I am creating a website with static home, main, and child pages. For some reason, the slider on the homepage is only displaying one out of the 4 pages I indicated to show. Can someone tell me what my slider settings should be set at in order to view all 4 pages?

Graphene Options >> Slider Options >> “What do you want to show in the slider”

Make sure you select “Show specific posts/pages “

Graphene Options >> Slider Options >> “Posts and/or pages to display”

“Enter ID of posts and/or pages to be displayed, separated by comma. Example: 1,13,45,33

Applicable only if Show specific posts/pages is selected above. “

You could also do this by category, however. What are your current settings?

By “ID”, you mean the title, or something else? I read elsewhere not to add a title…

WordPress assigns everything its own unique ID. You can find it by using your browser’s “View Source” function or Firebug.

This will give you a bit of help:

Here are my present slider settings:

Disable slider: unchecked

Extend slider to full width of theme: unchecked

WHat do you want to show in slider: Show specific posts/pages

Posts and/or pages to display: 2,1,3,4

Number of posts to display: 3

Slide image” Don’t show image

Custom slider image URL: BLANK

Slider display style: thumbnail and excerpt

Slider animation: horizontal slide

Slider height: 200 px

Slider speed: 7000 milliseconds

Slider transition speed: 300 milliseconds

Move slider to bottom of page: unchecked

NOTE: I do not have any pages categorized since my intention is to build a website and not a blog.

So I believe my problem lies in the the setting that is listed bold above (Posts and/or pages to display). I am using the page order number that is listed in the quick edit dialog box for each page. Is that correct?

Are you sure there are pages/posts with the IDs of 1, 3, and 4? Trying to access them on your site all leads to 404 Error.

http://69.195.124.72/~phillyfl/?p=3

http://69.195.124.72/~phillyfl/?p=4

I do not see IDs in any of my website page URLs, they only end in a backslash. For example, the ABOUT page is one of the pages I want to show in the slider. That URL is: http://69.195.124.72/~phillyfl/about/

Where do I locate the page ID?

Use your browser’s “View Source” function and search for the <body> tag. The ID is in that tag.

For instance, this page:

http://69.195.124.72/~phillyfl/racing/general-rules/

has this body tag:

<body class="page page-id-279 page-child parent-pageid-22 page-template-default custom-background two_col_left two-columns">

which means that page’s id is 279
