Change that..what happens is I end up with the slider in the “main” area under the header-logo, and I can place it in the ” Head” area. I’ve been able to place the slide show everywhere except in the header. Including running (multi) separate faux “headline” tickers in different menu items atm. Following post remarks here and the information provided on the website has been very helpful. I spoke with the theme dev about the issue. Not much help there as he says he’s unfamiliar with your plugin. any insight at all would be very welcome. Even if it’s bad news lol

You won’t be able to add a slideshow to the header using the theme options, those are just for static images. To add a slideshow, you will have to edit the header.php file and add the slideshow template tag:
<?php if ( function_exists( 'meteor_slideshow' ) ) { meteor_slideshow(); } ?>
If you are using a child theme, copy the header.php file from the parent theme to the child and make your changes there. I’m not sure where in the header you want the slideshow, if you wanted it at the very top, you could put the template tag right below line #52:
<div id="head-wrapper">
I’ve have all the various copies of sheets I work on for my Child theme folder, including your Meteor css file for styling/editing. Was hoping you might have seen something I missed. I’m using that option as a logo place holder and need to have different picts/shows for the various pages much like the featured image function on pages. I’m now focusing on your multi-show format as a way to have the different displays. Currently, I see the shortcode mostly in discussion on your site, though there is a topic here that touches on what I’m looking to accomplish now. I need to do a bit more homework on the matter, tinkering with the child header.php to set up multi-shows in those areas – so far it’s the various show sizes I’m having problems with. All shows want to display to the largest show size. No matter what I set the template tag metadata to, or styling in the Meteor.css
Thank you for taking a look at the header .. I’ll be in touch on any current issues if needed. Again – Thanks
I have a tutorial on using multiple slideshows with different sizes that you might find helpful.
