  Hi,

  I have been revising my home page regularly, by uploading new images and deleting old images. However, the deleted pics keep showing on the screen, and there often is repetition of a few images. Would appreciate if I can get some help.

  Regards,

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

  Hi there, I see a slider with three images on your site running The Photographer here, and none of them is repeated:

  https://picselated.wordpress.com/

  Is this the site you need help with or is there another URL I should look at where I can see images repeated?

  Hi Kathryn,

  Yes this is the right website. In my browser, the 2nd and 3rd image is same. I tried after clearing the cache and cookies, but it’s coming the same. Also, I have deleted these 2 images from the home page but they are still showing there.

  Ah, I see it now.

  Here’s what I’d suggest:

  1. Create a category for the posts you’d like included in the slideshow. For example, your category could be called “Featured.”
  2. Add the new category to each post you’d like included.
  3. Go to Appearance > Theme Options:
  https://picselated.wordpress.com/wp-admin/themes.php?page=theme_options
  4. Slideshow Category, select your new slideshow category instead of “All Categories,” as it is now.
  5. Click “Save Changes” when you’re done.

  Let me know if this fixes the issue.

  Hi,

  Can’t I just add images in my HOME PAGE, and get them in the slide show irrespective of my posts or my featured images?

  The featured slider in Photographer relies in the featured category, as you can see in the instructions:
