mistaken? Is there something else I need to do?

What you said in re the slider, I did do that. It really didn’t quite do the trick. However, I did go through info on the plug in itself, and found how I can add a max width. That seemed to do the trick on the sizing. It seems this plug-in scales where the rev slider takes its dims with no issue. That’s beyond my comprehension at the moment lol…

Even with the dimensions ok, I still have the issue/question of all the other settings. The bars that you can set for responsive or not, for example, do not move. They are locked. I am not sure what I am missing here, as they need to move to turn things on and off. They are locked in the samples or if I add a new slider. I’ve reposted that image to make it easier to discern what I am talking about.

Thanks,
Alicia

Hi Ed,
With it set to 960, I was thinking it should then be 960 px in width, not full screen. This would look somewhat like the layer slider example on the plug in page. That is what I am trying to get. It remains at full screen. Its no issue with the revolution but for some reason with this one, I can’t do it. Also the controls like the very first image of the thread, for responsive etc, all those slider controls– none of them will move. There is no way for me to adjust the settings with it locked that I can see.

Thanks!
Alicia

Good day Ed!
The imported samples I was referring to wasn’t the demo content for the revolution slider. That slider worked like a charm!

I accessed the slider via the dashboard listing, layerslider1 image shows where. I am not quite verse on the descriptive terms for the various parts, so I brought visual aids with me :-). Upon opening it, there was an option to add new or import sample sliders. See layerslider2. I clicked it, and it imported the plug ins demo content sliders, and there was now a list. See layerslider3.

I went into the home landing page and set the id to 2. It did show the slider, but as noted, very very large.

I went into the edit actions from the slider panel, again layerslider3, which brought up my earlier picture of controls, but nothing worked, or changed in the page. I could see the slide image shrinking if I played around with the size, as it did take the typed numerics, however even that made no difference on the page.

Thanks!

Hi Ed,
It has nothing to do with the admin bar. This is a horizontal break, not a vertical cover by the admin bar :-).
If you look at the first set of pics from the actual site you can see its breaking the box and shifting to the right.
The second pic was just from the demo, identifying what header it is.

Thanks,
Alicia

Ah, I think I figured it out in my tinkering. It needs to be set in theme options, and not in the color chooser– is that correct?

Thanks,
Alicia

[aswtmelody]

Thank you Ed!
I did import the theme options, and some were set and some were white, and no graphic on the simple ones. If I changed it in the color chooser it would not change universally.

I reset the theme options to default. I tried to change the color in the color chooser, it would show it being changed, but it wouldn’t save it. Or it would save one, and the rest would remain white.

Between your answers and my playing around with the theme, I’ve managed to knock everything off my first list except this.

Thanks!
Alicia

Good morning Ed,
It’s the standard single.
I have attached a picture.

Thanks!

I did figure out the social icons. That area was blank, and once i put something in there, they appeared.
