Replacing Slider Image WordPress
-
Hi Everyone,
I decided to delete my slider from my homepage and replace it with a static image. However, after I deleted the slider, I'm left with a dark square where the slider used to be. I want to put my new static image in that same spot, but have no idea how. Does anyone know where or what code I should add to do that?
The page is www.kempruge.com
The WP Forums never seem to be too helpful for me, but Moz always is!
Thanks in advance,
Ruben

Unfortunately this really depends on who designed the template. I would try to track that down
- Go to your Wordpress dashboard
- Click on "Appearance"
- Look at "Current Theme". The name of the theme should be here, and often the author, and the author's website. From there it is much easier to get support for your particular theme.
Many Sliders are also plugins:
- Go to your dashboard
- Click on "Plugins"
- Look for a plugin that says "Slider" or something to that nature. A couple of popular sliders include "Revolution Slider" and 'Cute Slider WP".
- Again look for author details. They may be able to help.
The question of how to fix it really depends a lot on who made the theme or plugin. Often on old themes/plugins its hard to get immediate help but you may find a forum that has the answer to your question. If its a new theme/plugin the author or company that made it is likely is somewhere waiting to provide answers.

Hi Ruben,
I'm going to ask the same question Tim did, as it has been a few weeks since he asked and it appears that you have replaced the slider with a static image (or deactivated the slider controls so that the slider appears static. Would love an update, thanks!

Hey Tim,
No, I just replaced it with the old slider that I really want to get rid of. I just can't afford to have a dark square sitting there while I try to figure out what to do. When I deactivate the slider, the dark square is where the slider images would be.
I thought I could just put a static image there, but no luck. Any help would be appreciated!

Hey Ruben,
I don't see the dark square you are referring to. Did you already get this resolved?

Responsive Web Design WordPress Template Suggestions
Does anyone have any RWD WP templates they would suggest? It's for a friend of mine that is starting a local solar panel installation company. For the beginning, he likely will not have more than a handful of categories and subcategories. I'd say no more than 50 total pages. Any suggestions would help. He doesn't want to spend more than $50 - $100, but he's not married to that figure if it's worth it. Thanks everyone, Ruben

Wordpress/ Insert Tables/ SEO
I'm using Wordpress to create websites and blogs. I have limited (non-existent) HTML Coding knowledge. I'm looking to insert tables within my pages with information. Inside of these tables I want certain names to link to another page with more specific information about that name. I'm using a plugin called "WP Tables Reloaded" it simple helps you to create aesthetically pleasing tables without needing to know HTML Code or CSS. The issue is... when you create this table and insert it to the post, the only thing that shows on the sites back-end page is the table I.D. and the only thing that shows in the HTML is the tables I.D. It looks like this... [table id=2 /] I don't think search engines will be able to crawl this table, thus I won't be receiving any credit for the links being used within the table. Am I right about this?

Replacing Textual Prices with Graphics
Hello All: Google snippets now include prices. We feel it's causing less click throughs from search results. Someone suggested to replace the textual prices with graphical prices. I worry Google will expect some sites to do this and penalize them for doing so. Any thoughts or evidence in this regard?
