    Hi,

    I am halfway through setting a site up with this theme and its looking good so far. I was wondering if it is at all possible, within the shop page, to replace the static banner graphic (at the top of each shop page/category) with a layer slider I will create for each category and add a text section underneath it to have content explaining what products are within said category.

    I would presume this would be possible but I am not certain how to achieve this level of customisation within this theme so any help/advice would be greatly appreciated.

    Many Thanks

    Les

    Hello,

    To accomplish this you should to go to Products -> Categories, edit required category and specify category description as you desire (put there Layer slider shortcode or something else).

    Hi Jack,

    Thanks for getting back to me so quickly, I have tried entering both text and the layer-slider short code within the category description section and neither show on the corresponding pages.

    Cheers

    Hello,

    Yes, of course! I’ve added the following line of code <?php do_action( 'woocommerce_archive_description' ); ?> (line number 56).

    Hi Jack

    Yes there you can upload static images, is it possible to display an animated banner in this area instead?

    Hi Jack

    I tried to email in regards to paid customisation and got a bounce back saying I wasnt allowed to create a ticket that way and had to do it through the website?
