    If I add an image using an url the image shows normally on the post but in frontpage slider the images are broken. To fix this issue I have to download the pictures locally to the server for it to work.

    I have private WordPress installation. Everything else is working great.

    Thanks for the great work you have done with the Graphene theme.

    Cheers,

    Yes, the slider can only display pictures that are stored in your database. So they have to be uploaded to your own server. This is to prevent hotlinking of images.
