I have a suggestion for the Custom Query Widget, when using it in the main page slider.– allow to choose as many pages/posts/categories/tags as you wish (like today, check)
– set a constant integer as “max. Numbers displayed”
– the Custom Query Widget then selects the “max. Numbers” and renders them out to the main page
– if main page is reloaded, a different set of featured images is displayed, always based on “max. Numbers” and the chosen pages/posts/etc.What do you think? That would give us some more dynamic on the main page.
Or is this already possible and I do not see the option?Thx for your thoughts.

What’s the advantage of some users seeing some content and other other content, unless of course you’re A/B testing? I doubt all your content is that good that it doesn’t matter what you’re displaying on the front page. There should always be a structure and logic in the content you are displaying, even if it’s related to the main content, its presence should still make sense. But here’s the deal: If you get 9 other people to approve of this feature I will implement it.

But let me explain a bit more in detail:
– I am using the Enlightenment theme for a (personal) Travel site, something like a logbook/photobook
– we have documented all our vacations over the last 8 years, from 4 week holidays, one week journeys, to weekend trips
– so there are something around 50 or so unique travel items (pages)
– all items have beautiful photos, each one has a very unique featured image and an introduction text
– each of our trips is categorized in one of three main categories, each with its own teaser slider–> so actually the main top slider is used as a surprise element for us – just like “opening” a book on a random page…
Got my idea? 😉
If that did not help…: PEOPLE PLEASE VOTE! *biggrin*

Personally I would showcase the 3 big categories on the front page and split each of those categories by other topics. Something like:
- Urban exploration
- London
- Paris
- Amsterdam
- Wildlife
- Africa
- South America
- Australia
- Mountain Climbing
- The Alps
- Rocky Mountains
- Himalaya

So they have to either browse through their history, which nowadays it huge even for the past day or search your website but my bet is they will repeatedly hit the refresh button.
Having a lot of content is not a reason not to have a clear navigation structure. Are you larger than TripAdvisor.com? You may have an emotional attachment to all your documented travels but people won’t coming to your website curious were you’ve been the past year, they’ll be coming searching for precise topics like “What is there to do Moscow during the night?” or “What is there to see around Athens?”. Please correct me if I’m wrong.

Just for me and my girlfriend, just a personal travel logbook.
I will post the link in the next reply, please delete it after you received it… Everyone else who is interested in the site please let me know and we can organize some kind of access.

Big slider: “hard” selection of all travel events in 2014
Further down, 3 sliders w/ the three main categories of trips we have defined for ourselves, in between the links to the category pages itself.So my idea is to spice the big slider up with some random surprise elements, even from the past so they are not forgotten 😉
