The Bones theme does not support header images, so you have to insert the boom_header_image() function where you want to display it. I added it at the end of header.php file and the slider showed up below the menu.
Thanks Shazdeh,
I’m a real novice at developing and really appreciate your advice,
do you have a link where I can see the code to do this, or example of a similar fix?
I think I’m not quite getting it!
Just open bones/header.php file and add this at the end of the file:
<?php boom_header_image() ?>
and that’s it!
ah ha,
the image box now appears although I still haven’t got access to the Slider functions in my CMS – Appearance > Header
Is this right?
I can not access the Slider in my CMS,
When I used the 2011 Theme it appeared under- Appearances > Header
Does this make sense? Or am I confusing things more!
That’s the admin panel for the plugin. Go in there and upload photos!
The admin panel doesn’t appear in my CMS!
Thats what I’ve been trying to explain 🙁
Here is the code:

How can I install the header image slider to override the header in this theme?

@soul_lotus: That theme does not support header images, so you have to insert the boom_header_image() function where you want to display it. Open your header.php file and add this function.
I’m having a similar problem using the Thematic framework. I actually do get the control panel to add an image, but it doesn’t list the nivo-slider option, nor does it actually insert the header image (even when I upload a static image) into the published page.
I tried injecting the php code listed here into my header.php file, and it didn’t resolve the issue, it only broke my page layout.
Hi,
I am trying to put a code for a header slider into my header.php for my child theme Plytag. Since I’m a novice, I would appreciate someone instructing me on this as if I was five years old. Seriously, please tell me exactly where to put this code.
if (function_exists(‘get_thethe_image_slider’)) {
print get_thethe_image_slider(‘Slider Name’);
}
The slider name is The The Image Slider.
I have tried copying the header.php to my child theme and then added the code there, however I just keeping getting a blank website and an error message. Can you help me please.
