    Hi X theme!

    Love the theme so far!

    How do you insert X-theme button shortcodes (listed here: http://theme.co/x/demo/integrity/1/shortcodes/buttons/) in a Revolution Slider??

    Many thanks!!!

    PS – I put a button shortcode in a post and followed the instructions here (http://theme.co/x/member/forums/topic/add-a-button-to-a-slider/) but that didn’t lead anywhere.

    How do you add a button shortcode directly into a Revolution Slider?

    Is this possible?

    Thank you.

    Hey Wade,

    you can add it like any other text. Our theme will recognize the shortcode and transform it into the appropriate element. So just copy paste the shortcode text and place it into a text field in Revolution Slider. That’s it! 🙂

    I followed these directions to get a button on my slideshow. It appears on the first slide, but unfortunately the text color of the button is orange rather than the default white.

    How can I fix that?

    Thank you,
    Jared

    I fixed it. I had to update the global styles in the slider editor to change the colors to white.

    Found this very helpful! As I wanted to do the same thing. My question is what if I wanted these buttons to be white and transparent. I used this shortcode and added color=”ffffff” hoping it was that simple but it didn’t do the trick.

    [button type=”transparent” shape=”rounded” size=”jumbo” href=”#example” title=”Example”]Round Button[/button]

    Sorry, just to be clear. I would prefer not to change my global settings because on most of my pages the background is white and I like the buttons how they are. I just would like these specific ones in the slider to be white.

    Thanks in advance.

    Hi there,

    Please update your code to :

    [button type="real" shape="rounded" size="jumbo" href="#example" title="Example" style="color:#000;background-color:#ffffff;"]Round Button[/button]

    Hope it helps.

    Thank you for the reply,

    I was trying to use the transparent button. So when I added your code it did change the colors, however it made the background white as well. However I used your code to figure out my mistake in trying to change the colors. I wasn’t putting the : in the right place.

    I was able to use your layout and set the background to none and the border color to ffffff like shown

    [button type=”transparent” shape=”rounded” size=”jumbo” href=”#example” title=”Example” style=”color:#ffffff;background-color:#none;border-color:#ffffff”]Round Button[/button]

    Now the color is perfect. But for some reason it doesn’t show up as Jumbo, it actually looks more like large. Which is my global settings. Is there a way to override my global settings in this one case since it is just for a slider.

    I’d give you my url but the page isn’t live.

    Thanks again in advance.
