I think I understand what you are saying now.

Without sounding lazy, I was hoping there would be a way to do this where the dynamic slide randomly picks an image to use for its background from a selection of 3 or 4 images. And hopefully this would not alter my posts or alter how I post.

Is there a way around this without me having to alter the way I make my posts? If the best or easiest option is to simply select a custom field (given by ACF) then that is fine, I will give it a shot. ??

Ok, no worries. ??

Thanks! That looks a bit complex for me, and then I found this: https://smartslider3.helpscoutdocs.com/article/105-image-from-folder. This would work too, right?

Thanks for the reply!

I very rarely use featured images (and don’t really want to set those for my posts). So the images I want to appear in these recent post slides would need to be called upon for just in these slides.

I worked out this slider can, in fact, do just as I need (in Dynamic slides)!
