How do I get the post slider feature on the Yumblog theme to work?

    I read in support that if I tagged a picture in a blog post “featured” it would include that picture and it’s post in the slide show at the top of my Yumblog-themed blog. It worked when I first tried it, but after 10 minutes, it no longer appeared. It has been a couple of weeks now and it still will not work.

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

    Hi there,

    For the Yumblog featured content slider to work, you’ll need to choose a tag (like “featured”) and add that to the Featured Content settings in your blog’s customizer. Here are the detailed instructions for that:

    • In the WordPress admin, click Appearance → Customize.
    • When the Theme Customizer opens you will see a sample of your site and a sidebar. Click the Featured Content tab.
    • Enter a tag in the Tag Name field. The recommended tag to use is “featured” or “feature.”
    • Click Save and Close.
    • Click Posts and either “Edit” or “Quick Edit” a post you would like to be featured in the Slider.
    • In the Tags section add the “Tag name” you added to the Featured Content Customizer earlier.
    • Click Update. All done!
    • The slider will appear once you have tagged at least two posts with the tag you just selected.

    You can find those instructions and more on the Yumblog theme support page by clicking the Support button on the right there. If you have any trouble with it, you can also get help directly from the Yumblog theme author in the theme’s premium support forum here:

    Please let me know if I can do anything more to help with that. :)
