full width slider

I wondered if there is a way to make a slider on the home page outside of the Container? My client really wants to have the slider bleed to the edges of the browser window. I have looked around in the theme and I don't see anyway of doing that. I have a couple of slider plugins already already on the site and I just used Meta Slider as a quick sample to show her the design. I also have access to Slider Revolution which might work since she wants to have text overprint the photos. I don't want to go through the trouble of setting up Slider Revolution if we can't get it outside the container.
Hi there,
Try using the After Header Hook:
http://demo.generatepress.com/hook-locations/
https://docs.generatepress.com/article/hooks-overview/
With conditional tag assuming you are using a static home page:
<?php if ( is_front_page() ) : ?>
slider shortcode here
<?php endif; ?>Thanks for getting back. I was wondering if the After Header Hook would interfere with the navigation bar that is after the header. Would it work to use the "Before Content" hook or will the After Header hook still work?
Thanks!
You should be fine with After Header. Give it a shot and let me know if you run into problems.
Thanks, I will let you know if I have any problems.
