Two functions I want to implement in my WordPress theme - wordpress

1) I want to create an image slider like here: https://rosaliedemo.wordpress.com/ (I'm using the same Wordpress Theme). There is no widget available to achieve that. Notice that those pictures are linked to a specific post I made. Is that a popular widget or plugin I need to implement somehow?
2) Secondly I want that the latest posts are seperated in 2 colums which already works. But I want that the first latest post is only one column.
How can I achieve that?

Answering your questions:
That Slide Images is a Plugin, here you can find it: http://www.myjqueryplugins.com/jquery-plugin/flexslider
I really don't understand at all your question, you want to divide a post in columns? I use to used this plugin to make columns inside posts:
https://wordpress.org/plugins/column-posts/
Let me know if it helps.

Two column layout in Wordpress?

I'm not sure if this is a general web design or Wordpress question.
I have a simple demo here to illustrate my question.
http://www.ttmt.org.uk/forum/wp/
It's just a simple 2 column responsive layout.
My simple question is how do I spilt the content between the two columns.
The page will be a Page in Wordpress and not posts (I think).
I wanted to create a page in Wordpress and place the text on the content area
There is one content area in Wordpress, is there a way to split this content
so I can say this is the left column, this is the right column.
The text will all be on the same subject but I need to split it between two columns.
Thanks in advance for any help.
If you are asking for how to make three columns out of the existing two than have a look here. If you are looking for a way to make it possible to enter the content in a way that you are able to output the different columns in different places in the theme, than there are a lot of ways.
In general you need some kind of »container« for each column, so you could start by adding div-containers by using the plain text editor when creating a post or page. You can also use the custom fields to enter more columns. There are also plugins available (I never used one for this) and last but not least: you can create your plugin and hook into the page/post-edit page and add additional fields to the input field. With such a plugin you also create a custom post type and hook only into its editing form.
The solutions range from »cheap and fast« to »rather complex« and it depends how comfortable the editing should or has to be. If it is only for you than simple hacks in the editor might satisfy your needs, but if it is for a client who is not that good in html you should consider something »stronger«.
I think this is design issue rather than Wordpress. Wordpress fetch content as a single item and displays it. If you want to display the content in multiple columns then you can use jQuery plugins like http://www.vanderlee.com/martijn/?page_id=229
You could split your content into column using the column shortcodes plugin from wordpress.org

Wordpress Next & Previous

I am trying extremely hard to show a next & previous button regardless if it is active on my wordpress theme. I cannot seem to figure out a way to make it work. I am trying to do this: http://www.kinocreative.co.uk/hints-and-tips/wordpress-nextprevious-post-navigation-with-images-and-inactive-links/ exactly but for my category archive page. I have tried using something like:
<?
echo 'Previous';
echo 'Next';
?>
But that doesn't work to go to the next/previous page of categories.
While this may not be the case for you, I have found through the different themes I've implemented, that not all pages support the next and previous buttons being added. There is a certain way the posts are requested from the database that doesn't always give you what you want.
If you have followed the guides out there (like I did), it's possible that page in particular just won't support it. I know it's not the answer you're looking for, but take it into concideration instead of wasting all your time. You could always edit the theme entirely to allow a feature like this. Take a look at editing how your theme is generating posts altogether, instead of just trying to add the buttons.

How to add one more editor for pages /post in wordpress

Hello Friends I want to add one more editor for wordpress pages/post .Is there is any plugin or any thing .Please let me know if any one having any idea about this.I shall be very thank ful to you
Do you mean you want to use a different editor for posts/pages than the built in one? I haven't tried this one but it looks good and I've been meaning to try it:
http://www.deanlee.cn/wordpress/fckeditor-for-wordpress-plugin/
If you are looking for multiple VISUAL/HTML editors (to control different parts of your post/page), you can either use custom fields or a plugin called PODS CMS.
If you are using custom fields, read:
codex.wordpress.org/Custom_Fields
A very popular plugin that works with custom fields is FLUTTER. I haven't used it myself, but I have used other plugins and I would probably go with Flutter because of what I have heard about it.
If you use PODS CMS, be aware that it doesn't work with plugins that require custom fields (for example, many feature slider plugins) but it's a great way to have multiple text fields on the same page. It's great for very customized content.
PODS CMS does require some php knowledge but the documentation online is very good:
mondaybynoon.com/2010/01/04/introduction-to-pods-cms-wordpress/
Personally, if I have more than one custom field per post/page, I would go with PODS, but that is just my preference.
I got the solution of above question.
http://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/multiple-content-blocks/
Using this you can easily add one more editor for page or posts
Thanks
