Setting up the Slider

Our themes comes with two types of sliders - one that allows you to upload images and add links to external sites (called Image Slider), or the Featured Slider which relies on the blog's feed. Depending on the type slider your theme provides, follow the steps from one of the sections below:

Setting Up the Featured Slider

By default, our Featured Slider displays your most recent posts automatically. If you want to display featured posts based on your labels:

1. Go to Layout > edit the "Featured Slider" widget.
2. Replace this part:
   
   

   <script type="text/javascript" src="/feeds/posts/default/?published&alt=json-in-script&callback=featuredslider"></script>

   With:

   <script type="text/javascript" src="/feeds/posts/default/-/featured?published&alt=json-in-script&callback=featuredslider"></script>

3. Change the featured text in red with the label that you want to feature.

Important: this is case sensitive, so please make sure that it is written exactly as it appears in the post editor, otherwise Blogger will not recognize this label (feature is not the same as Feature, or FEATURE).

Setting Up the Image Slider

If your theme features an Image slider where you can upload your own images and add custom titles and links to external sites, then follow the steps below:

1. Go to Layout > edit the "Slide #" widget in the Image Slider section.
2. Change the "Slide #" name in the Title field.
3. Add a description in the Caption field (optional).
4. Add a link to your image in the Link field (optional).
5. Select Upload image from computer and click Browse... (do not enable the "Shrink to fit" option).
6. Click Save.
