Infinity Pro Front Page Image 1 – slider

[shango]

Hi to the group.

I'm trying to customize Infinity pro with a slider instead of the static background image in .front-page-1. I still want to use the text widget for the foreground text.
Any suggestions on a nice clean way to do this would be helpful. Thanks in advance.

Ok, so the simple answer is this.

Manually install this plugin.

Remove your current front page 1 image via the customizer.

Then add, via customer, your 3 slideshow pics to the backstretch plugin.
In the plugin settings, use .front-page-1 for the container.

Is there a way to increase the number of slides from three to seven?

1. Only if you modify the code in the plugin as there's no filters built in at present.

Or

2. A more flexible solution would be to use the Backstretch script directly in your child theme and add unlimited images directly in your theme.

I will write a tutorial about how to do this shortly for anyone that likes this option.
