  Hi, I’m using the SKETcH THEME for my website http://www.coco-style.it.
  I would like to have a slide presentation of posts like it is on the sketch theme.
  If you click on the arrow below the next slide comes.

  Example (in the sketch theme).
  “she got carried away)+ photo
  then you click on it:
  “Look on the sunny side–“+ photo
  and so on.

  How can i get it?
  Should i use shorcodes?
  or there is a simple way to have it?
  And it is also available for the reddle theme?

  Thank you for your help!

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

  Hello!

  The slider in the theme Sketch is in the Portfolio Template and is for Portfolio projects only. If you’d like to use it, there are directions for setting up the Portfolio page on the theme’s info page:

  The Reddle theme does not have a slider. You can check what features a theme has in the sidebar on the info page:

  If you’re interested in themes that have post sliders, here’s a search of our entire theme showcase:

  Hi there!

  You currently have not created a Page using the Portfolio Page Template, which is required in order for this slider to work. Here are the directions from the theme info page I linked to above:

  1. Create or edit a page, and assign it to the Portfolio Page Template from the Page Attributes module.
  2. Go to Settings → Reading and set “Front page displays” to “A static page”.
  3. Select the page you just assigned the Portfolio Page Template to as “Front page” and set another page as the “Posts page” to display your blog posts.

  And here’s that link again for you:

  http://theme.wordpress.com/themes/sketch/

  Scroll down to the section titled “Portfolio Page Template”.

  Please let me know if I can help further.
