I’m creating a site with a home page that is different than the home templates page (just like CBOX does).

Only I’m getting some slider issues when I change the setting of the home page, vs just using the home template.

That might sound confusing.

If my homepage templated page is set as FRONT page in the reading settings, then everything looks swell. If I make my front page a different page, then the slider appears as more of a UL>LI and its alignment is off, etc.

Wondered if anyone else saw this.

I’ve narrowed it down to a link to the slider CSS not being called when the page is not set to be the FRONT-PAGE.

<link media=”all” type=”text/css” href=”http://beta.mbacswp.org/wp-content/themes/cbox-theme/assets/css/bxslider/jquery.bxslider.css?ver=3.6&#8243; id=”cbox-theme:bx_slider-css” rel=”stylesheet”>

It’s present when the front-page, but not when its just using the homepage.

I added this to the header-head.php file

<?php
if ( is_page_template(‘templates/homepage-template.php’) ) {
// render slider CSS tag ?>
<link media=”all” type=”text/css” href=”http://beta.mbacswp.org/wp-content/themes/cbox-theme/assets/css/bxslider/jquery.bxslider.css?ver=3.6&#8243; id=”cbox-theme:bx_slider-css” rel=”stylesheet”>
<?php
}
?>

That may or not be the best option (I know only enough PHP to be dangerous), but it at least fixed the bug temporarily. 🙂
