Hi,

I haven’t done anything other than updates the suggested ones. After the update process there are no more sliders to be seen.

What strikes me is that the page source-code called from Firefox does not contain any slider-code.

I checked the following:

1. The Revolution Slider (version 4.6) is activated in the Plugins-section.
2. The Revolution Slider “global settings” seem to be ok.
3. The page definition clearly states “header_slider” to be used in “Below Masthead”.
4. A slider named “header_slider” does exist in the ComboBox “Below Masthead”.
5. A slider named “header_slider” is listed in the list of Revolution Sliders in it’s section of the dashboard.
6. I turned all plugins off except X-Shortcodes (as it cannot be turned off) and Revolution Slider (which I want to be using).

When I switched from my child theme to X itself the Sliders are visible. What’s happening?

Please help me get this fixed asap. Thank you!

Kind regards,
Andreas

Hi!

The solution to this problem was: You have changed the code for calling the slider.

In wp-header.php you used to call the slider by:

  <?php x_get_view( 'global', '_slider-revolution-above' ); ?>
  <?php x_get_view( 'global', '_slider-revolution-below' ); ?>

Now, in this new version 3.0.1 of X the call has changed to:

  <?php x_get_view( 'global', '_slider-above' ); ?>
  <?php x_get_view( 'global', '_slider-below' ); ?>

Hope you won’t start changing this again. 😉

Kind regards,
Andreas

Hey there,

That was changed on V3.0.0 of X. The change was for simpler namespacing. Please see https://theme.co/x/member/changelog/ for more changes. We recommend that you always refer to our Changelog every time there is an update because we do change things for optimization. WordPress core, WooCommerce and other themes and plugins company also do this so we need to keep track of the changes all the time.

Thanks.

hi,
i have the same problem but after looking up in wp-header.php i realized they are already called:

<?php x_get_view( ‘global’, ‘_slider-above’ ); ?>
<?php x_get_view( ‘global’, ‘_slider-below’ ); ?>

what can i do to show my home slider like it was before? i still can see it when i go in revolution slider tab in my dashboard, but it just shows as a blank image when we view the page.

thanks

hey, i found the issue.

i went on the jetpack page and deactivated “photon” extension under ‘security and performance’.
for some reason there was a conflict somewhere under the hood.

cheers!

Hi there,

Yes, Caching always could affect site’s functionality since it doesn’t serve changes and updated files in real time. Photon is just like other caching plugin.

Glad it works no, cheers!

Hi!
I accidently deleted my home page name. And my slider disappeared. I rename it as used to be but still no slider. How can I restore my slider back. I have no idea. Please help. My website is under construction now. I will send all info privately.

Thank you!

Hi,

You can activate it again under slider settings in edit page.

I have no idea where your slider used to be but you can enable either slider above masthead or slider below masthead.

Hope that helps.

[ukatumurParticipant]

Yay! I got my slider back! Thank you very much!
