Hi Gang!

Does anyone have a clue on how to replace the slider image or portion with a static image on the presentation page?

The reason is to have an image map on that static image.

 

thanks,

Gabi

Hi Gabi!

Go to “Presentation Page” in Mantra Settings :

1. Enable Presentation Page
2. @Slides selecte Custom Slides
3. Delete the content of all 5 Slides
4. Put the picture or content to 1 Slide

Have fun!

Mihai!

Thanks a ton for your response! The question remain of where to place the code containing the image map info.

Thanks a lot!

Hi Gang!

Any suggestion on this one on where should I tweak the code of a single slide image to make it as an image map? Thanks!

You can only do that if you hardcode your HTML instead of the slider in the presentation page file – includes/theme-frontpage.php

Thanks a lot Zed!!

I was able to add an image map but unfortunately the areas aren’t becoming links. I tried everything, using the id tag only (per HTML 5.0), and both (usemap and id). No change.

Any idea what can be wrong? Do you mind taking a look at the code?

Here’s the link: http://www.gabkits.com/hiswheels/

thanks!

I see you left the slider intact and you’re trying to use the map over the slider. This doesn’t work

You need to remove (or comment out) the slider and replace it with the HTML for your image map.

The slider starts with

`if ($mantra_slideType != ‘Custom Slides’) { `

and ends before

`// Second FrontPage title`

Thanks Zed –

Sorry to bother you, but I commented out, even deleted the block of code you mentioned and I got a blank page instead. Can there possibly be  something in that chunk of code that need to stay there?

Thanks!

Ah – nevermind –

Fixed. I’ve been cutting more code than needed. Thanks so much for your help!!

I should let you know that the proper way to do this is via a child theme.

Your child theme will need 3 files:

• style.css (with the content documented in the WordPress tutorial)
• functions.php with the content below:

`<?php
require_once(dirname(__FILE__) . “/theme-frontpage.php”);
?>`

• and the modified theme-frontpage.php file copied over from mantra/includes/ to the root of  your child theme’s folder.

This will make sure you will not lose your change at the next update.
