    Hi,

    Does anyone know of a way to set a simple image slider as the background of a section or column, so other content can be laid over the top and not move with the slider?

    Is there a plugin that will do this (preferably free)?

    Thanks for your help.

  • Not for the inexperienced. The only way I know to achieve this is to use 2 sections and some custom css.

    The first section will house the slider in which can be any free slider of choice that can fit the entire section whether it be full viewport height of the browser window or a fixed height for each view size, the next section would need to be constrained to the same size and have a negative margin the height of the previous section and a higher z-index.

    You would do this using custom css, you’d give the lower section a negative margin the same height as the previous section and make sure the content does not overflow nor force the containing section to exceed it’s fixed height.

    Upon doing this, you will have difficulty accessing the controls for the top section if you need to adjust anything so remember to use the Navigator ( CTRL/CMD + Shift + I ). Best of luck and success to you!
