I have just setup my first wordpress site and I need to be able to add slidedeck 2 in between my menu and content much like you see on alot of websites.
I already have the built in slider that the theme came with but I need to use slidedeck 2 for various reasons.
Here is a picture of what I mean and what I am looking to do: explanation picture
Thanks so much in advance for your help!
you need to open your home page file(may be index or page or template or header) and put below code when you want slidedeck 2:
<?php echo do_shortcode( "[SlideDeck2 id=your_id]" ); ?>
if you need a fully customizable slideshow i reccomend you THIS plugin.
With this plugin you can add slideshows inside pages or posts content with shortcodes like this [slideshow_deploy id='slide_id']
if you want to print your slideshow in some particular position, you can use this function:
echo do_shortcode('[slideshow_deploy id='321']');
use this code inside a page of your theme, ie. header.php or page.php or single.php or wherever you need it,
