How to set up Static Front Page (Home) with Slider?

    I read in another thread that I needed to have the blog post indexed as the homepage. (I’m not sure what that means.)

    I’m guessing, but I created a Page and called it Blog. I didn’t choose any Template, I just left it blank. When I go to the page via URL, I can see the slider: interiorvoyeur dot com /blog.

    I would like to set it to the Home page as a Static Front Page. Next:

    Settings>>Reading

    Front page displays

    Your latest posts

    A static page (select below) <–I choose this one

    Front page: Home <–Current choice
    Posts page: Blog <–Current choice

    Front page is blank. I flipped Home and Blog. Still blank.

    Thanks in advance for your help!

    That is the option you’d need to “show blog index” on home ?? And that should give the slider on home as well.

    Slider options can be set in Theme Options > Blog > Featured… after that.

    Thanks so much!!

    I have it displayed now, but what I did was I chose

    Front page: (empty)
    Posts page: Home

    I don’t know if that messes things up, but I’ll go and set it to:

    Your latest posts

    Just in case. ??

    Thanks again, and thank you for such a beautiful, fun theme!

    It was just me saying the wrong the wrong thing – sorry, glad you got it working!

    Glad you like it, thank you!
