  Hi there,

  I’ve created this alternative homepage:
  http://unaids-ap.org/home/

  However, I can’t get any photos/posts to appear in the main homepage slider as per this demo:
  http://oxygendemo.wordpress.com/

  Forums tell me that when posting, I need to nominate a Location = Featured Image. However, I can’t find this feature anywhere on the Edit Post page such as:
  https://unaidsap.wordpress.com/wp-admin/post.php?post=1146&action=edit#

  Can you please advise how I can get this slider to appear?

  Alternatively, how can I add a static image where this slider should be? I’m happy for the posts to all appear under the Recent Posts section as long as I can get a static image above it.

  Thanks

  Huey

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

  It looks like the single blog post I made ‘sticky’ is missing from:
  http://unaids-ap.org/home/

  It should appear as the slider above the recent articles. Is it a bud in the code that’s preventing the slider from appearing? Or can I fix it?

  Hi WordPress Support, do you have any advice for this? It’s been several days now.

  Actually, I’ve figured this out. You need a make an entirely new post and set a featured image of more than 750px wide. Cheers,
