Nivo Slider

Hi anachoreo,

Use:

#slider{display:none}
.home #slider{display:block}

Copy and paste to Custom CSS in your theme options.

See: https://startupwp.com/topic/customizing-your-theme/

Thank You

Can’t think of any reason why it shouldn’t work.

URL please and I’ll have a look (make sure the CSS I provided is still saved to Custom CSS).

Not seeing any Custom CSS in your source code. Did you make sure to check the box at the top of your theme options page to allow Custom Styles?

Hey, no worries, easy to overlook at first glance. We’ll have to consider some sort of warning popup for when a user attempts to adjust a setting that hasn’t been turned on yet. Or better yet, simply make it so that when something is added to an input/textarea that that is what activates the feature.

Listed this for consideration here:

Make sure you’ve read the full instructions here:

You can manually create additional sliders (as many as you want) and then use the shortcodes to add anywhere, directly into posts, pages, text widgets or any of the custom areas directly in your theme options.

Shortcodes look like [something].

If you haven’t yet, you can watch the video on using the slider plugin:

This is the universal slider area. To adjust this will require child theming:

https://startupwp.com/topic/child-theming/

How many sliders are you looking to have and on what pages/page types?

We’ll need to setup a child theme in order to manipulate the header.php code.

1. Setup a child theme: https://startupwp.com/topic/child-theming/

2. Copy over header.php from the parent theme to the child theme.

3. Find this line:

<?php if ( $options['slider'] ){ echo '<div id="slider">'.do_shortcode('[nivoslider slug="slider"]').'</div>'; } ?>

4. Replace with:

<?php
if ( is_home() && $options['slider'] ) {
echo '<div id="slider">'.do_shortcode('[nivoslider slug="slider"]').'</div>'; 
elseif ( is_page(28) ) {
echo '<div id="slider">'.do_shortcode('[nivoslider slug="pro-liability"]').'</div>'; 
}  elseif ( is_page(30) ) {
echo '<div id="slider">'.do_shortcode('[nivoslider slug="gen-liability"]').'</div>'; 
}  elseif ( is_page(83) ) {
echo '<div id="slider">'.do_shortcode('[nivoslider slug="forced-prop"]').'</div>'; 
}  else  {
}
?>

As you can see we’ve prepared the code for the programs you have so far. 28, 30 and 83 correlate to the page’s ID. The slider slugs are a more human-friendly way of indicating what slider it should be.

5. Create the new sliders under the Nivo Slider options with the appropriate slugs.

You can find the license keys in sources/plugins/keys.txt.

This appears to just be an error or perhaps just a cache issue, possibly fixed in a plugin update.

If after the next full StartupPro Package update you still get the nag, let us know. But, you should be good to go on using the plugin without limitation now.

Hey Alex:

I don’t know what the reason or cause was but 24 hours later after first getting those invalid messages it worked.

I just logged into WP and clicked on Activate that plugin and it just start going.

Try again in 24 hours – maybe you’ll have the same result.

Has this issue been resolved? I purchased StartupPro yesterday, tried to apply the license key, and received the invalid license error. I found this discussion and decided to wait before pursuing it any further. However, this afternoon I’m still getting the same message.

Plugins and license keys updated.

Just make sure to re-download the full package for access to the update.
