I’d like to put a fullscreen Wow-slider (or any other slider if that makes it easier) on a landing page and add a layer with a link to the homepage on top of the slider.
The link should be centered horizontally and vertically on the page.
Can anyone please tell me on how to accomplish this?
I’ve added the Wow-slider to the page with a crowbar-action and that plays back fine (fullscreen and responsive). But how to add the layer with the link? Do I need to add this to the Wow-slider script?
Kind regards,

The absolute easiest way to do this would be to add the link to whatever you are playing in the wow slider. It’s not going to be simple to position a layer over the slider if it doesn’t always stay in the same place. I mean, yes, you could create a top-most link layer with the following code, and insert it in the same crowbar, after the invocation for your slider.
That’s going to cover the entire page with a single link to wherever you want. But that’s a very simplistic approach, since it will continue to cover the entire page whether the slider is there or not. Since you haven’t posted a link to your page, it’s very difficult to work out exactly what you’d like to do here.

Thanks a lot. A simplistic approach is perfectly fine as it is meant for the landing page only. However I did not mean to make the entire page the link but instead intended to have some words like “START HERE” centered in the middle of the screen leading to the “real” homepage.
What I want to achieve is that when you first land on the site you will see a fullscreen slider showing some photographs until you hit the START HERE link in the middle of the screen (on top of the Wow slider) which then loads the homepage will all its menus and navigation and so on.
(Without the PRE of course. How do you post code snippets here???)
(The margin-left:-30px compensates for about half the link-size, not really accurate but gets closer than omitting it...)
Kind regards,
Ace

Type four or more tildes in a row, on its own line, to start a code block. After the code sample, add another four tildes on its own line. That ends the code block.

A Splash page by any other name!
There are reams of articles about Splash pages and why they are BAD for SEO.
The first page that the visitor reaches should be chock full of rich SEO content - a slider is NOT that.
