Tell us what you are trying to do? Create an image field whereby you add muliple images and they can become a slider on my custom content page.

Is there any documentation that you are following? I tried this https://toolset.com/documentation/user-guides/creating-sliders-with-types-and-views/ but it appears to be just for creating a view from post images. Want to create it for uploaded images in the custom fields.

Is there a similar example that we can see? Not really. Just need a simple slider with controls (buttons or arrows)

What is the link to your site? hidden link

Hi John

I've described exactly what's required before in this other thread: https://toolset.com/forums/topic/how-to-display-the-pics-i-uploaded-as-a-slider/#post-518295

Could you read through that and see if you follow it okay? (Since writing that, you can now add your custom code at Toolset > Settings > Custom code, no need to edit your theme's functions.php file or use the Code Snippets plugin.)

If you get stuck let me know.

Hi Nigel

Thanks for the info. Think I am close, but there seems to be a conflict with my existing Avada Slider elements on the page.

Any chance you could take a look?

Hi John

I nearly missed your reply, as the thread had already been marked as resolved.

Do you still need assistance?

Let me set up a private reply so that I can access the backend of your site to see how you have things set up.

You may want to create a temporary admin user for me to use that you can later delete. And be sure to have a current backup of your site, even though I don't intend to make any changes.

What is the custom post type that has the image fields?
What template or layout are you using to display the posts with slider?
