Slider images in banner

[ElizabethParticipant]

Hi, I can’t seem to find a way to add a slider to my home page banner like you have in the demo. Was this functionality packaged with the theme? I only uploaded the theme and child theme folders, and now my download link has expired and I can’t see whether there were other plugin files I needed to upload to get this functionality.

Thanks in advance for your help.

Update – I found and installed Widgetkit, but cannot access the screen in the image from your tutorial (screen shot attached here) to manage my widgets. I only have a screen to turn widgets on and off and save (see second attachment). Widgetkit/themegrove has NO documentation, forum or support tutorials available on their page: https://themesgrove.com/support/#

Hello Elizabeth,

First of all you need to get the lite version of Widgetkit plugin for reference; Visit Widgetkit Lite download page and check it under archives.

Then follow this documentation
under create a slider like the demo site using Widgetkit thoroughly.

Please let us know.
Thanks!

Hello, thanks for your help.

This link is taking me to a page to purchase Widgetkit 2, I do not see an option for Widgetkit Lite, nor can I find it via google search or the WP plugin marketplace.

Hello Elizabeth,

We’ve sent you the plugin attached. Please check your inbox.

Thanks!

Hi, thanks, I got the file and installed, but I’m having the same problem. All I can access are settings, I don’t see any buttons to create the actual slides or add photos. My interface does not look like the screen shots in your tutorial.

Hello Elizabeth,

We’ve accessed your dashboard and replaced the widgetkit plugin with the previous version which now works fine.
please follow the tutorial and you’re good to go.

Let us know if you’re stuck anywhere!

Thanks!

Thank you, I see all the options now. I understand this is an older version of WidgetKit? Am I going to have issues with updates? I’m tentative to build a bunch of content if there won’t be support for it going forward. Thanks again.

Hello Elizabeth,

Not with the latest version, however you can always contact the plugin support if you’re willing to use it anyway.

Thanks!
