# Cannot add Featured Posts

 * I have created four posts in the general WordPress menu. I want to add them as
   featured posts in the Kale theme, however when I go to the featured posts customizing
   page there is no content in the drop down menus under Post 1, Post 2 or Post 
   3.
    I tried inserting the post URl straight into the box but that didn’t work.
   I tried deleting the stock post and deleting it from the trash folder as I read
   that on the forum. My featured posts are now just three stock photos saying “
   POST ID:” underneath.
 * How do I get the posts I created to come up as options in the drop down menu 
   for featured posts?
 * Thanks very much (I’m new to wordpress)

 * Hi there,
 * Thank you for getting in touch with us.
 * Do you see your newly created posts in Posts → All Posts section? If there are
   posts then go to Appearance → Customize → Front Page → Featured Posts and open
   Posts 1-3 drop down list. If you are still have an empty list try to deactivate
   the theme and activate it again. It might be also some plugin conflict.
 * Please let me know how it goes.
 * Thank you for your time in this.
 * Best regards,
