This sliding banners feature has powerful options that allow you to upload big banner images (.jpg, .gif, .png) and allows you to create “banner sets” as well. You can have multiple banners for each banner set. Inside each set, you can pick options to display banners in certain pages of your site. For example, you can tick to display a set of banners in one of the following:

If you only have a big banner to display on your site, then you do not need to create a banner set.
Below are the settings if you only have a single banner:

Enable: Yes

Set Enable: No


You can fill up the form below to enter a title caption and description for the banner:

If you have more than one big banner to display, you can create a banner set.

Enable: Yes

Set Enable: Yes

Set Name: Enter set name

 

Then start adding banners using the same form above.

After uploading some banners, you should see a list of banners under the banner set.

NOTE: If multiple banner sets are displayed on the same page, the banners would be merged.

For example, if you have the following banner sets:

Set A:  Banner set displayed on Home Page

Set B:  Banner set displayed on All pages

 

With this setup, Home Page will display Set A + Set B banners, while other pages will only display Set B banners.
