Small correction though, after short trial & error (if anyone else wants to use this):

if (is_front_page()) {
	$meteor_options['slideshow_quantity'] = 3;
} else {
	$meteor_options['slideshow_quantity'] = $slideshow;
}
$meteor_loop     = new WP_Query( array(

	'post_type'      => 'slide',
	'slideshow'      => $slideshow,
	'posts_per_page' => $meteor_options['slideshow_quantity']

) );

Working now so thanks again! 🙂

Hi! Thanks for response!

If it was my own site I could do what you say.

The thing is that I’m making a site for a customer, and they will constantly add new slides to the gallery and also sometimes add new feature slides to the front page, but the front page should only show 3 in total.

To make it easy for them to manage, I wanted to limit the slideshow on the front page to only show the latest 3 slides even if they add a forth or more (as the max setting currently do, but for all slideshows). This way they won’t have to either change or delete the current 3 ones, as they will “pop out” from being viewed on the front page.

Of course it’s doable to instruct them to always delete the oldest one when they add a new, but this is something I as a developer would like to solve for them, so they won’t have to make potential “errors” just because I couldn’t create a good solution.

Is it not possible to maybe set “max-slides” as meta value or something, as it is with size and other variables?
