But, can I make it so it shows the full width of the image only and no excerpt/read more? </p> http://www.vfxdude.com/forum/topic/blog-page-big-feature-on-front-page#post-628 Sat, 02 Jan 2010 04:59:21 +0000 timlawrence25 628@http://www.vfxdude.com/forum/ <p>Yeah, try this. You will need to name your category slug &quot;features&quot;</p> <p>[bfslider name=&quot;features&quot; type=&quot;category&quot;] </p> http://www.vfxdude.com/forum/topic/blog-page-big-feature-on-front-page#post-624 Sat, 02 Jan 2010 02:59:07 +0000 kaws 624@http://www.vfxdude.com/forum/ <p>I can&#39;t figure it out so it just uses the &quot;Features&quot; category post as the slider feed. Am I missing something?? </p> http://www.vfxdude.com/forum/topic/blog-page-big-feature-on-front-page#post-622 Sat, 02 Jan 2010 02:21:42 +0000 timlawrence25 622@http://www.vfxdude.com/forum/ <p>for #2 Vfxdude tells you how to do this within his site. look up the bfslider stuff, you can change the parameters of which post or page to use. </p> <p>here is the link:<br /> <a href="http://www.vfxdude.com/bigfeature/2009/08/the-bf-slider/" rel="nofollow">http://www.vfxdude.com/bigfeature/2009/08/the-bf-slider/</a></p> <p>And I&#39;m still waiting on number 3. </p> http://www.vfxdude.com/forum/topic/blog-page-big-feature-on-front-page#post-621 Sat, 02 Jan 2010 00:47:23 +0000 kaws 621@http://www.vfxdude.com/forum/ <p>Yeah it worked perfectly, much appreciated. Any word on 2 &amp; 3 yet?? lol </p> http://www.vfxdude.com/forum/topic/blog-page-big-feature-on-front-page#post-620 Sat, 02 Jan 2010 00:39:15 +0000 timlawrence25 620@http://www.vfxdude.com/forum/ <p>For question #1 you may want to check wordpress setting (Readings). Don&#39;t define a post page and only define a frontpage. If you define a post page in wordpress, all the categories will go to this page (if I remember correctly). </p> http://www.vfxdude.com/forum/topic/blog-page-big-feature-on-front-page#post-617 Fri, 01 Jan 2010 23:18:17 +0000 kaws 617@http://www.vfxdude.com/forum/ <p>Thanks Vfxdude for a wonderful theme even though I have a few questions.</p> <p>1.) On my Blog page I only want to show posts that are categorized as Blog or any child of the Blog category. I set the custom field with category and my blog category # which is 5 but when I post a feature, my features are showing on the blog page as well, how do I make it so none of my posts under the Features category show on the blog page?</p> <p>2.) On the front page, I have the slider. Is there anyway to make it so any post under the Featured category it will drag the first image of that and use it in the slider and link that image to the Featured post? Or do I always have to make a &quot;slide2&quot; &quot;slide3&quot; &quot;slide4&quot; page etc.?</p> <p>3.) How can I make my Featured POSTS be full page rather than like a blog post and have the sidebar?</p> <p>Thanks in advance. </p>
