   How do I post a single video instead of a slideshow on my homepage?

   Hello LondonPaladin,

   You can try disabling your slider and embedding a video in your homepage content.

   Otherwise you will need to edit the featured-custom.php or featured-categories.php files and replace the slider code with an embedded video.

   If this sounds like something you would want to do then let us know and we will show you the code you need to work with.

   Yes, this is exactly what I would like to do. Can you tell me the best size for my video as well?

   If you can give me the necessary code changes I would like to do this.

   Thanks!

   If you are custom defining your images then open up /wp-content/themes/infocus/lib/includes/featured-custom.php and on line 17 you should see something like this,

   <div id="home_feature">
   	<div class="background">
   		<div class="inner">

   You need to go ahead and delete everything inside these divs so it looks like this,

   <div id="home_feature">
   	<div class="background">
   		<div class="inner">
   
   		</div><!-- inner -->
   	</div><!-- background -->
   </div><!-- home_feature -->

   And then add your embed code in the middle. You can try 960 x 300 or play around with the values until it looks nice.

   You can see my results at http://www.nashvilleseosolutions.com
   I am quite pleased.
   I was able to match the background of my video to the theme
   Will see how video compares with slideshow for conversions.

   I updated to the newest version and now I'm not sure how to add my video. I'm not using youtube or vimeo, I'm using EZ video player. Which allows me to embed buttons in my video. How do I insert the embed code?

   <center><div id="evp-230860dcd6f33968a82f9e96246ea3ba-wrap" class="evp-video-wrap"></div><script type="text/javascript" src="http://www.organicseduction.com/ezvideo/framework.php?div_id=evp-230860dcd6f33968a82f9e96246ea3ba&id=c2VvLWNvbnN1bHRpbmctMS5tcDQ%3D&v=1312056092&profile=default"></script><script type="text/javascript"><!--
   _evpInit('c2VvLWNvbnN1bHRpbmctMS5tcDQ=[evp-230860dcd6f33968a82f9e96246ea3ba]');//--></script></center>

   This is my embed code. I moved my site to http://www.organicconsultingsolutions.com and updated to the newest version, now I'm not sure how to embed my new code.

   If your wanting it to display in the slider then you'll need to switch to the "Raw + HTML" stage and put your code in the description.
