Image sliders
This page shows how to create the image slider used in the header ———^
Note: a slider is a collection of images organized in slide categories, so we need to create a new category first.
Create a category
Add a slide
Give your slide a title, a short caption, and a description. The description is optional. The description can be set as white text on a dark background or black text on a white background. To choose your setting. Go to Appearance > Theme Options > Slider Settings > Slide description block color.
Clicking on the image will take the user to the link.
Add an image to the slide
Click “Set featured image” to add an image to this slide.
To keep the page from adjusting and resizing to accommodate different image heights, we recommend using images cropped the same way for each category.
Recommended image dimensions:
1000×200 pixels
1000×300 pixels
1000×400 pixels
Add the slider to a page
Select the page that will host the slider.
On the right of the page edit interface will be a block titled “UICNetwork Page Settings.”
Set “Slider” to “on” and choose your Slides Category. In this case, it’s “Campus architecture.”
Adjust slider settings
You can adjust slider settings such type and speed of slider animation from Appearance > Theme Options > Slider Settings. Remember to “Save all Settings” before navigating away from the settings page or you will lose the changes you make.
