Hello, I know this a basic question but how do you add the home page slider?

In the slider place just have text “Home”.

    Hi Paulo

    Have you taken a look at the slider part of the documentation? This might answer your question.

    Hi Greg
    I did look at the Vantage documentation, but the Focus theme is slightly different.
    The path Appearance > Theme Settings > Home does not exist in Focus, so cannot choose Home Page Slider.
    In the Meta Slider settings the theme is not there.
    I installed Focus free version and then upgraded. Do you think uninstalling and installing from the zip file will fix this?
    Thanks

    Very sorry! Totally my bad there, not sure why I thought you were using Vantage.

    The Focus home page slider just displays your latest posts. You just need to make sure that your featured images are set for all your posts. Do you need help with this?

    Ok, got it, had the front page as Static Page instead of Your Latest Posts!
    Any suggestions on the featured image size?

  5. Greg Priday Staff 11 years, 10 months ago

    WordPress will scale the featured images for you, so just make sure you upload the biggest image you can. For the slider, Focus scales them down to 1280px by 768px.

    Hi Greg I purchased the premium Focus theme but cannot figure out how to add a header video? How is that done?
