    Hi. I'm wondering if anybody has used or is familiar with a background image slider plugin that's reliable? The header will be transparent, so a regular slider (sitting below the header) won't do.

    If anyone has any ideas I'd appreciate it. I've looked high and low with little luck.

    Thanks.

    What theme are you using?

    The problems not with which slider to use but how to modify the themes CSS so the slider displays full width.

    Something like this? https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rTRlWcf_4Vc

    Yes, what you have there on Youtube is what I'm trying to do, for the most part.

    I'm using Epik for this one.

    Here's where I'm at: http://329.edb.myftpupload.com

    This is the plugin being used: https://wordpress.org/plugins/responsive-full-width-background-slider -- but it's a bit outdated and the developer is long gone, from what I can tell.

    Also looking for better options overall, especially those arrows (like what you have in YouTube).

    Thank you, Brad.
