Making A slideshow appear on more than first page - drupal

I am using the premium responsive theme in Drupal 7 to create a site. In the theme the front page has a slideshow on it. Is it possible to make the slideshow appear on the top of every page?
EDIT
So I was messing around with this a little more and I tried bringing the code into page.tpl.php so that it would appear on all pages, but nothing happened. I then tried doing it on the maintenance.tpl.php page, and still nothing happened. Any ideas out there?

It seems like we're working on a similar problem, but since you helped answer my question I thought I'd help you out. In the templates folder you have to create a new page--front.tpl.php (which I'm sure you have), and put it the code from this website:
Go Here
This will make your front-page unique, and you can copy the similar code to your page.tpl to make changes to the remaining nodes.

Where + how to edit Wordpress CSS to create a dropdown scrollable submenu in Wordpress?

I am a writer and I have menu for my chapters list on my website of 30+ chapters and currently it annoyingly looks like this:
current website
As you can see it cuts off, and Wordpress annoyingly doesn't have a feature that turns it automatically scrollable. There are 30+ chapters and you have to keep scrolling, scrolling, scrolling down to see them all.
I have found some good looking solutions on StackOverflow but don't know where and how to apply them on Wordpress.
If anyone could talk me through literally step-by-step 1. where to find the CSS of my Wordpress site 2. the code I'll need 3. where to paste it 4. if there's anything I need to add to the navigation block's inidividual "Additional CSS Classes" part like so: Additional box in the corner and anything else I need to do. I would be super grateful!
One of my fears is just dumping a bit of code somewhere in the middle of editable CSS and screwing up my entire site! My CSS knowledge is super beginner so laymans terms is very much appreciated thanks :)
I tried using Plugins (those seem even more confusing than CSS) and have considered using Elementor too but I have Googled and YouTubed, trying to find a solution and nowhere has something as specific as what I'm looking to achieve frustratingly.
I tried following this youtube video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=73XjO7hFZaw but didn't know what my "Target Element Selector" was, even when I went into Inspect on Chrome, all I found was this

Finding source of logo slider

I seen this logo slider on a lot of websites and i need help to either locate where to get it or any ideas to make it.
I tried to look through the sourcecode and can't how it is made.
I guess it is some sort of plugin or theme but not sure?

Link blocks to composer in Concrete5

I'm just playing about with an offline copy of Concrete5 and was wondering if there is any way to link blocks to the composer system to make them work? I made a page template hoping I could just click 'new page' and select my template to add it to the right area of my test site, but it won't show up. I then tried to edit a preset page template from my theme, and that worked fine... except it still populates the new page with the original blocks.
It seems like a total nightmare to do anything in this system. Should I be using a different one if I can't even do this?
I am not sure I fully understand your question but have you had a look at this tutorial? It might help https://documentation.concrete5.org/tutorials/setup-a-simple-blog-within-concrete-5-7

Not all Wordpress pages are displaying menus correctly

I am having a specific issue with my wordpress site that I'm trying to resolve.
The site is at www.dontforgetthebubbles.com
As you will see the homepage looks fine.
But many posts are not displaying correctly. As an example:
http://www.dontforgetthebubbles.com/2013/08/cradle-cap/#
The menu columns are all showing simultaneously (hover over 'Clinical' and compare this to the home page to see what I mean)
The 'toggle' button is not working (see http://www.dontforgetthebubbles.com/2013/07/intubating-with-stridor/ for an example of a post where it does work correctly).
I think the issues are related to more recent posts (and the older posts are ok) but it is affecting around 15 posts.
Could anyone suggest what my be causing this?
Thanks
You must have a CSS or plugin causing conflict. I can see that you're loading many stylesheets. Probably have a lot of plugins? Try disabling them one by one, beginning with the most recently installed to narrow it down.
Check all the Javascript files. Looks like some are missing on the pages with the problems. For example, superfish.js or sprite.js. My guess is one of them handles the dynamic menu features with is why <ul class="sub-menu">...</ul> under Clinical doesn't have by default the display:none property unlike your home page.

Wordpress slideshow plugin with scrollbar, autoplay and lightbox

I have been asked to build a portfolio website for a photographer. The main page contains a slideshow of the photographer's best work, I have used an autoplaying NextGEN SmoothGallery with Lytebox. After some customization of the plugin, this works.
However, the client has requested a category selection above the main slideshow and a scrollbar below the image. They also want part of the previous and next images to be visible, not just the image in focus. The image here illustrates what I mean.
I have searched and searched, but cannot find a plugin that would do this. Can anybody help, please?
The trouble is, I doubt there is a plugin around that would do this, and it's really not going to be a case of "here's the code to do that, just drop it in and you're flying".
If it were me, I'd probably write the whole thing myself, because if I'm honest, I've never used the NextGEN SmoothGallery plugin, and wouldn't want to root around all the code when I've got a simple idea myself;
A bit of PHP that outputs the list of categories, and then an unordered list of the X most recent items, one list for each category.
Then I'd use jQuery (and probably the jCarousel plugin) to create the slideshow for a single list, and add click handlers to the category links which simply 'swap in' the correct list into the current carousel.
Finish the whole thing off with some CSS.
Does any of that sound like something you'd be familiar with?
