  Untitled’s Front Page Slider is only allowing me to have one featured image and when I try to add another featured image (insert feature image into post, make a tag, add the tag to the featured content in settings-reading section), it gets rid of the slider altogether. Am I not doing something properly with the tags?

  The blog I need help with is: (visible only to logged in users)

  In Settings > Reading you type only one tag. Each post that should show in the slider must be tagged with this particular tag.

  Thank you soo much! You have no idea how long I spent trying to figure it out!

  In the featured content section of the settings-reading page, it gives a maximum of 10 posts. Does it just grab 10 random posts with that specific tag or does it grab the 10 most recent posts with that tag and put them in the slider?

  Thanks again!

  You’re welcome.
  I haven’t actually tested it, but it cannot be random. Judging from other themes, it’s probably most recent.
  I don’t see why you’re interested in this: the contents of the slider are supposed to be controlled by you, not by the theme. The slider showcases some important posts; you select these posts, you use a special tag for the purpose, and you don’t use it for more than 10 posts at a time.
