Hello,

since this thread is closed LINK TO CLOSED THREAD and I am relative new to x-theme and wordpress itself (loving it) I really can’t get behind this problem.

The question is the same: How do I place a Revolution Slider between the Topbar and Navbar.

I really don’t know how the instructions given by “Paul R” in the thread placed ahead are working. Is there a way to formulate it more simple? Like every single step to go to (inserting the code) and finishing it (having slider between topper and nabber.)

What I definitely don’t get is: What did he mean with “Create file” and is the following group of words a path to follow?

Thanks for giving everything you give us with the X-Theme, Forum, Facebook Group and Support!

Sincerly,
Robert

Hi there,

Thanks for writing in.

It’s similar regardless of template, just as long as this line

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

is moved between these two lines,

 <?php x_get_view( 'global', '_topbar' ); ?>

    <?php x_get_view( 'global', '_navbar' ); ?>

It should be working 🙂

Cheers!

The thing is: Where do I find those lines?

[Nabeel A]

Hi Robert,

You can find the above lines in wp-header.php file under /x/framework/views/{your stack}/

Cheers!

Hello,

I am actually here in the WordPress.org Dashboard.
Can’t find X, nor framework or views or even my stack (wich is integrity).

There X Addons. But There isn anything with my framework.

In wich menu I have to go?

Sorry for don’t getting it… really.

But thanks for there help already. Please bring me trough this.

Hi there,

Please connect to FTP account and follow our previous replay.
You can ask for FTP credentials from your host provider.

Thanks.

Since when do I have to make anything with my FTP Account or my Host Provider?
I mean this is no offensive but isn’t there a other way to do this trough x, cornerstone or anything other?
Thats what I use X for. Clean and Simple usage. And thats what was given to me. Until now.

Pleas write back still if there is no other option. If there is no other option I have to wait until tomorrow to contact my host support.

Thankfully
Robert

Hi Robert,

Theme level changes will always be done via FTP since WordPress doesn’t show all the files for editing. Regretfully there is no other way to edit the file. You will need to connect via FTP and then start making changes in wp-header.php file.

Since this requires a template change, I’d advise that you setup a child theme. This allows you to make code changes that won’t be overwritten when an X update is released. After your child theme is setup, please review how we recommend making template changes in Customization Best Practices.

Thanks!

[Supervolant]

Thank you very much. Appreciate your time & thought effort into my request.

Have a nice day.

[Nabeel A]

Glad we could help.

Cheers!

Look like my question isn’t finished.

Thought I followed every step the right way.

What I did:

I went on my FTP Server (FileZilla) > Logged In > X-Child > Framework > views > integrity.

Then there are no files in there.
I tried to went on with the search out of this forum. Found a nice thread wich helped a bit. (Already mentioned at the First post in here) https://community.theme.co/forums/topic/place-revolution-slider-between-the-topbar-navbar/

So.. In there I saw this guide:

create file named: wp-header.php > done
insert code:

<?php

// =============================================================================
// VIEWS/INTEGRITY/WP-HEADER.PHP
// -----------------------------------------------------------------------------
// Header output for Integrity.
// =============================================================================

?>

<?php x_get_view( 'global', '_header' ); ?>

  

  <header class="<?php x_masthead_class(); ?>" role="banner">
    <?php x_get_view( 'global', '_topbar' ); ?>
    <?php x_get_view( 'global', '_slider-revolution-above' ); ?>
    <?php x_get_view( 'global', '_navbar' ); ?>
    <?php x_get_view( 'integrity', '_breadcrumbs' ); ?>
  </header>

  <?php x_get_view( 'global', '_slider-revolution-below' ); ?>
  <?php x_get_view( 'integrity', '_landmark-header' ); ?>

done

Uploaded it.

Nothing happens.

Did I oversee something? Or did I have done something wrong?

PS: I ve read your “customization best practice” and have also inserted the code in-between the topbar and nabber code of the original X Theme folder. So I did the overwriting steps.

Thankfully for all your support

Okay could be this step I haven’t done.

But where do I do this:

“You then need to activate the slider above masthead, it will appear between the Topbar & Navbar”

Hopefully you can answer on this 🙂

[Rue Nel]

Hello There,

Thanks for the updates! Please edit the page in Cornerstone and find the Settings > Slider Settings: Above Masthead,
. This is where you assign the slider to you page. Once it is assign, it will show up on the page.

Hope this make sense. Please let us know how it goes.

[Supervolant]

Awesome I am trough it! Love you all.

Love this life!

[Paul R]

Have a great day! 🙂
