Remove the code from where you have put it and place it above this
<div id=”menu”> in your header.php
thanks for getting back to me
Ive looked for the div id menu but dont have it in the header.php though.
Sorry, looked at the wrong header, have a look for this line <nav id=”access” role=”navigation”> and place the code above it.
i have copied and pasted the whole of the header.php on website here is the link. Still having a bit of trouble finding exactly where to put it.
thanks loads for your help as well. hopefuly i can get it sorted 🙂

Do you need the header image to display? If not remove it from Appearance => Header
Where do you want the slider to be i.e. above or below the menu?
I wanted the slider to replace the default header images that you can set from the appearance section on wordpress on all pages UNLESS I select a featured image like I have done on the ‘our products’ page where I want that to over ride the slider. If you get what i mean.
ps. i found where you said to put the <?php if (function_exists(‘easing_slider’)){ easing_slider(); }; ?>
which i have done. But it has shoved the default header image up above it.
Read above…remove it from Appearance => Header
The slider width needs to be reduced to something like 1000px that’s if you haven’t played with the css for that theme.
ah yeah ive played with the width, so can alter that.
BUT when I remove the header in the apperance section of wordpress, It wont let me use featured images on the other pages. Is there a method I can over ride the slider on certain pages?
correction on the above, ive got this in the styles
}
.one-column #page {
max-width: 1000px;
and the header is set to the same. I can alter the width of the header, but when i shrink the page the slider does not shirnk with it and looks terrible.
No…you have to reduce the width of the slider either in css or in the settings.
Is the slider a plugin?
sorry i meant alter the width of the slider in its settings menu,
the slider is a plugin yes, called easing slider.
Remove the header image and the slider looks abit too wide,is it set to 1000px?
So main problem is.
1) If i remove the default image header then I loose the ability to added ‘featured images’ in other pages.
2) When i reduce the size of the browser it does not auto reduce the size of the slider.
All I wanted to do was have a few images on the home page rotating around, but it seems to have turned into a nightmare lol
You will need to find a responsive slider to fix No. 2
To solve No. 1 you might have to create a template that either allows the featured image or just the slider. Having both will look a bit daft.
