Sorry for the late answer. I was away from home for a while. I want to show a slider with the latest posts on homepage, before the latest posts. I tried with a static page and I could put the slider, but if I have many articles they will all show on the homepage, making my website a mile long :P.
A featured posts slider is that box that usually exists on top of the latest posts. Your theme doesn’t have one, but I liked it and wanted to use it anyway, thinking that I can add a slider after. But it’s not that easy. I have a slider called “Lazy content slider”, check the plugins area on www.ads-software.com, and it gives you a code to put it wherever you want the slider to appear. I want it to appear on the top of the homepage, and the only place where I can insert the code is home.php, but when I insert it here, the slider repeats at the bottom of every post, making this weird. I thought I should insert it in index.php, but the slider doesn’t appear.
This is my website https://www.necenzuratinarges.ro. You can see at the top the moving slider with 4 featured posts. I solved this using a static page, as I said earlier, but the problem is that I want it to show on my homepage and I don’t know where to put the code for the slider, which is <?php if (function_exists(“drawslider”)){ drawslider(); }; ?>
