greek yogurt slideshow in header image area
Permalink 1 user found helpful
When I put an image in the header image area it works fine but if I put a slideshow there all the layout gets lost and it covers the header nav and part of the site name.
Is this expected behaviour or a 'feature' (bug)? Is there any way to do this as that is where I'd like the slideshow to go.
TIA

What is the URL?
This is a known issue and simple to fix.
You will need to edit the source a bit to have it behave as you want.
Open up main.css located in 'root/concrete/themes/greek_yoghurt'.
After you have saved the file, make sure you clear concrete5 cache and browser cache to see the result. To clear concrete5 cache you go to 'www.yourdomain.com/index.php/dashboard/system/optimization/clear_cache/' (or type 'Clear Cache' in intelligent search to find the link). Clearing browser cache can be done (in most browsers) by hitting Ctrl+F5 a couple of times.

To have the change persistent even after an upgrade of concrete5 you will need to make an override (or create a new theme out of the core 'Greek Yoghurt' theme).

Thanks very much to all. I had posted this in another part of the forums (http://www.concrete5.org/index.php?cID=399193&editmode=) where I got help from ronyDdeveloper. I didn't realize I was in two different places because I was jumping from one computer to another and I find the forum topics a little ambiguous so I couldn't figure out exactly which one was most appropriate or which one I had actually posted in at first. I know double posting should be avoided. Many thanks and it's looking good now.
Hi, I had the same issue on this and this fix worked fantastic!
Since I have your attention maybe I could ask a similar question about another theme problem. I am using the theme Fluidity (orange theme). The problem I have is that the Header Nav is set to the left and all content is left. I have been struggling with the main.css coding and trying to figure out how I can center the Header Nav and all content in either the Body or Main Container. There is an abundance of coding in this theme and I am thinking of switching it to Greek Yogurt and then just modify the color scheme. Any help or advice would be helpful. Thanks again for this fix!
