Where do I find the settings for the date range of recent photos please?

    You can select Recent for a multiple photos block. The number of photos to show is on the display tab for the content block; unfortunately I don't see anywhere to enter a time range.

    Hi Denise,
    I've selected 'recent photos' for the slide show content block - cant see any way of setting the number of images or rows as is possible when selecting the 'multiple photos' content block - am I missing something?

    I don't see the option for a slideshow - I assume it doesn't exist.

    I dont think I'm explaining things well - on my home page I have 'slide show' selected from Add Content Blocks, Photos, Slideshow.
    In the Slideshow settings I have selected 'recent photos' but there doesn't appear to be any indication of what 'recent' is.
    In the Multiple photos block I can select recent photos and limit the number of rows, but not, it appears the actual number of photos:(

    I don't think there is an answer to my original question:(

    Set up a hidden gallery with the pictures you want to use for the slideshow, or a smart gallery with a keyword search.
    I put the keyword "_all_pictures" in every picture I want to show up in my most recent menu and link to it.

    Cheers,

    Thanks Dennis,
    I'm going to ask the question of the Heroes before going any further. I'm not spending much time on my site and really don't want to have to use a work around for something that was comparatively easy to set up previously.
    Thanks anyway,
