# Using the Revolution Slider

Your Hotello Theme incorporates the Revolution Slider plugin that allows you to display a series of images or other content on your web pages as a slider or carousel. This is useful for picture galleries, introductions, etc.

Note: This appendix gives you a brief overview of using the Revolution Slider. Please see <http://www.themepunch.com/revslider-doc/slider-revolution-documentation/> for more detailed instructions.

Before you can add a slider to a page/post, you first have to create the slider. Click on **Slider Revolution** in the WordPress menu to access the Sliders page. You can create a new slider from scratch or you can use a free or paid template.

Once the slider has been created, you can add it to your pages/posts in one of the following ways:

**-** In the page/post editor, add a shortcode **\[rev\_slider alias=“xxx”]** (where “xxx” is the name of the slider), or using the Classic Editor, click on the **Add Element** button and select a slider to insert it at your cursor location.

**-** In the Widgets screen (**Appearance > Widgets**), drag the “Revolution Slider” widget to a sidebar.

**-** Using Visual Composer, add a Revolution Slider widget/element to the page/post.

**Again, thank you for purchasing this theme!**

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the current page URL with the `ask` query parameter, and the optional `goal` query parameter:

```
GET https://docs.stylemixthemes.com/hotello-theme-documentation/content-management/using-the-revolution-slider.md?ask=<question>&goal=<endgoal>
```

`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is optional and describes the broader end goal you are ultimately trying to accomplish on behalf of the user. GitBook uses it to tailor the answer towards what is most useful for that goal.

The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.

Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
