Hi,

The jssor slider option is in version 12 is great but it seems rather limited. Is there a way to add content? I just want to add one botton to the images to link to a different website page. Is there a way to do this please?

Thanks

Hello again,

I think i have worked out a way to do this with http://imageslidermaker.com/v2

However i'm just a bit confised as when i get the html to add there are two different codes to paste with these instructions:

1. Paste the following into the head of your HTML file:

2. Paste this into the body of your HTML file (at the location where:
you would like your slider to appear in the page):

I understand where i need to paste number 2 code. But can you please help me with number 1 code? Where is the head of my HTML file to pase code 1 please?

O will include the instructions READ ME file

I really appreciate your time in hekping me btw.

Kind regards

Hello Andy,

Code can be added to the HEAD section of any page in WebSite X5 by highlighting that page in the Sitemap in Step 2 (i.e. click on it just once to give it focus), then clicking on the 'Properties' button to the right-hand side of the screen.

In the new window which opens go to the 'Expert' tab, and insert your code in the 'Custom Code' field marked 'Before closing the HEAD tag' (please see the screenshot attached)

Kind regards,

Paul

Thank you so much. 

Just one more question. Is it possible to preview the slider before uploading the site? I have copied the file to the expert tab in the html box under the "files linked to HTML code" section and linked the css and js files. 

However when i preview, it only shows as a grey box. After having worked on the rest of the site some more and previewing many times, it did once (randomly during one preview) show the slider but the image files didn't load. 

Am i doing something wrong. I have added some screenshots to help explain.

Thanks again

Also, would it be better if i paste the css code into the expert tab instead of linking it in the box below or doesn't it make any difference? Am i right to assume doing both is a bad idea? 

Sorry for the constant questions, i'm a digital artist and pretty new to webdesign.

Thanks

Update...

Okay, i had an extra js file linked (my mistake), now i've removed that it does always display the slider in preview but the picture files still dont load. Is there a way to get these to work in preview mode before uploading the site to the internet?

Thanks again
