Replace Genesis Responsive Slider

[wildspiritdesigns]

I am using the Outreach  theme and am having issues with the Genesis Responsive Slider that I haven't been able to resolve for over a month now and I'm fed up. There is more of a white boarder on the right side than the left side.

Secondly, my client would now like to feature pages AND posts which doesn't look possible with this slider.

Is there another slider type plugin someone recommends? I know some PHP but would need some direction in how to replace this in the functions and home.php

If there is already a post on this, please point me that way. I searched in the forums here but didn't see anything for either of my two problems. The search feature doesn't seem as good as the old forum.

Thanks in advance,

It's just a widget so you need to find a slider plugin that has a widget you can use. There are a ton of options available here http://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/search.php?q=slider

Found another plugin called flexible slider but it is giving me the same issue as the genesis responsive slider, there is more white space on the right hand side. I've looked at me CSS with Firebug and read forums (new and old) and can not get it to change.

Highly frustrated!

@wildspiritdesigns for the extra white space around the slider, look for this in your Style.css. Change 100% to 98%. There were several issues I found using Outreach and this was the first one. This should fix it for any slider you choose.

.full-width-content #content, .full-width-content.outreach-landing #content {
width: 98%;
}

Are you have any other issues with Outreach?

Thanks! That seems to help. I have a few other issues with Outreach, like when you make the page smaller there is a huge gap that forms between the bottom of the header and the top of the nav, but over all I like the layout of it. I probably won't be using again anytime soon as I think there may be a few bugs that need to be worked out. I love genesis and the child themes but have never had as many issues as I've had with this new version of Outreach!

Thanks for the help,

Lyle

Don't give up. I agree that this version of Outreach has been a challenge. There are others having problems to. But let's try to work out the kinks.

As for the grey area - that under the * Responsive Design section in your CSS. Look for this: and DELETE IT. When I delete it your header appears. But... the header isn't responsive - so we need to fix that too. Nick has a "Genesis Responsive Header" plugin - download that and follow the instructions to see if will work for you after you remove the following code.

#header {
background-size: contain !important;
}

Don't do that. The header is responsive but the space is still there.

I am still looking for a solution for you.

Thanks! I did try Nick's plugin at one point and was still having issues.

Appreciate the help!

I like Easing Slider plugin. Install the plugin and add a line of php code anywhere in your theme so you can also add conditional tags to the code.
