Is there any way to import an entire slider as a layer on a different slider?
I am currently linking from a menu layer I created to a page on which the second slider has been placed. This creates two problems:
1) I can't navigate between the two sliders. Once I'm on the new page, I don't have any way to navigate to a specific slide in the other slider.
2) I don't like the pause a page load creates.
I would just add all the layers onto the same slide, but I am using the "carousel" template for the second slider and love the way that looks, with the thumbnails at the bottom and so forth. This requires each image to be a separate slide.
I tried just using short code for the second slider as the link, but that doesn't work.
To get more specific, all the pages of the website I sent you are slides on the same slider EXCEPT "dot's headshots." Because the headshot gallery is a separate slider utilizing the carousel template, I had to put it on a separate page. My goal would be to incorporate this into the same page, as well.
Thank you for getting in touch with us. My name is Attila and I'm happy to assist you today. I appreciate your patience while we've been working towards your ticket.
Thanks, I gave that a try but it wasn't what I was looking for. I solved the problem temporarily by making the second slider a popup and using a layer of the first slider to trigger it, and it's pretty good, though not perfect.
Yes, the deeplinking is also initiated with a click like a normal link. Unfortunately there is no perfect solution for what you're looking to achieve as you cannot control a slider with another. Your two options are to add the two sliders to separate pages, that way you can also utilize deeplinking and link to a certain starting slide. Or you can keep the current setup with a popup slider, so they are both on one page.

Hello mary feuer,

No, unfortunately you cannot insert sliders into each other. You will need to add the second slider separately in this case. But you could use deeplinking, to start your second slider with a specific slide: https://layerslider.kreaturamedia.com/documentation/#builder-slide-linking

PS - With deep linking, the viewer has to click, right? You can't automatically implement it?

Thanks, I think I'm OK with the popup version.
