 * Is there a way to have a specific post be always stuck to the front page?
 * I currently have the home page show the latest posts.
 * Is there a way to either have the home page show a specific post?
 * Or is there a way to have the home page show a static page, but that page be 
   a recent post?
 * Thank you,
    Brandon

 * I tried setting the post as ‘sticky’ under the visibility section, but that didn’t
   seem to do anything.

 * Options:
    1. Create a featured category, put the posts you wish to show in the
   slider in the “featured” category and use it as a filter for the slider. 2. For
   the entire homepage to show specific posts, you need to create a new page template
   that does that. 3. For the static homepage, see my reply [here](http://wordpress.org/support/topic/post-in-home-page-1?replies=3)
   to see how to list posts on a static page. 4. If you want sticky posts to appear
   in the slider, in /inc/featured.php change ignore_sticky_posts to 0 instead of
   1.

 * Did I miss something?
    This posts slider on the home page seems like a good idea.
   Wher can i find it? is it a plugin, or is it part of the hueman theme?

 * If you set Theme Options > Blog > Featured Post Count to more than 1 it will 
   turn into a slider. Example can be seen on the [demo page](http://demo.alxmedia.se/hueman/).
