Answer 1

1) Use a Filemanager or FTP Client to access your WordPress Install.

2) Navigate to: yourdomain/wp-content/themes/smallbiz/layout/slider

3) Open the “Frontapge.php” file in a text editor of choice.

4) Look for the Slider Controls:

 

Auto

The “Auto” setting controls if the slideshow starts rotating by default or not when the page is loaded.

True = Yes the slider will start rotating by default.

False = The slider will sit and wait at the first slide when the page is loaded.

 

Continuous

The “Continuous” setting controls if the slideshow repeats itself after the last slide has been reached.

True = Yes the slider will repeat after the last slide.

False = The slider will stop after the last slide and will sit at the last image.

 

Numeric

The “Numeric” setting controls if the slide controls at the bottom of the slider show numeric numbers for navigation.

True = Linked Numeric numbers will display under the slider. Click on a Number to move to the slide.

False = The numbers will be replaced with a “Previous” and “Next” link.

Note: The “False” Setting will require the following css change: #homewrap{margin-bottom:30px;} The CSS file is located in the CSS folder of the slider layout.
