Adding Homepage Slideshow (Custom Slider)

All of our themes come with the built-in ThinkUpSlider in the main theme options panel. This can be used to add a slider to the homepage of your website. However, if you are using a 3rd party plugin that allows for slideshows to be added using a shortcode, you can choose to replace the ThinkUpSlider with any slider of your choice.

Note: To add a custom slider a 3rd party plugin is required that allows for sliders to be output using a shortcode.

To add a custom slideshow to the top of your homepage please follow the steps below.

  • Go to the Homepage section of theme options panel panel and scroll down to Homepage Slider.
  • Ensure the option for Custom Slider is selected.
  • Add the shortcode for your custom slider to the Homepage Slider Shortcode field.
  • Save the theme options panel to output your custom slider in place of the ThinkUpSlider.
