  Hello. I am using the forever theme, and at some point about a year ago, I disables the sticky post option to show the posts in a fancy slider on the front page. Now I want to re-activate it, but I don’t know how! I need to do it tonight! Please help!

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

  Consult the theme description please where you will find instructions for “A Dramatic Personalized Home Page”. http://theme.wordpress.com/themes/forever/ Live demo site. http://foreverdemo.wordpress.com/

  You need sticky posts with featured images for the slider to display.

  This is the guide for setting a featured image on any theme http://en.support.wordpress.com/featured-images/#setting-a-featured-image

  If you don’t see the Featured Image module on your Add New or Edit Post page, please make sure you’ve selected Featured Image in your Screen Options. http://en.support.wordpress.com/screen-options

  Also note to show only your four latest posts (with a Featured Image above each one, of course) in a neat grid on your home page visit Appearance → Theme Options and click the checkbox there. Thumbnail on 4-column showcase for recent posts. Width 195px, maximum height 124px (cropped if larger).
  Featured Image (at least 887 pixels wide and height 355px)
