Hi there,

I am using the Ethos Stack have added a revolution slider below the masthead on my blog posts index page here – http://members.carbonmarketinstitute.org/blog/

I would like to add that slider to the individual post pages themselves – http://members.carbonmarketinstitute.org/welcome-to-carbon-exchange/

Whilst not toally in the scope of the theme, I have seen that it is possible to add this in the Global stack, by adding the code from this post – https://community.theme.co/forums/topic/add-revolution-slider-below-masthead-on-individual-post-pages/

I have tried adding some version of the code to my Ethos child theme but it doesn’t work. Is there some part of that code that I can use to get the Blog index page slider on each of the individual ethos post pages?

Thanks,

[Christopher]

+1 for me 😉
I also want to have the possibility to choose and add a (revolution)slider below masthead on an individual postpage (just as it is on regular pages)

Looking forward to a solution for that!

Thanks!

Hi Rob,

I will forward this to our web development team as feature request.

For the meantime you can add this in your child theme’s functions.php file.

function add_slider(){
  if ( is_singular('post') ){ ?>

     echo do_shortcode('[rev_slider alias="agency-home"]');
    
  <?php }
}
add_action('x_after_view_global__slider-below', 'add_slider');

Change [rev_slider alias="agency-home"] with your slider shortcode.

Hope that helps.

Thanks for your very quick reply…awesome!

But your answer doesn’t reflect my wishes 😉 I do not want the same slider on every blogpost, but I want (as in regular pages) to choose for every single post a slider in a meta box.

I found the responsible meta box in x/framework/functions/global/meta/entries.php. Copied that file into childtheme/functions/global/meta/entries.php. I copied the responsible metabox //Sliders section into the x_add_post_meta_boxes section and changed the ‘page’=>’page’ array to ‘page’ =>’post’

Nothing happened in the backend…no possibility to choose a slider. What am I doing wrong?

When I changed entries.php in it’s original location it does work as expected! But now a solution for the childtheme 😉

Hi Rob,

Sorry there is a syntax error in the code I provided above.

We can edit it so you can select which slider to display in each of your post.

Please change the code to this.

function add_slider(){
    global $post;
  if ( is_singular('post') && ($slider =  get_post_meta($post->ID, 'slider_below', true))){       
     echo do_shortcode('[rev_slider alias="'. $slider .'"]');
     }
}
add_action('x_after_view_global__slider-below', 'add_slider');

You can then add a custom field slider_below and add the alias of the slider as the value.
