    I’m having issues trying to get the featured content slider working on my home page. Here is the site: http://commercialvehiclefinancingnj.com and right now, everything is showing as vertical content on the home page. Per the instructions, the featured images have been set and the homepage theme is set for slider. However, the values of the featured content are blank / and one reads “false”

    As an aside, I would like to remove the date and comments on my posts, but can’t figure that out.

    @karlcurrentsnj-com: I checked your site and the Featured Slider seems to be working fine.
    To remove the date and comments on my posts, go to Dashboard=> Appearance=> Customize=> Theme Options=> Custom CSS:

    #main .entry-meta {
    display: none;
}

    Let me know further.

    Hi Mahesh, I did set the code into the custom CSS and it said, “Cheating Huh?” Your are not allowed to customize this site.

    Also, I’m pretty sure that we’re talking about separate things. I said featured slider, but the I’m really referring to the Featured “content” slider which is available on the site. I want to try to get the posts under the secondary menu and main slider to appear horizontally and scroll left or right. this is a feature that is used on the main Full Frame theme demo.

    Right now, the posts are running vertically up down the page.

    Please provide a little more help on both topics.

    @karlcurrentsnj-com: I did set the code into the custom CSS and it said, “Cheating Huh?” Your are not allowed to customize this site. I don’t understand how this came upon.
    And yes, now I get which slider you really meant, sorry.
    It seems that you have selected Featured Post Content, but for some reasons, no posts are being displayed. Have you put the Post id in the Customizer’s Featured Post # option.
    Please check and let me know further.

    Hi Manesh, I went to featured post #’s and put in the permalinks and that is not working. I don’t see where a post id is. Can you be more specific?

    @karlcurrentsnj-com: For Post ids, please install Catch IDs plugin: https://wordpress.org/plugins/catch-ids/
    After activating the plugin, you’ll see Post ID column in Posts pages in Admin Dashboard.
    Then put your desired post ID in Featured Post # in customizer.

    Hey Mahesh, that worked to get the slider on the home page. IF you look now, i have another issue. The posts won’t remove themselves from above the content slider. So, how do I get rid of the post and keep the content sliders?

    Hi Stephanie,

    Do you mean to remove the section displaying Custom Home Page Text? If so, go to Dashboard=> Appearance=> Customize=> Theme Options=> Custom CSS box and add the following CSS:

    .home #content {
    display: none;
}

    Regards,
    Mahesh
