    hi everyone
    I'm just a newbie in blogging and I have downloaded a template with slider for my blog, but I don't know how to deal with it, in short I need to know if there's something I should do to make the slider displays the latest 5 posts automatically or should I add every post I write in slider manually?

    The other thing I wanna know is very similar to the above issue, but here with the 'recent posts' gadget; the demo of the template in recent post gadget has included 5 latest posts, but when I downloaded the template I've got just an empty 'recent posts' gadget even though I already written 10 post, yet the gadget is still empty!!! what should I do ?
    thank you in advance
    this my blog

    What slider are you using?

    Admittedly I am not sure I "get" what you are saying about the recent posts, but maybe this will help.

    Enter the administrator page elements (Dashboard → Design or Dashboard → Layout in the new Blogger design).
    Add a new feed widget, with the following URL’s: To show the recent posts:
    http://BLOGNAME.blogspot.com/feeds/posts/default
    To display the latest comments: http://BLOGNAME.blogspot.com/feeds/comments/default

    thank you for your help, but unfortunately it did not work; I still have 'recent gadget' title with empty feed. here is the HTML code related to 'recent posts'
    <div style='height:5px;clear:both;'/>
    
            <b:section class='sidebar' id='sidebarright' preferred='yes'>
              <b:widget id='HTML1' locked='false' title='Recent Posts' type='HTML'>
                <b:includable id='main'>
      <!-- only display title if it's non-empty -->
      <b:if cond='data:title != &quot;&quot;'>
        <h2 class='title'><data:title/></h2>
      </b:if>
      <div class='widget-content'>
        <data:content/>
      </div>
    
      <b:include name='quickedit'/>
    </b:includable>
              </b:widget>
              <b:widget id='Feed2' locked='false' title='Blogger Templates' type='Feed'>
                <b:includable id='main'>
        <h2><data:title/></h2>
        <div class='widget-content' expr:id='data:widget.instanceId + &quot;_feedItemListDisplay&quot;'>
          <span style='filter: alpha(25); opacity: 0.25;'>
            <a expr:href='data:feedUrl'><data:loadingMsg/></a>
          </span>
        </div>
        <b:include name='quickedit'/>
      </b:includable>
              </b:widget>
              <b:widget id='HTML3' locked='false' title='Theme Support' type='HTML'>
                <b:includable id='main'>
      <!-- only display title if it's none-empty -->
      <b:if cond='data:title != &quot;&quot;'>
        <h2 class='title'><data:title/></h2>
