      Hi,
      I am using Epik with Genesis slider in Slider Wide widget area. Is it possible to be using slides (not a bg image) and have a text widget overlayed? I see other posts but not with slides. I am confused on how to do this. As of right now when I add text-widget it just adds above or below with white space instead of overlaying on slides.

        Do you have a link?

        You can add a background image for the slider separately through css and then add a widget that will show up on top of it.

        If you use the Full Width widget then you can add a slider that supports full width images/background.

          Wouldnt that make it not a slider? I am working locally, could you shed light on how to add background image in css and make it a slider still?

            Heres a screen shot of me using the following, the image is below all the homepage widgets
            .slider-wide {
            clear: both;
            width: 100%;
            background: url(http://www.josefdostal.dev/wp-content/uploads/2014/05/Slide11.jpg)no-repeat bottom center;
            height: auto !important;
            border:0;
            background-attachment:fixed;
            background-size:cover;
            -webkit-background-size:cover;
            }

                Oh, I thought you were talking about a background of the entire slider area. If you’re looking for something that has a different background image for each slider image, then you’d need to find a slider that can do that. The genesis slider doesn’t have that option. You can search for a Premium slider like the Layer Slider to see if that will work for you.
