Hi,

If you're using Customize to config the homepage, you can use "Penci Slider" to add custom slider like that.

Please do following steps:

1/ Make sure you've installed & activated plugin "Penci Slider" - if not, go to Appearance > Install Plugins > install & activate plugin "Penci Slider"

2/ Go to Dashboard > Penci Slider > add new > and add your slides there. ( each add new is one slide )

3/ Go to Customize > Featured Slider Options > on "Featured Slider Style" select "Penci Slider Style 1" or "Penci Slider Style 2".

You can check options for "Penci Slider" on  Customize > "Featured Slider Options" also

Best Regards,

PenciDesign

Hi. I have installed the Soledad theme Craft DIY with no problems.  However I would like to add an element of design from another theme and I can't work out how to do that - hopefully it is possible.

I would like to add a static banner or a slider set up directly below the header and category bar that is not  linked to a blog post like the current set up.

Something like what I see in the Dental Clinic, Icecream, or Health Coach theme Demos.

Then I would have my blog posts start below this banner.

Can you please let me know how I go about adding this in here?

My blog is not live yet as I'm just building it - But it is pretty much still as the Craft DIY setup with my logo and categories changed  - so I don't know if you will need my password.

Much appreciated!
