Subtitle in slider

Hi, I would like to have subtitle shown in slider, above the post title. Can you provide the code to add to td_module_slide.php

Thanks,

Hi

You need to add this code in td_module_slide.php:

$buffy .= '<div class="td-excerpt">';
$buffy .= $this->get_excerpt(20);
$buffy .= '</div>';

Change the number from get_excerpts() function if you want more words in excerpts.
You will also need this css in theme panel > custom code > custom css to change text’s color: http://screencast.com/t/SaHG6RceCrU

.slide-meta  .td-excerpt{
color: white;
}

Thanks!

Hi Andrei, thanks for your answer, but… I would like to display “subtitle” and not the “excerpt”.. is it possible?

HI

Sorry about that, it was my mistake. Yes you can add subtitles in slide by adding this code in td_module_slide.php: http://screencast.com/t/XDwRih0TUMKA

$subtitle = get_post_meta($this->post->ID, 'td_post_theme_settings', true);
if (!empty($subtitle['td_subtitle'])) {
$buffy .= '

';
}

You also need to replace the above css with this one: http://screencast.com/t/WTOd0TLs

.slide-meta .td-post-sub-title{
color: white;
border: none;
margin: 0;
}

Let me know ho it goes.
Thanks!

It works perfectly!! Thank you!

Hello,

I would also like to include some text after the title from the content not from subtitle, or excerpt. I know how to strip html tags so it won’t include an image or anything funky, but when I try to put the following code:

$buffy .=  $this->get_title();//$this->get_title_main();
				$buffy .=  $this->get_content();

inside the td_module_slide.php I’m getting an error saying:

Fatal error: Call to undefined method td_module_slide::get_content() in /home/site/public_html/wp-content/themes/Newspaper-child/includes/modules/td_module_slide.php on line 47

Is there anything I’m missing? I mean, if some modules can support text from content, why td_module_slide can’t?

Nevermind, I found it. Using get_excerpt() works as expected!
