 * I’m just wondering if there is a way to offset the posts displayed so the slider
   only shows posts 4, 5, 6 etc. and not 1, 2, 3.

 * Built into the plugin, no. What you can do, if comfortable, you can look at the
   file views/display.php and find the $flex_args array. You can add an “offset”
   argument to that array to skip posts. Find more info here: [https://codex.wordpress.org/Class_Reference/WP_Query#Pagination_Parameters](https://codex.wordpress.org/Class_Reference/WP_Query#Pagination_Parameters)
 * So if you add the offset argument to the plugin it’ll look like this:
    $flex_args
   = array( ‘cat’ => $categories, ‘post_status’ => ‘publish’, ‘post_type’ => $post_type_array,‘
   showposts’ => $slider_count, ‘ignore_sticky_posts’ => true, ‘offset’ => 3, );
