      How can I activate the Slider? I see the Slider in the WP admin under ‘Widgets’ but I can’t seem to activate the slider.

      How can I add all the other features just like in the demo? http://demo.appfinite.com/optimal/

        In the Optimal demo, we’re using the Genesis Responsive Slider – http://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/genesis-responsive-slider/ so make sure you have that downloaded in your plugins area, and then click activate.

        For basic instructions on how to install this plugin you can take a look here – https://appfinite.com/tutorials/how-to-add-the-genesis-responsive-slider/

        Let me know if that helps

          Adding the Genesis Responsive Slider to your homepage
          To add the Genesis Responsive Slider to your homepage, you will need to go to your widgets section http://yoursite.com/wp-admin/widgets.php. Then look for the Genesis Responsive Slider widget, and drag this to the widget/sidebar titled “Slideshow Area” on the right (or wherever you would like it to show).

          I don’t have “Slideshow Area” in my widget/sidebar list on the right?

            The widget area is labeled “Slider“.  Its the 4th widget from the top.

              I’m trying to add photos but am unsuccessful. I added a photo to a page but I don’t see a way of adding that photo to the slider. Please help.

                You have to upload a Featured Image to your page or post.  Then add the ID into your slider settings.
