      A business owner friend of mine really liked a menu feature she saw on http://www.chase.com, and is hoping to have it on her site. The menu bar below the header on chase.com slides with the header images so that each menu icon centers under the associated image.

      Her site is not built yet, but she had already purchased the Epik theme. Is there a WP plugin that will do this with Epik, or is there another Genesis Framework theme that will do this? Sorry for the awkward description of the feature above. I can’t seem to find out what this kind of feature is called.

        It appears from looking at their page, Chase uses Slick Slider.

        https://wordpress.org/plugins/wp-slick-slider/

        The “menu” is actually a slider, with clickable images. You can make any image click to a link to a page, thus useing it as a menu. Just style the size and other appearances as you desire with .css

          Thanks Andykev! Got another question for you, if you may know the answer. I bought the Slick Slider and Image Carousel Pro and installed it. Basically, you just set up a slider, then paste the shortcode into the page.That works well enough, but when I try and paste the shortcode into my Epik theme slider widget area for my homepage (I paste the shortcode into a text widget and place the text widget into the slider widget area), it just displays the code rather than the widget. I’ve also posted this issue in the plug in forum as well, but thought I’d ask you, just in case. Thanks again!

            // Enable shortcodes in widgets
add_filter('widget_text', 'do_shortcode');

            The above, place in you theme functions.php file at the bottom.

add_filter('widget_text', 'do_shortcode');<!--formatted-->

              This is for some themes which don’t support shortcodes. I tried a couple shortcodes on my Epik theme and they work without adding this.

              A link to your site would be very helpful to see what is going on. Otherwise this is all academic.

                I just added the above code and got the following error message:

                Parse error: syntax error, unexpected end of file in /home/naydacattin/public_html/wp-content/themes/epik/functions.php on line 275

                I tried cutting out that code but am still getting the same error message. Didn’t think I cut out any characters when I put the code in or took it out, but I somehow must have. Any idea on best way to correct? My set is http://www.new.cirrusaviation.us. Thanks
