Built in Slider

    I have installed theme untitled, but the slider does not appear in the header. And now I am trying to set up an Untitled theme by Automattic which should provide a featured header images.
    That’s what they write:

    To set up Untitled’s Front Page Slider:

    Navigate to Settings → Reading.
    Scroll down to the section labeled “Featured Content”.
    Enter the name of a tag.
    Click the blue “Save Changes” button at the bottom.
    Create a post with a featured image that’s at least 1024px wide.
    Note: The featured image will look best at these dimensions: 1440px wide, 400px tall.
    Give the post the tag you declared under Settings → Reading → Featured Content.

    However I don’t see a section labeled “Featured Content” in Settings. I wonder if there is a problem with my WP or the theme itself.

    What am I doing wrong?
    How can I fix this?

    Gerdineke – if you’re on a self-hosted WordPress install, you’ll need to install and activate Jetpack to use the Featured Content slider. Once you’ve done that, the featured content tag is set under Appearance > Customize.

    I see that the readme.txt in this theme is out of date and still references Settings > Reading – I’ll look at getting that updated on our end.

    Let me know how it goes.
