# Slider setup

 * Yesterday I bought on ThemeForest my first WP press (Curio) and I’m trying to
   customize it.
 * The theme has several sliders provided, so I’m trying to setup a nice one, but
   I’m having hard times.
 * Documentation doesn’t explain how to do, I googled and youtubed but without good
   results.
 * I installed WP Nivo Slider plugin (do I need it?), and I was able to almost accomplish
   my task.
 * I see the different slider frames but not images.
 * Anybody can help?
 * Thanks

 * As this is a commercial theme and its template files are not publically accessible,
   you need to seek support from the theme vendors.

 * Esmi,
    you’re right and I have asked support on Theme Forest.
 * But usually what are normal steps to setup a slideshow within WP?
 * Theme author said that I don’t need any additional plugin. so I removed WP Nivo
   Slider.
 * Could you please indicate me the correct normal sequence step by step?
 * Thanks a lot
    🙂

 * There is no slideshow functionality in WordPress core, so this must be part of
   your theme.

 * But don’t I have to go to Dashboard, Slideshow, create a new Slideshow, a new
   Category and some new posts and upload some images and feature them?
 * Then to go to Theme setting options for the theme?
 * Isn’t this the way?

 * Not in all themes, no.
