 * Hi,
    The demo here [http://www.templateexpress.com/bota/](http://www.templateexpress.com/bota/)
   features a slider on the homepage. Is this actually part of the theme? If so,
   I can’t find any setting to do with it.
 * Thanks. Pretty theme

 * Thanks for getting back to me. The link helped. Don’t know how I missed it.
    
   I’ve created the ‘Featured’ category and added 3 posts with featured images, 
   and the slider isn’t showing.
 * Do the images have to be the recommended size in order for them to display.

 * No they don’t have to be that size to display

 * I’m stuck on this too, I’ve followed the instructions, created the category with
   the slug and the posts but the slider does not show up.
 * I’ve tried re-installing the theme and activating and deactivating the theme 
   but the slider does not appear. Have I missed something? I’ve seen others with
   the same issue but they seem to have got it working somehow?
 * Is there a manual edit I could try in the themes files to activate it maybe?

 * My mistake!
 * I didn’t realise from the instructions that the slider is only usable on the 
   custom_home page template. It is indeed working on a page with that template.
 * I was expecting it just to show on the home page. I can probably edit the code
   to sort that now though. Thanks.
