  I have been trying for hours to get my revslides as the header of my homepage but I have not been sucessful. I have tried the following codes in the theme header.php and and the index.php:

  <?php putRevSlider(‘slider1’, ‘2,10’); ?>

  <?php echo do_shortcode(“[rev_slider alias=”slider1″]”); ?>

  <?php
  echo do_shortcode(“[metaslider id=65]”);
  ?>

  and other variations of the sort but nothing seems to help.

  Does anyone know how to fix this?

  Thanks

  Hi there,

  There are two different versions of WordPress. These forums only provide support for sites hosted here at WordPress.com.

  If you need help modifying Shoreditch on a self-hosted site, please try posting at:

  https://wordpress.org/support/theme/shoreditch

  To learn about the differences between the two versions of WordPress (.com vs.org), please see this guide.

  Thanks :)

  Hi annabijlsma – I see that you’ve clarified that you’re actually asking about a site hosted here on WordPress.com, not a site running on separate hosting.

  While it’s not possible to add the RevSlider plugin here, we do have a number of themes with a built-in slider, which you can see here:

  Perhaps Dara would fit the bill:

  If you need any help selecting one, just let us know.

  I’m reopening this thread because I’d like you to confirm which site you need help with. :) Gary & David asked you to clarify that in your other thread, but we haven’t yet heard back from you. Please let us know and we’ll take it from there.

  Looks like your self-hosted site at http://citytrip-boedapest.nl/ is running a theme called Unified, whereas your WordPress.com site is running Shoreditch. https://citytripboedapest.wordpress.com/

  Hi!

  Thanks for your help. I was not able to put the revslide in the header with the shoreditch theme. I have managed to do that in the Unified theme. There are two different websites as i have switched hosts due to SEO possibilities.

  Thanks again for your help!

  Thanks for clarifying, Annabelle – and sorry for the confusion.

  If you ever decide to give Shoreditch another try, we’d be glad to look at helping with the slider over on WordPress.org.
