I have a html bootstrap slider which works fine with captions and everything.I would like to integrate it into my Wp theme (my forst one, so total newbie).I found a code, which seems to helo, but it only shows the three pictures and nothing slides…if I hard code the slider, it works.I understand I can just leave it hard coded, but then it’s not really WP 😉 THANKS.
Here is the code:
functions.php – now complete file.
function load_stylesheets()
{
wp_register_style('style', get_template_directory_uri() . '/style.css', array(), 1,'all');
wp_enqueue_style('style');
wp_register_style('bootstrap', get_template_directory_uri() . '/bootstrap-4.1.3-dist/css/bootstrap.min.css', array(), 1,'all');
wp_enqueue_style('bootstrap');
wp_register_style('fixedcss', get_template_directory_uri() . '/css/fixed.css', array(), 1,'all');
wp_enqueue_style('fixedcss');
wp_register_style('custom', get_template_directory_uri() . '/custom.css', array(), 1,'all');
wp_enqueue_style('custom');
}
add_action('wp_enqueue_scripts', 'load_stylesheets');
//load scripts
function load_javascript()
{
wp_register_script('custom', get_template_directory_uri() . '/js/custom.js', 'jquery', 1, true);
wp_enqueue_script('custom');
wp_register_script('bootstrapjs', get_template_directory_uri() . '/bootstrap-4.1.3-dist/js/bootstrap.min.js',array('jquery'), 1 , true);
wp_enqueue_script('bootstrapjs');
}
add_action('wp_enqueue_scripts', 'load_javascript');
// normal menue theme support
add_theme_support('menus');
// register menus, =>__ is improtant for tansaltions!
register_nav_menus
(
array('top-menu' =>__('Top Menu', 'theme')
)
);
//woocommerce theme suport
function customtheme_add_woocommerce_support()
{
add_theme_support( 'woocommerce' );
}
add_action( 'after_setup_theme', 'customtheme_add_woocommerce_support' );
//Images Slider
function themename_slider_home_images_setup($wp_customize)
{
$wp_customize->add_section('home-slider-images', array(
'title' => 'Home Slider',
));
$wp_customize->add_setting('home-slider-first-image');
$wp_customize->add_control(
new WP_Customize_Image_Control(
$wp_customize,
'home-slider-first-image',
array(
'label' => __( 'First Image', 'theme_name' ),
'section' => 'home-slider-images',
'settings' => 'home-slider-first-image'
)
)
);
$wp_customize->add_setting('home-slider-second-image');
$wp_customize->add_control(
new WP_Customize_Image_Control(
$wp_customize,
'home-slider-second-image',
array(

'section' => 'home-slider-images',

)
)
);
$wp_customize->add_setting('home-slider-third-image');
$wp_customize->add_control(
new WP_Customize_Image_Control(
$wp_customize,
'home-slider-third-image',
array(
'label' => __( 'Third Image', 'theme_name' ),
'section' => 'home-slider-images',
'settings' => 'home-slider-third-image'
)
)
);
}
add_action('customize_register', 'themename_slider_home_images_setup');`
