In the quickstart demo the text which appears on the home page over the background picture of a truck is using the revolution slider.
And the AS Slider is published in the same position, but does not display anything. The articles it is supposed to use do not have any header images.
Is this the reason it does not do anything?
Thank You

Hello MANAGEDRISK,
In both cases, revolution and as art slider extensions show text only.

Hello
Okay so to get the images to display in the images section of the articles for slider I had to go and select the main image again as it didn't seem to know where they were.
They now show the thumbnail when you mouse over the eye in the images section of each article. However on the front page it still only shows a small wheel spinning and no image or text is displayed
thanks

Hello MANAGEDRISK,
In this template in sliders we used blank/transparent image, to change the main truck image, you have to make changes in the tmpl.default.css file in the following class:
You said "In this template in sliders we used blank/transparent image"
In the AS slider where is the setting for these blank transparent image.
In the AS slider settings it uses a category of articles called "slider"
It also says to use the main article image.
The main article image for the articles in the slider category is not transparent.
Thank You

Also as I said before the AS Slider does not show anything in the Home 2 example just a spinning wheel.

Hello
With AS Slider I am still just getting a spinning wheel on the Home 2 demo page.
I tried to change the intro image for the article to the other images in the slider folder but that did not work. I changed them back to the transparent gif but that doesn't work either.
I installed the quickstart and right from the beginning the AS Slider has only shown the little eight segment spinning loading wheel.
Please help me fix this.

Hello MANAGEDRISK,
The issue was fixed by adding base url to images path in the _item.php file.

Hello ASDesign
So far as adding the url to images path in _item.php file. Were there instructions that this was necessary?
Where does this file live?
Also with regard to the Revolution Slider from Unite is there a way to make it slide the background image? (the truck) What code would I need to put in the template CSS or the template php files.
Thank You
