    Sorry I’m not sure what you mean – how do I find this?

    Those are database table names. Custom fields are stored in the database. But let’s back up.

    How do you know this is a custom field?

    What is your URL?

    The URL is https://www.itihaasrestaurant.com. I’m looking to change one of the images on the ‘slider’ on the home page. One of my friends told me that the custom field was what I was looking for.

    Listen – thanks so much for your help! I’m completely lost.

    Well, your site is running Next-Gen Gallery, and also loading JCarousellite and JQuery.cycle, and I am not familiar enough with any of those to tell you what is happening. however, since your markup (HTML) doesn’t look like it usually does with Next-Gen, and since the term ‘carousel’ does show up in the markup I’d guess that the slider is built into the theme. It is also loading its images from a folder in the theme ( https://www.itihaasrestaurant.com/wp-content/themes/itihaas960/images/ ) which leads me to believe that it isn’t loading based on custom fields, although that is certainly possible.

    It is possible that all you need to do is replace the image in that directory. This one: /wp-content/themes/itihaas960/images/. It can’t hurt to try, so long as you have backups.

    Thanks – I’ll try this tonight. There’s also text next to this image -can you tell me where I can amend this?

    The entire banner is one image, including the text. You need to built that into your replacement images.
