 * Hi there Pakin,
    I’ve never used your specific theme but i can suggest a plugin
   for you. I’ve used meteor slides and is my preferred method of creating slideshows
   for WordPress sites.
 * This is a link to the plugin:
    [http://wordpress.org/plugins/meteor-slides/](http://wordpress.org/plugins/meteor-slides/)
 * Josh (the author) also has a website providing alot of guidance on how to use
   the plugin here:

 * Hope this helps. If you have any questions feel free to ask.

 * Being a child theme of Twenty Fourteen, the slider in this theme works exactly
   as the parent theme.
 * You’d start by tagging your posts with a specific tag i.e. showcase and then 
   use that tag in the Customizer to pull in the posts for the slider.
 * If you are using the [Fourteen Extended](http://wordpress.org/plugins/fourteen-extended/)
   plugin you’ll be able to set the slider to auto start either in a slide or fade
   transition.
 * Hope that helps.
 * Regards,
    Zulf

 * i am using the fourteen extended. i am not familiar with the theme nor the parent
   theme. i have tagged the post “slide” but still have a few questions.
 * 1) where should the image sit? as a featured image or in the post?
    2) when you
   say go to the “customizer” where are you exactly referring to? under Appearance
   >>Customize i am unsure where to specify this tag.

 * > 1) where should the image sit? as a featured image or in the post?
 * The image should be added as a featured image.
 * > 2) when you say go to the “customizer” where are you exactly referring to? 
   > under Appearance>>Customize i am unsure where to specify this tag.
 * Correct – Appearance>>Customize>>Featured Content is where you’ll need to add
   the tag and Appearance>>Customize>>Featured Slider Options is where the slider
   settings are.
