christycollins 3 Report post Posted October 13, 2011 How can I make a scrolling section in the body of my wordpress page. Like a panel that has a "next arrow" to move the panel to the next section. IE the web page still has the header and the footer but the mid section has an arrow to navigate the body to the next or past panel? This is hard to explain, I am trying to find a site that has something similar. Is this a gallery issue? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Kate 3 Report post Posted October 13, 2011 What would be in the scrolling section? Posts? Images? Built-in to PP, there is the Feature section as well as the Carousel section. But, if you want to scroll between posts, you'd probably have to use a plugin (or some semi-extensive custom coding). Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
christycollins 3 Report post Posted October 13, 2011 Yes the "section" would contain a photo, a paragraph of text, and perhaps a link that would open another page. I am familiar with the features section, but I need for a person to be able to click through the scrolling section (ie an arrow to go to the next or previous page) Can you give me an example of a plugin or where I could go to get some coding help. Im not a coder. Thanks Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
christycollins 3 Report post Posted October 13, 2011 Carousel may work, but I cant add a link into a carousel item, can I? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
christycollins 3 Report post Posted October 13, 2011 Ok Carousel will work great if I can figure out a way to embed a link to a youtube video that will open in a new window. ????? Here is the link to my experiment. http://www.christycollins.com/?page_id=1355 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
