Awesome Slider – Just Needs Better Directions

I installed this slider. Using the readme, I was able to quickly get the default slider loaded in with the 3 test images adding the snippet to the header.php file. I was running into the same problem everyone else was having, I figured out where to put the shortcode but now how do I upload more images?

When you add images, it pulls the data from your site to populate the information based on the design you’re using. If you’re like me and you just want an image like design one, all you have to do is, add new image – which actually creates a post – give the post a title and add a featured image and then hit the publish button.

The slider feeds off of the featured image for each post. This might be obvious for some but it took me a couple of hours playing with it to figure it out. The rest of the settings work great, just plug it into the shortcode and voila! it all works great.

Note:
Default image size is 980 x 300.

Thanks for a great plugin!
