I had a question regarding the slider. Is it possible to have a custom slider on each page? On the home page I would like it to have 4 posts in the slider, however; on a different page I would like the posts in the slider to be different. Is this possible?

With a child theme, almost anything is possible. Typically, the slider only shows up on the front/main/index page.

First of all, read the rules and include a link to your page.

Second, which pages, which posts? (You do understand the difference between posts and pages, right?)

Welcome aboard,

Sorry Kenneth, was up late last night trying to find a solution and did not get to reading the rules. My site is test.collegecouponaddict.com

Now as for what I am trying to accomplish with the slider:

On the main products page I want to have the slider show the 4 different subcategories of products. Pageids 16,18,20,22.

Then, on the subcategories of products- (pageids 16,18,20,22) I would like to have a slider with different pages (I will be making a page for each actual product).

As I’m really new to WordPress, I apologize ahead of time for any communication errors on my end such as pages and posts. I am not using posts on my page because I am just using it for a tiny informational site for a family business, not actually as a blog.

Thank you for your help!

I would suggest using a separate slider plugin to achieve this. It’ll be much easier and less coding required, if at all.
