Hi, thank you both for replying.
More info as requested:
On the home page of my website, https://www.puzzlewalks.com.au, I am wanting to have a slider showing the featured images of some pages to showcase new puzzle walks. But having just the title of the page on the slider image doesn’t give enough information. I would really like another line there saying something like “new puzzle walk available now”.
If these were posts, the category of the post would appear in a little blue box above the title (like in the Dara demo), which would fulfil that function for me. But with pages, there are no categories. So I used the plugin to add categories to pages, but that did not make the category appear on the featured images on the home page.
I have tried using other slider plugins rather than the default Jetpack one that comes with the Dara theme, but I haven’t been able to find one that both positions the slider nicely and lets me customise the title or add a subtitle in the way that I am trying to do.
I hope this helps, and thank you for your time.
