Smart Slider behind text on home page, Portfolio theme
3 replies · Started by Andrew on October 6, 2021
Hi Guys
I've started a site using Portfolio theme and would like to put a Smart Slider in where the hero image is on the home page, but can't figure how to achieve this.
Thanks!
Hi Andrew,
The hero section is actually directedly built on the home page, so if you go to the page editor, you can edit it there:

The image is a background image added to the Container block which is highlight in red in the above screenshot.
You can simply remove the background image and Headline block (text), then add the smart slider code to the Container block.
Hope it's helpful :)
Thanks Ying
Fastest support ever!
I noticed it was a background image. I like the text over and image angle shape and thought I may be able to replace the image with a slider. Will I need to replicate these effects in the slider?
Thanks much
Ah if that's the case, it's not possible without custom coding at this moment.
You can try this method with a Header element:

But to get the same layout as the Portfolio hero, will require some CSS and HTML knowledge.
