How to Always Display Navigation Arrows
Would you like to always display navigation arrows on your Soliloquy sliders? This is very easy with CSS. We’ll walk you through the steps on how to display navigation arrows on your sliders.
This tutorial is a little more technical as it requires basic knowledge of HTML and CSS.
Setup
Step 1 – Install and activate the CSS Addon
Your first step will be to install and activate the Soliloquy CSS Addon.
If you need any assistance in installing addons, please take a look at this article.
For this instance, we’ll be installing the CSS Addon.
Step 2 – Create or edit your slider
Next, create a new slider or edit an existing one. You can follow along with our documentation for creating your first slider.
Step 3 – The CSS
The CSS we’ve used in our demo is shown below.
You’ll need to change this ID number to match your slider ID number. You can find this by looking in the sidebar of your slider edit screen.
For more information on how to find your slider ID number you can read this article.
[css]#soliloquy-container-508264 .soliloquy-controls-direction {display: block !important;
}[/css]
If you are using the Metro theme, you need to add this in addition to the code above:
[css]#soliloquy-container-508264 .soliloquy-controls-direction {display: block !important;
}
#soliloquy-container-508264 .soliloquy-prev {
left: 0 !important;
opacity: 1 !important;
}
#soliloquy-container-508264 .soliloquy-next {
right: 0 !important;
opacity: 1 !important;
}[/css]
Be sure to update the -508264 with your own slider ID number
If you’d like to change this for all sliders, just add the CSS to the WordPress customizer.

Once you click Publish or Update on your slider, you’re all set!
