Dyad 2 managing the next post
-
Whenever I try to add a slider as mentioned for the Dyad2 theme, it also makes an option under the next post which navigates to this slider post.
Is there any option to stop that and slider images should be only restricted as images not a post which look awkward to the visitors.The blog I need help with is: (visible only to logged in users)

Hi there, I don’t think I’m entirely clear on what you are asking. Do you mean the featured content post slider in the header of your site or something else?
If you mean the header, you can use a static header as described in the theme documentation Alternate Header Images
If no posts have the Featured Content tag that you set in the Customizer, Dyad 2 will display your tagline over the Custom Header Image if one was uploaded. A Custom Header Image can be uploaded by going to Customize → Header Image.

If I’ve entirely missed what you meant, please let me know more details about what you are trying to do.

When I try to add Slider Images as a post using tag, then what happens is when someone tries to visit my posts having specific content on my blog is fine.But on my last content post there is a link of “next post” and if I click on that it shows the image post used for slider or it shows that content do not found.
In this case how can I customize the next post link in this theme.So I can restrict the next post link to the post filled with content on the blog.

slider images should be only restricted as images not a post
Hello again, To the best of my knowledge, it is not possible to restrict the slider on the front page header to images only.
The Dyad2 theme‘s header is a Featured Content Slider which uses Posts to populate that area. This is how this theme functions. Those images are being taken from the Posts you have tagged as Featured Content and have a Featured image uploaded to them. https://en.support.wordpress.com/featured-images/
Consequently, if you only add a Featured image to your Post and nothing else, Dyad2 will still treat that as a regular Post and it will be included in the Previous and Next navigation visible on single post view, like here https://theballadroc.wordpress.com/2017/12/06/100/
It might be possible with a Custom Design upgrade (included in Premium or Business plan) to suppress the display of those Previous and Next links in single post view. However, without some advanced CSS tricks, those links would likely be removed from every post, not just the ones you are trying to keep out of the single post navigation.
The alternative is not to use the Featured Content Slider, but to upload a Custom Header for your entire site and also Featured Images for each blog Post.

Hi folks. @justjennifer is correct, as this is a post slider, it will always use images from posts. It is not just a slideshow of random images.
You could hide the next/previous buttons with CSS. But have you thought about just typing something about the images instead?

Not sure if I got it all straight but here is some code to remove the things you mentioned. I do not know your plan but if you can add css to your site then this code will remove the text from the slider
.site-banner-header { display: none; }This will remove the arrows
.slider-nav { display: none !important; }This will remove the navigation from the bottom of the posts
.nav-links { display: none; }Quick question do you have 2 empty posts on your site?

That would likely work but this user doesn’t have a plan that supports CSS. I do recommend just putting some text in the posts. Good luck!
