  I am using the Sketch Theme and have set up a slider on my static homepage. The slider does not move automatically, and you must hover to even see an arrow to advance to the next featured image. How can I automate it to move through the featured images automatically?

  Hi Carol!

  I’m happy to see you chatted with Simon over this on live chat since submitting your support request. It’s not possible to get the Sketch theme’s builtin slider to automatically advance through its slides.

  Beyond choosing another theme to get this functionality, you could also consider using the WordPress.com slider to display your images instead:

  Hope this helps out! :)
