  I have Widely, which supports a slider. I added the slider and changed the front page of my site (theinspredclimber.com) to the blog page instead of the home/about page. In the process, my blogs have disappeared. When I click on blog it shows me the old “coming soon” announcement I set at the beginning but none of the posts are there anymore.

  Under my custom menu, they show up in their respective categories, but the main blog page is gone!

  Please help
  Paisley

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

  I put the site back the way it was. I want to have the slider but fear the same problem will arise. Can I use the slider if the blog is not my front page?

  Hi Paisley

  Taking a quick look at your blog it seems like you’ve managed to get the slider working on your front page. Is that correct? Do you need any additional help?

  Thanks!
  Richard

  I actually haven’t tried it again. I re-set it so there is no slider, what’s there now is just a photo gallery scrolling. When I use the slider the blog page has to be the front page (not how I have it set up now). The slider images/posts have to be tagged to show up in the slider. So what happens is the tagged images are there on the front page, but the rest of the blog posts, that aren’t tagged/in the slider are gone from the original blog page. The original blog page (which is currently where all the posts sit, but is not the front page) is still there when I make this slider change, but it is empty.

  Hi Paisley!

  If you wanted to try again we’d be happy to work through it with you. Just let us know, or we can use a test site to go through it and see what is happening.

  If you’re happy with the way it is now then great, but please let us know.
