Creating a featured content slideshow

Here's a better formatted version of your featured content/slideshow guide:

Updating Featured Content / Slideshow

The featured content and slideshow on your home page can be updated through the "Media" → "News" section. Creating new slideshow items requires two simple steps.

Step 1: Upload Your Images

Before creating slideshow content, you'll need to upload the images:

  1. Go to "Images" under the Media section
  2. Create a directory if desired for better organization
  3. Upload your slideshow images into that directory

Step 2: Create Slideshow Items

Once your images are uploaded, follow these steps to add them to your slideshow:

Adding New Slideshow Items

  1. Navigate to "Media" → "News"
  2. Go to "Manage categories"
  3. Click "Create news category" to create a new slide
  4. Fill in the appropriate options for this slideshow item:
    • Select the image you want to include
    • Important: Enter the dates or set to "Current" (items without proper dates will not display)
  5. Click "Save Changes"
  6. Repeat steps 3-5 for each additional slideshow item

Important Reminders

  • Date Settings: Always set proper dates or use "Current" status, or your slideshow items won't appear
  • Image Selection: Make sure to select the correct uploaded image for each slide
