Hi,

I can’t seem to change or update the category reflected in the featured slider images.

I’m talking about the category indicated in the ribbon above the post title on my site (date him, keep him, meet him, etc):

http://www.executivearmcandy.com

I’ve selected multiple categories per post and the primary category is different than the one that appears in the featured slider image. For example, if I select “date him and keep him” as categories on the edit post page and “keep him” is a primary category, the featured slider image still shows the ribbon as “date him”. How do I correct this?

Thanks!

Hi, If it is chosen as post sticky in another category, it is categorically superior. So you should try to remove the sticky feature from that post.
Thanks

I tried removing the sticky post removed the categories, updated the post (re-published it). Then I re-added one category and made it a sticky post, hit update. It did not update the category tag in the slider.

Is there something else I can try?

Now, let me clarify this issue. Featured slider feature shows either the last post or the sticky post. If the post you want to show is custom, you need to make them sticky. But the sticky order is made according to the date. To change its position, you need to edit and update the post date.

Hi Serkan,

I think you misunderstood my question, or I’m misunderstanding your instructions.

Let me explain the issue a different way:

When I write a new post, I’ll select a category for that post. Then I’ll publish it as a sticky post so that the featured image appears in the slider on the home page. The category appears in the ribbon above the post title in the slider. My categories are “Keep Him”, “Date Him”, “Meet Him”, and “Mind Over Money”.

When I write a new post and select 2 categories for the post, the one I set as the primary category does not appear above the post title in the slider. I’m trying to understand how I can control which category appears in the slider on the featured image of the post if multiple categories are selected.

I tried to unpublish the post, remove the categories, republish the post, unpublish the post, add categories in a different order. It doesn’t work.

I’m not concerned about the order in which the featured images or posts appear in the slider. I’m concerned with which category tag appears on featured images.

Thanks!

I understood your problem. I will contact the wordpress developer and let you know.

Sorry for the delay. Our developers were in a busy period. I will remind them now. They will reply you back soon.
Thanks for your patience.

Hi, how do you set a category as the primary category, with a plugin? As far as I know, WordPress doesn’t have this feature by default.
