In the dashboard
I went to posts> categories> add new Category
Under the “add new category” I just made one called “Blogged” and each time I post anything I want added I make sure to click that in the post, blog or story I click the Blogged to add it to the slider.
If there is an easier way please share if not this is what is working for me.

I think this theme works great and I am enjoying learning how to enrich it. Thank you for the theme layout!
