    Hello,
    I was using other slider plugin and set a shortcode like this.

    add_shortcode( 'sliderbydevice', function() {
if ( wp_is_mobile() ) {
if ( function_exists( 'soliloquy' ) ) { soliloquy( '390653' ); }
} else {	
if ( function_exists( 'soliloquy' ) ) { soliloquy( '390651' ); }
}});

    I tried same for metaslider but it doesn’t work.

    add_shortcode( 'sliderbydevice', function() {
if ( wp_is_mobile() ) {
echo do_shortcode('[metaslider id="46112"]');
} else {	
echo do_shortcode('[metaslider id="2703"]');
}});

    Do you have a php code instead of shortcode?

    Hi,

    I don’t know what the shortcode sliderbydevice is. Maybe that was from the other plugin too? Try it without that part. 

    if ( wp_is_mobile() ) {
  echo do_shortcode('[metaslider id="46112"]');
} else {	
  echo do_shortcode('[metaslider id="2703"]');
}

    I created it via code snippet.
    So I can put that shortcode in the page buildier.

    I am not sure hopw to add php without shortcode in to page?
    Soliloguy slider offers both php and shortcode to print slider.
    Thus first code is working. But yours don’t 🙁

    I tried this one too but didn’t work.

    add_shortcode( 'sliderbydevice', function() {
if ( wp_is_mobile() ) : ?>
[metaslider id="46112"]
<?php else : ?>
[metaslider id="2703"]
<?php endif;
}
);

    Then put [sliderbydevice] as a shortcode to theme.

    I visited this page. https://www.metaslider.com/theme-integration/

    `if (is_home() || is_front_page()) : echo do_shortcode(“”); // replace 123 with your slideshow ID elseif ( $header_image ) :”
    It mentions 123 but there is no 123 there.

    Ok, Solved finally.

    This is using wordpress is_mobile funtion.

    Add this with code snipper plugin

    function lookifmobile(){
if ( wp_is_mobile() ) {
echo do_shortcode('[metaslider id="46112"]');
}
else {
echo do_shortcode('[metaslider id="2703"]');
}
}
add_shortcode( 'sliderbydevice', 'lookifmobile' );

    Add this shortcode to your theme
    [sliderbydevice]
