  How do I create a Featured Image Slider for my home page?

  Here are the steps I’ve taken:
  Created a new post (wellness)
  uploaded a featured image with that post
  made it sticky

  Now it appears on my home page…awesome!

  But, I want to add images to this as a slider.

  I repeat the steps above, but all other posts are shown below as regular posts. The images aren’t showing as a slider.

  I’ve read about featured images and sticky posts and using the Forever theme which enables this, but unable to figure out what I’m doing.

  Could you please advise?

  Thanks a bunch!
  Jennifer

  In order for a post to appear in the slider, it will need to be stick with a featured image that is at least 888 pixels wide. Otherwise, the post won’t appear in the slider.

  Also, your only published sticky post is http://jenniferbrinn.com/2013/02/21/welcome/ with no featured images. The rest are unpublished drafts.
