Post Slider
This slider takes advantage of the display function setup by the Theme Blvd Sliders plugin, except for it allows you to dynamically generate the slider based on a series of posts. The idea here is to mimic what you could theoretically setup with the plugin’s Slider Manager and a custom slider, but still give you that nice automation feature.
