How Do I Create a Parallax Effect in WordPress?

Creating a parallax effect in WordPress is surprisingly easy. All you need is a little bit of code and some basic HTML skills. Here’s how to do it:

1. First, create a new WordPress theme or plugin and add the following code to the theme or plugin’s functions.php file:

add_action( ‘init’, ‘parallax_effect_init’ );

2. Next, create a new file called parallax.php and add the following code to it:

src = ‘http://www.domain.

com/images/parallax.jpg'; parallax_image->alt = ‘Parallax Effect!'; // Add the parallax image to the content area parallax_effect = new WP_ParallaxEffect( parallax_image ); // Set the parallax effect instance to the content area parallax_effect->set_content( parallax_effect ); }.

3. Now, create a new file called style.css and add the following code to it:

.parallax { top: 0; left: 0; width: 100%; height: 100%; background-color: #fff; }

4. Finally, create a new file called custom.css and add the following code to it:

parallax { background-image: url(‘http://www.jpg’); }.

Your finished parallax effect code should look like this:

add_action( ‘init’, ‘parallax_effect_init’ ); function parallax_effect_init() { // Get the current screen width wp_get_screen_width(); // Get the current screen height wp_get_screen_height(); // Calculate the parallax offset distance between // the current screen height and the parallax image height parallax_offset_distance = (wp_get_screen_height() – parallax_image_height); // Create a new parallax image object parallax_image = new WP_Image(); // Set the src and alt attributes of the parallax image parallax_image->src = ‘http://www.com/images/parallax.jpg'; parallax_image->alt = ‘Parallax Effect!'; // Add the parallax image to the content area parallax_effect = new WP_ParallaxEffect( parallax_image ); // Set the parallax effect instance to the content area parallax_effect->set_content( parallax_effect ); } .

parallax { top: 0; left: 0; width: 100%; height: 100%; background-color: #fff; } .custom { background-image: url(‘http://www.
