Hi! First of all, big thanx for the great theme. And here is my question:

I have created custom post type “books”. How can I change the slider to show “books” instead of “post”

Graphene Theme Options

->

Slider Options

->

What do you want to show in the slider

->

Show specific posts/pages

Go to posts on dashboard and hover the mouse on “books” post.

you’ll see an address on the statu bar.

ex.yoursite.com/wp-admin/post.php?post=9&action=edit

in the example.. “9” is your post ID

Hi! Thank you for this tip. But I have already tried to use this option of slider. I have provided ID of the post and saved all other options not changed. Slider is empty. 🙁

Hi! Here is link to my test web site: http://musicnow.pl/

As you can see there is “Books” page for all books items.

You would need to create a child theme first for this. See here for instructions:

Post back again when you’ve created a child theme, or if you need any help doing that.

Hi Syahir,

I have already created child theme. I have created folder and styles.css file for it. Do I need to make some php files for it?

Yes, make a functions.php file in your child theme and add this code:
```
<?php

/**

* Modify the post types to be displayed in the slider

*/

function graphene_slider_post_type(){

return array( 'post-type' );

}

add_filter( 'graphene_slider_post_type', 'graphene_slider_post_type' );
```
Replace post-type with the post type you want to be displayed in the slider.
