Using this method, there is no need to add a shortcode to a page or post; just simply paste the following PHP code into your PHP page where you would like your parallax to display. This method is especially usefull if you are having trouble with full width, or you would like to build it into your theme. ``` echo do_shortcode('[parallax-scroll id="#"]') ``` _Where # = parallax ID number_ I have no background image? Make sure you set a featured image in the Parallax setup screen. This is usualy in the bottom right of the edit page. This image will be the background. Full width does not work Parallax scroll has been written to work across as many different themes as possible, however as everyones wordpress setup is different, and every theme is different it is very difficult if not near impossible to guarente that the plugin will work on every site. Parallax scroll is built and tested using the standard wordpress themes; this is the only base line that is availble to work against; therfore if you are having issues, please test it against the standard theme to check if its a fault with the plugin or the theme. The full width issue is a common one, where the parallax does not span the full width of the page. Parallax scroll is designed to be full width out of the box. As standard it will size to the full width of the post. If this doesn’t work as required, a full width option is availble. This is a bit of a hack to resize the parallax to the full width of the content area of the page/post. Because this is a bit of a hack, it may not appear correctly for everyone. Why is this an issue on some themes? Well some themes, even though they claim are full width themes, are not actually full width at all. A lot of themes will actually be setup using divs with margins either side. They trick you into thinking its full width by setting the colors and borders to the same color. Unfortunatly, on themes like this its impossible for me to cater for, however you can modify the fullwidth. js script to target the specific width required yourself. Where can i get support?

Made parallax sections work, and in the simplest manner possible. I’ve seen a few other attempts at parallaxing on wordpress and every one of them was messy in implementation. Only thing missing, IMHO, is the ability to identify sections via name/title and not just ID i.e., [parallax-scroll name=”special event carousel”] or [parallax-scroll title=”featured”] instead of [parallax-scroll id=”419″] as it makes identifying which is which much easier when looking at several of them on the target page editor. ![](https://secure.gravatar.com/avatar/a3cd747a1b8571cd1b01234dd2d028397cf52e4747d5fbb8eeea15659278ad9d? s=60&d=retro&r=g) ### 󠀁[Doesn’t work on mobile.](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/doesnt-work-on-mobile-13/)󠁿 [Zen777](https://profiles.wordpress.org/markbanf/) setiembre 13, 2017 Why do no parallax plugins support mobile?

Well, not in a bad way. I’ve used parallax plugins, built-in parallax options with numerous premium themes, and in a pinch I’ve also built parallax sections using CSS. This is the only time I’ve had fun.
