    ‘m trying to use the featured content slider found at http://css-tricks.com/creating-a-slick-auto-playing-featured-content-slider/ with a wordpress blog. The goal is to make it so that I could create a post in wordpress and have the slider auto update with the new content with me still having controle over which content shows up. Any ideas how I would go about integrating the two. I haven’t dabbled to much with the inner working of wordpress to be able to understand exactly how to go about doing this.

    ultimately the images would be replaced by videos.

    thanks for your help,

    Josh
