How to add new slides to slider from admin panel

Hi,

At this moment one of the easiest ways to create slider is create set of hidden posts and use them as a source for generating slides in the website (you use then featured posts as a slide image). You can also mark them by one tag and the use getPostsByTags to find these posts.

Alternatively you can use image options to specify slider images as a theme options. But then you have to specify options for all slides even if they will be unused (e.g. you must prepare options for 8 slides, when 3 will be used usually).

I understood you good,  Tomasz! Thank you for such fast answer and thank you for help. I was thinking on the second variant with theme options but you finished my idea and I will try this way. I will aslo check the first idea and will look how it is working in Portfolio theme from the code side. Once again, thank you so much!
