       		<div id="slideshow">
   
       <?php if ( have_posts() )&nbsp;: while ( have_posts() )&nbsp;: the_post();&nbsp;?>
       <?php endwhile; else:&nbsp;?>
       <p><?php _e('Sorry, no posts matched your criteria.');&nbsp;?></p>
       <?php endif;&nbsp;?>
   
       		</div>
       		<div class="clear gap3"></div>
       	</div>
   
       <?php get_footer(); ?>
       ```
