I want to maybe add a slider instead of right now header graphic image to some pages
(we use Genesis Lifestyle theme vs1.0)(Right now I have a large graphic image in my header on home page and all pages if I want to have a certain different image for various pages I have a plugin that although no longer gets updates - actually works well right now for me to that)
****An option I am thinking about of actually having is a slider (Revolution slider likely) for maybe the home page and certainly SOME other pages INSTEAD of header graphic image as it is right now
I want to also keep some pages for header image graphic even swap from slider back to header image graphic if I feel does not suite or change my mind etc...
Is there a genesis hook /widget plugin or something for Genesis to do this and make life easier?
and where and what code wise to add to have this happen....What code and where do I insert the slider code for:
1) maybe having it on home page instead of graphic image
20 whereabouts would I put slider code on certain pages to have them not show graphic image but slider?****I know where to add my main header graphic image to my css style sheet as have changed a few times for our site etc)
Many thanks

March 27, 2015 at 7:04 pm #145900JennyLonMemberThanks Christoph very much indeed -
1) Genesis custom header may certainly help will look into early next week and have a play meantime I need to clarify with you or someone reading this please
my existing CSS and mention of the header graphic file etc.. as follows:So as explained in my original post right now in our css style sheet the header image graphic has it appear on every page etc...so my question is do I leave that and no need to touch and will get over ride/written as such?.....*****if I go for the options such as Genesis custom header plugin
or even try this option 2 you gave ) wpsites.net/web-design/image-slider-wordpress-header/
(which I have read funny enough this week before actually...)so do I keep on our style sheet if using either of the options above the mention of the j-peg image etc for the main graphic header?
****As bare in mind I do want some pages to have an image graphic header as is the one now still, and other pages at times a likely slider.
I may try the home page with a slider and if don't like I may need to swap it back to image graphic header -hence your thoughts/feedback please and keeping the style sheet the same?Thanks Jenny!
