  I’m wondering if it’s possible to change the order of my featured content in the front page slider/carousel. I have three pages – Feature Writing, Copywriting and Social Media – in mine, and I would like to change it so that the Social Media page isn’t the first one when you land on the site.

  I’ve tried changing the publish date of that page to see if it makes a difference, but it doesn’t. Is there anything else I can do?

  Many thanks.

  Hi there,

  Have you reviewed the documentation for this theme (appears to be Dara) here?

  If you scroll down to the section on ‘Featured Content Slider’, it should walk you through the steps.

  Hi there – I just tested this, and changing the publication date of posts worked to modify the order of featured posts.

  Right now, “Social Media” has the most recent date, 2017/05/31, which is why it’s being displayed first. If you’d like a different page to be displayed before Social Media, try giving it a more recent date than 2017/05/31, or give the Social Media page an older date.

  I’m such a dope Kathryn, apologies. I’d shifted the date in the wrong direction. Thanks for your help, sorted now.
