Hey erlen110,

To create a slider first you need to add some slides (left hand ‘Slides’ menu) Make sure to add your image as a featured image for each slide. Text can them be added to the content box. (Tip: Wrapping the text in heading 4 tags looks great)

Once you have created your slides you then need to create a page and tick the ‘Show Slideshow’ option (right hand side box).

Let us know if you need anything else :)

Thanks, Gaz

It works for me, but what about the slider on the homepage? I have no static homepage, since it will lose the blog then. However, with the blog homepage I have no slider neither. How can I get the slider working on the homepage as in the demo?

Thanks in advance!
Eddie

Found it!
I created a static homepage, added the slider and changed the template to “home”.
