    Hi there !

    First of all I love this theme ! Exactly was I was looking for !
    There are a few mods I need to do though and I can’t manage to do them.

    First of all I’d like to have the featured image as a mosaic of images not just one pic. And when you click on the post, the featured mosaic that appears on the left is clickable to open the gallery as a slideshow.

    I’ve tried several plugins but nothing really worked.

    Thanks !
    Ciaran

    Hi Ciaran,

    I’m glad you’re enjoying Dyad!

    To make sure I’m understanding you correctly: Is your aim to turn the featured image on individual posts (such as this one) into a slider?

    A change such as that is complex and would take some fairly advanced knowledge of PHP, HTML, and CSS to implement. While that goes beyond the scope of support this forum is intended for, you could set up a child theme and have an experiment.

    Alternatively, you may be interested in the Jetpack plugin’s Tiled Gallery feature:

    https://jetpack.com/support/tiled-galleries/

    From the above documentation you’ll see that you can use Jetpack to add a mosaic style collection of images to your post’s main content (on the right). Each image in the mosaic will open into a slider when clicked on.

    If you have Jetpack installed then you can also add a slider of your posts to the very top of your site’s front page. To do this, navigate to Appearance > Customize > Featured Content and set a “Tag name.” From there, tag posts that you want to feature in the front page slider with that tag name.

    Let me know if that information helps or if you have further questions.
