Post Carousel to Display Pages

[ashedmo]

Hello,

It seems the post carousel settings has the option to pull pages, however it’s not working. I tried selecting posts from the dropdown, and that worked. I understand this is within the Visual Composer editor, but it seems this feature was created by Themes2Go since it has a custom icon in the Add Element dialog in Visual Composer.

With pages selected, nothing displays on the page.
Any helpful tips would be appreciated, thank you!

Hello, here I am with a solution.
It happened that “pages” were added in the dropdown but since nobody ever asked for it, was missing the appropriate page template to display them.

To provide you a quick fix before waiting a new theme update please proceed as follow:

1) download these 2 files:

short-carousel.php: https://www.dropbox.com/s/r9zr02sidc18qqb/short-carousel.php?dl=0

and

part-archive-item-page-php: https://www.dropbox.com/s/4iyjmkwl2b2iwar/part-archive-item-page.php?dl=0

2) Via FTP connect to your site and go to wp-content/themes/lifecoach

3) Put the first file (short-carousel.php) in

wp-content/themes/lifecoach/ttgcore-setup/shortcodes

4) put the second file (part-archive-item-page-php) in

wp-content/themes/lifecoach/phpincludes

Please also remember that your pages needs featured images to display nicely in the carousel.

Regards

Hi there,

Thank you for the quick reply! I appreciate it!

Is it possible to ensure specific pages don’t display? I’m putting this on the homepage, and the homepage is being pulled in, which isn’t needed.

I tried adding the slug of the page to show, but that didn’t work. I want to show 6 specific pages. Can we write an if statement in the script that displays certain page id’s?

Thank you!

Hello, I understand the case may need a little improvement.
In this new file you will have a new field (exclude pages).
Please specify the ID of pages to exclude separated by comma and without spaces (123,2345,3245 NOT 123, 1245, 2345).

1) Download https://www.dropbox.com/s/pb7bjfzi0zemdwg/short-carousel.php?dl=0
2) Upload in wp-content/themes/lifecoach/ttgcore-setup/shortcodes

Thanks!
