    help me please,

    I want to have my header,sidebar and footer lie over my slider page and I’ve tried every which way but loose (the laptop’s nearly gone through the window a few times…

    I take it that I put these lines in

    <?php get_header(); ?>
<?php get_sidebar(); ?>

<?php get_footer(); ?>

    ……..but where exactly in my slider template page

    <?php wp_head(); ?> 

<style type="text/css">
html, body {
width:100%;
height:100%;
margin:0 !important;
padding:0 !important;
}
</style>

</head>

<body bgcolor="#cccccc">

<?php if(have_posts()) : while(have_posts()) : the_post(); the_content(); endwhile; endif; ?>  

</body>
</html>

    any help before I jump off the deep end

    [No bumping. If it’s that urgent, consider hiring someone.]

    What theme are you using? A link to the site would be relevant as well. Also please see:

    you can only see the slider, because every time I add the other elements, it either breaks or is above or below not overlaid on top

    Sorry for your head (and the delay – busy around here)

    Have you asked the theme developer?

    We don’t have access to commercial themes – one reason they aren’t supported here.

    Don’t be sorry, WPyogi. You’re doing a fab job and your level of support is much more frequent than any digital agency I know of. That’s surprising considering you do it for free.

    @bronking, You should appreciate her more.

    Hey don’t get me wrong, believe me I really do appreciate, I’m graphic designer and anytime anyone’s needed help I’ve always been happy to help.

    but I’ve been messing with this for days now and you know how frustrating it can get,

    I asked theme developer the reply was..

    The problem is not with the z-index. Such elements as header, sidebar, etc. are not called in your new template. Please take a look at /dt-chocolate/home.php:

    get_header();
    get_sidebar();

    get_footer();

    Please try to include these functions into your new template or to call it ‘home-[your new template name].php’. For exam
    ple, home-zoomslider.php

    from slider develpoer reply came

    To include the shortcode in a template page,

    For example:
    <?php echo do_shortcode(“[lbg_zoominoutslider settings_id=’1′]”);?>

    neither worked,

    so I apologize for my frustration

    bronking? Please give this a read right now. I’ll wait. 😉

    http://codex.wordpress.org/Forum_Welcome

    You posted test posts for backticks. In addition to being not necessary (really) those get deleted because they do nothing to advance your problem or the conversation here.

    The forum works and please to not post “test” posts.

    Your other post was deleted because when you post just to move your topic up that’s called “bumping”.

    http://codex.wordpress.org/Forum_Welcome#No_Bumping

    Those get deleted also.

    can anybody please offer a suggestion, how I get the sidebar in front of slider

    Sliders tend to either be theme specific or via a plugin. Troubleshooting them really requires access to the theme files. The problem is that that is a commercial theme and we do not support those here for many good and practical reasons.

    http://codex.wordpress.org/Forum_Welcome#Commercial_Products

    I know you’ve posted the question (as you’ve said) to the theme author but what you are asking really is outside of what we support here. On top of that WPyogi went above and beyond to assist you.

    Edit: For the level of customization that you are looking for you may want to seek paid help instead.

    Additional edit (cutting down on coffee): Do not post commercial theme code here either. We have to respect the author of that theme and we won’t permit that code to be posted here wholesale.
