You can choose to use a different hero slider, just copy the preferred code example from the blocks/sliders demo page and replace/overwrite the header portion of code.

Replace the slider background images


Flexslider

Full screen hero sliders use images of 1920x1080 pixels.


To add your images in the flexslider demo slides, go to folder (Geniux/assets/images).

Inside the images folder you will find a folder called "demo-img" that contains empty images.

Create a new folder, for example "my-images", (is a best pratice to group the images by category) then add your images to the my-images folder.

<!-- Start slide 1 -->
<li style="background-image: url(assets/images/demo-img/hero-bg.jpg)">

Replace the name of the images with your image path name, see image bellow for more detail;

<!-- Start slide 1 -->
<li style="background-image: url(assets/images/my-images/your-image-name.jpg)">
Important: Please note that the template does not include images in the source zip file.

The images used in Geniux demo version are only for demo purpose.
