how to use multiple images on featured content slider in organization theme
-
i am using organization theme. in home page there is a featured content slider. is it possible to display only images in this slider without any title and links. what i want is to display just images there. and on clicking on images nothing happens. its just for display. i have already removed the title. but on clicking the image it is still redirecting me to my blog posts. and only one image is being displayed. how to add more images.
The blog I need help with is: (visible only to logged in users)

Hi there,
The slider in your theme is a post slider, which means its purpose is to showcase posts on your site that you want to feature, not an image slideshow that just shows images.
You can hide the title using custom CSS, or you can just remove the title form the post itself, but there’s no way to prevent it from linking to the post you used to add a particular image to the slider.
To add more “images” to the slider, you need to add those images as featured images to their own posts, and tag those posts with your site’s featured content tag, which is currently the tag “Equityways”
At the moment you don’t have a featured image set on any of those posts, so the slider is using a default image that comes with your theme instead.
You can find info on how the slider works under the Homepage Featured Content Slider heading on your theme’s support page, here:

There might be a workaround – while they’ll still be linked in HTML, custom CSS could be used to prevent visitors from being able to click the images.
@bhaskarnaidu – please try pasting the CSS below into My Sites > Customize > CSS. It should remove all text from the slider and prevent the images links from being clickable.
/* Make slider images unclickable */ #slideshow .feature-img { pointer-events: none; } /* Hide slider text */ #slideshow .holder { display: none; } -
thanks a lot guys for replying. gary your answer made it unclickable, just as i wanted.
i have one more query. is it possible to add multiple images in one blog post. and display all of them in the slider one after another. and if it can be done. is it possible to keep that blogpost non public. so that others can’t see that dummy image post in a separate blog page.
once again thanks for your prompt reply guys. -
i tried to solve it my way. i made multiple blog posts. each post has only featured image and no content. by doing this i am able to show only images in my slider. but problem is that those dummy blogposts are visible to all. can i make it hidden. as making blogpost private isn’t serving the purpose

You can add multiple images to a post but only the featured image will be shown in the slider.

If you make those posts private, they won’t be displayed in the slider anymore.
If you want to have several images and have them rotate (slide) in your homepage, the best way for achieving this is by using a plugin:
