• Hi

    I hope this will help some people. It frustrated me for a while and I couldn’t find anything else posted about this so here goes. Perhaps it may be relevant to other Sliders and other themes:

    Symptoms
    ————
    When logged in to wp-admin the slider works fine. That is, looking at the website running on a new tab, while logged into the wp-admin dashboard on another, I can see the slider working and cycling through the slides I specified.

    When logged out of wp-admin and viewing the live site, I found that only one slide showed up and that was it.

    Solution
    ———
    The posts which you have set to category ‘slider’ to be included in the slider when it runs, ALL OF THESE NEED TO BE SET TO ‘PUBLIC’ rather than ‘private’. If they are set to private then they won’t show in the slider if you are not logged in.

    Hope that helps!

    Cheers
