Genesis Slider

Genesis Slider allows you to create a simple slider that displays the featured image, along with the title and excerpt from each post.

It includes options for auto-progress and the dimensions of your slideshow. It also allows you to choose to display posts or pages, what category to pull from, and even the specific post IDs of the posts you want to display. Finally, you can place the slider into a widget area.

Note: Genesis Slider only supports Genesis child themes.
