    You helped me with the exact same question in 2018 and you changed some files to make it work, unfortunately I dont remember what you did:

    I want to use the featured slider, but display a selected number of specific categories there. I now can give each post a tag or select one category, but I want to select let‘s say 5 out of 7 categories. Really appreciate your help.

    Best,
    Matthias

    Hi,

    I can't access your site, so please go to Appearance → Theme Editor:

    Select theme to edit: Soledad,

    Navigate to functions.php (Theme Functions), find: (line 4274)

    $featured_args['tax_query'] = array(
                    array(
                        'taxonomy' => 'post_tag',
                        'field'    => 'slug',
                        'terms'    => $list_tags
                    ),
                );
    Replace with:

    $featured_args['tax_query'] = array(
                    array(
                        'taxonomy' => 'category',
                        'field'    => 'slug',
                        'terms'    => $list_tags
                    ),
                );

    Repeat this step when you update to the new version.
