Oxygen Slider not working

  • Unknown's avatar

    Hello,

    I have been trying for days and reading every topic possible to get my gallary slider to work but cannot figure it out.

    Is it possible that I deleted it? If so how do I get it back?

    thank you

  • There are a couple of steps to getting a slider working in Oxygen.

    From the support page:

    The Showcase Page template offers a featured slider for up to six Sticky Posts. To use the template, create or edit a page, and assign it to the Showcase Page template from the Page Attributes module. If you’d like use the Showcase Page template on your front page, go to Settings → Reading and set the Front page option to Static Page. Select the page you just assigned the Showcase Page template to as your front page and then choose another page to serve as your blog page.

    Just let me know if you need help at any step.

    The option to select a static page as the front page will only appear once you’ve published at least one page.

    If you set a static page as your front page, you need to assign your posts to a new “placeholder” page called Blog, or whatever you’d like. There’s a full step-by-step guide on how to set that up here:

    so does that mean my post cannot appear below the slider on the same page instead of just in the slider?

  • As long as you choose the Showcase Page template for the page you’re setting as your front page, your recent posts will appear below the slider. The setup looks like this when you’re on the page:

    Posts cannot be displayed both in the slider and in the lists of posts below it – they can only be in one place or the other.

    Let me know if this helps with the setup.
