How to display wordpress home page as featured items with photo?

Hello I tried so hard to find out how to make my home page look like this website
http://www.harvesteating.com/ where in the home page,the post items are arranged and showed along with the picture associated with the post and if the user go to the website,they will see the post titled the various posts along with the picture.In this case it is Whole Wheat Baguettes,How To Make Cream of Tomato Soup etc being shown along with the picture.Can someone tell me what page or plugin should I add for displaying my home page like this.Thanks in advance.

 

use this it is called gallery

 

I see that "Featured Content Gallery creates an automated, fully customizable rotating image gallery anywhere within your WordPress site." That is a different thing,ie the content info gets rotated along the top most part of the home page,but what I want is a magazine like look where you will be able to see the individual post info and which image is also there and will be kept as static.Like how it was shown in the content of the above website

 

This requires a bit of coding knowledge to do manually. It's really difficult for any plugin to do this since it really depends on your theme.

You're better off looking for a new theme or learning how to do this manually. If you need help, I can give you 1 on 1 pointers on what to do. Just send me your blog in a PM if you want.

 

I know some basics of coding,but not that much,what I am trying to do is setup a website where my viewers will see all my posts heading and when they click on it they will be able to see it.Hey can you show me how does the featured content gallery look like in a blog?I am sure that is not the one which I want

 

I�m now on the verge of migrating to a new host and domain. Good thing I read your comment.

 

This is the code for your featured image gallery...........

<div id="featured">

<script type="text/javascript">
function startGallery() {
var myGallery = new gallery($('myGallery'), {
timed: true
});
}
jQuery(document).ready(function(){ startGallery(); });
</script>

<style type="text/css">

.jdGallery .slideInfoZone
{
height: 60px;
}
</style>

 

I agree that you need some coding knowledge to add this feature to your existing theme. Or better yet, find a theme that would be able to do this for you.

 

You do not need a lot of coding knowledge. Just need to know how to do basic HTML / CSS. There are plenty of slider plugins available online.

The above site has great slider scripts. You go to these script sites, they have a detailed tutorial and example files in the download.

Copy and paste this in your desired WordPress files, and you can have a slider.

But remember, that is set manually and you will have to go in theme files to change it.

That is if you do not know how to code.

But if you do know how to code, you can use WordPress Hooks and other functions to call recent posts, sticky posts etc.

If you need help getting this feature built-in your theme, I can do it for you for a small fee. Let me know via PM.

 

Hello I tried installing various plugins,none seems to serve my purpose.Let me reveal my site.I am having a video site showing different videos,so my users should be able to see the thumbnail and short description of that video and if someone clicks on read more,they should be able to go to the individual posts showing videos.
Can you suggest me this for video logging websites?Also I have one more doubt,if one of my competitor is using the same wordpress theme as mine competing for same slot for 1st rank for a specific search term will one of my site be considered as duplicate content and then penalized?
