Custom field for slider?

    Hello, I am attempting to use a custom field on my posts to change the image that is used in the home page post slider.

    I would like to use an image that is larger than the featured image but I do also use the featured images elsewhere.

    I use a child theme. I would just need to know where the code is that selects which image is used in the slider and what to add to my functions file.

    Thank you!

    If you’re already using a child theme then you can simply copy slider.php into your child theme folder then edit it. In line 49 of that file you can see echo $image_src; You’d want to set that variable to your custom field’s content.
