We used Soliloquy WP slider plugin and the dynamic add on.
Once installed you can use a function in your theme’s functions.php file to override the default image with the dynamic slider.
Basically add the plugin and dynamic add on, adjust the slider settings in the dashboard as this is how you can set it to operate by default. The dynamic add on allows you to pass other settings too if you want to have 3 different dynamic sliders happening for instance.
Here is the code to place in your functions.php file that will replace the EPL default image with your fancy slider.
<?php
function rec_replace_epl_featured_image() {
$post_id = get_the_id();
soliloquy_dynamic( array( 'id' => $post_id, 'width' => '1600', 'height' => '500', 'size' => 'full' ) );
}
// Adds the soliloquy slider to the image hook
add_action( 'epl_property_featured_image' , 'rec_replace_epl_featured_image' , 1 );
// Removes the default featured image else you will have a slider and featured image
remove_action( 'epl_property_featured_image' , 'epl_property_featured_image' , 1);
>
You can use other sliders that support shortcodes and no post id. In the example replace the soliloquy_dynamic () function with:
echo do_shortcode( '[FANCY_SLIDER_SHORTCODE]' );
This only works if the images are attached to the listing and the slider does in fact support using attached images to create a slider gallery.
