Featured Posts – Selecting Specific Categories (not just one)

    Hi,

    First and foremost, amazing theme. I really love how simple it looks yet offers an extensive array of functionalities.

    I’m trying to select a few categories to select for the Featured Slider. As of now, it defaults to either every category, or a single specified category.

    I was wondering if there was a way that I can select multiple categories that the Featured Slider selects from so that I can specify which content, specifically, gets pulled from different categories (I hope this makes sense).

    Thanks in advance, everyone.

    The easiest way to solve this with existing functionality is to create a category called “Featured” for example, and then just add/remove posts to that category when you want to have them in the slider. Using it as a filter.

    Thanks, Alexander. Appreciate the feedback. When doing this, which is a nice solution, I would like to set the number of posts showing on the page to zero so that only the “Featured” bit is visible (e.g. no content below it). Is there a way to do this? I have looked into setting the number of posts to “0” in WordPress, however it only allows for a minimum of “1”.

    Thanks again for your help.
