Did all theme setup according to documentation:
– created Business Template page (set as home page)
– created 2 posts and set featured image (1038px width, using Narrow template – http://albars.azurewebsites.net/blog/)
– in the slider options set number of slides to 2
– in the featured post/page slider options specified id of the previous 2 posts

As a result, http://albars.azurewebsites.net renders no content for the slider.

All plug-ins disabled
Theme version: 1.2.3
Site: http://albars.azurewebsites.net

Hi 3csynergy,

It seems you have not uploaded featured images. Make sure you have set featured image. You will see set featured image option on right hand side of the post editor

Thanks that was it!!!!
— can you adjust the documentation to reflect this step? Or did I miss where this information is posted?
I kind of see where step 13 states featured images, but for newbies like me you may need to explicitly list the step you told me 🙂
