How to add featured slides
Featured slides are the images that appear on the front page of the church website. If more than one featured slide is published at a time, the slides will rotate through.
Uploading a new image to a slide:
- Crop the slide to the desired dimensions (960×400). If the image is of a different size, the website will resize it, and cut off any portions that are outside those dimensions
- Login by going to www.msdachurch.org/wp-admin and entering your credentials
- Select Media –> Slide from the left sidebar
- Select “Add Slide” from the top of the page
- Fill out desired fields (all the text fields are optional)
- On the right hand side (at the bottom), select “Set Featured Image”
- Select an image from the media library, or upload a new one by using the appropriate tab
- Click: “Set Featured image”
- Click: Publish
To remove a slide from Published status
- After logging in, go to Media –> Slide
- Click on the Published link
- Select the slide you wish to de-publish
- Choose edit or “Quick edit”
- Mark the slide as draft and update.
