Hi rajeshchugh,
I have updated my site to look like yours - so beautiful! Please allow me to use yours pictures and contents to test for this theme.
One problem that I have is when I view my site from a mobile it displays in mobile style and has an option to view full site at the bottom.

How can I set it up like yours - just go direct to mobile style?
Thanks,
Koala

Hi movin,
I just copied and pasted the code in function.php of child theme after that there is another short code for the same. Applied both but error. Kindly suggest.

Hi koala,
I am a bit confused about your url and what you want to do exactly. Better if you use your own content. Thn i can assist better.

Which shortcode are you talking about and what error are you getting?

You should copy the code of function sparkling_featured_slider from the shared topic in to your child theme functions.php file.

Hi Movin,

THIS SHORTCODE. please tell how to put this and where. I am totally confused now. Kindly review.

/**
 * Featured image slider, displayed on front page for static page and blog
 */
function sparkling_featured_slider() {
  if ( is_front_page() && of_get_option( 'sparkling_slider_checkbox' ) == 1 ) {
    echo '<div class="flexslider">';
      echo '<ul class="slides">';

        $count = of_get_option( 'sparkling_slide_number' );
        $slidecat =of_get_option( 'sparkling_slide_categories' );

        $query = new WP_Query( array( 'cat' =>$slidecat,'posts_per_page' =>$count ) );
        if ($query->have_posts()) :
          while ($query->have_posts()) : $query->the_post();

          echo '<li><a href="#">';
            if ( (function_exists( 'has_post_thumbnail' )) && ( has_post_thumbnail() ) ) :
              echo get_the_post_thumbnail();
            endif;

              echo '<div class="flex-caption">';
                  if ( get_the_title() != '' ) echo '<h2 class="entry-title">'. get_the_title().'</h2>';
                  if ( get_the_excerpt() != '' ) echo '<div class="excerpt">' . get_the_excerpt() .'</div>';
              echo '</div>';

              endwhile;
            endif;

          echo '</a></li>';
      echo '</ul>';
    echo ' </div>';
  }
}

In WordPress Shortcode is a different term please see here Shortcode « WordPress Codex

I think you are referring SHORTCODE as snippet of code here.

Please copy the code of function sparkling_featured_slider from the shared topic and paste it in to your child theme functions.php file replacing your existing snippet of code that you shared above.

After doing this just create a custom field in the slider post in the admin area having name slider_link and add the URL as value in it where you want to redirect the slider post link.

Hi movin
the login details are:

username - rajeshchugh
password - colorlib

url - http://www.petalsayurveda.com/wp-admin

Issue - “all slider image click must be forwarded back to the home back”

Thank you for sharing the site details.

O achieved it by editing the functions.php file of your child theme and adding slider_link custom field for first post of slider as shown in the attached screenshot.

Please create custom field for other slider posts.
