How to Configure Banner Section?

Last updated

You can choose a static image, video, or slider as your banner. The banner will be displayed at the top of your website.

To set up your banner:

  • Go to Appearance > Customize > General Settings > Banner Section.
  • Choose either Banner as Slider, Static/Video Banner, or Disable Banner (if you don’t want a banner at all).

Banner as Slider

Note: Before you choose Latest Posts or Category in the Slider Content Style, make sure that you have made these beforehand. You can create Posts via Posts > Add New and Category via Posts > Categories. If there are not enough Posts or Categories, a grey fallback will appear in the Banner Section.

  • Go to Appearance >  Customize > General Settings > Banner Section.
  • Choose Banner as Slider in the Banner Options.
  • Select either the Latest Posts or Category in the Slider Content Style.
  • Different options are displayed based on the option you choose on the Slider Content Style.
  • Enable Include Repetitive Posts to add posts included in the slider on the blog page too.
  • Enable Slider Auto for the auto transition of the slider.
  • Enable Slider Loop for the continuation of the slider.
  • Enable Slider Caption for Showing caption on each slider.
  • Click Publish.

Static Image or Video Banner

Note: If you have added a video, the image will not be displayed. You can either use an image or a video in the banner section at a time. In the mobile view, the video will not be displayed to save bandwidth, instead, the fallback image will be displayed. So we recommend you add a banner image as well.

  • Go to Appearance > Customize > General Settings > Banner Section.
  • Choose Static/Video Banner in the Banner Options.
  • Click on Select video to upload the video of your choice in the Banner Section or you can also add the Youtube URL for a video.
  • If you want to display a static image, click on Add New Image to upload the desired image to the banner section.
  • Set Title and Sub Title to add title on static/video banner section.
  • Enter the Label for the Banner Button.
  • Enter the Link for the Banner Button.
  • Enable/ Disable Open in new tab option.
  • Click Publish.
