Boxes are similar to text widgets, but for ease of use they allow you to insert an image or URL of the media without the need for special code. (Please Note: The “Boxes Element” is not to be confused with the “Box Left”, “Box Middle”, and “Box Right” widget areas which are accessible  via Appearance > Widgets. The “Box Left”, “Box Middle, and “Box Right” will only appear where you have set the “Widgets Element” (http://cyberchimps.com/question/how-to-use-the-widgets-element/). To read more about the “Box Left”, “Box Middle”, and “Box Right” widgets please see here: http://cyberchimps.com/question/how-to-use-the-widgets/ )

Select “Choose File” than navigate to the file or you can manually enter the URL of the image location (if you have an image in your “uploads” directory you can insert the URL there). Tip: The boxes are approximately a max width of 305px. It would be best to try and keep all images the same height and width otherwise your boxes will not look proportional (see bottom image below).
3. Box URL – Insert the URL of the post/page that you want the image to link to here. For example, if it’s your contact page, something similar to http://www.example.com/contact-us/ would go there.
4. In the “Boxes Text” you can add your text. Just remember, the more text you have there, the larger the height of the box will be. Also note that you can only insert text in this field. HTML and other coding will be stripped.
5. Click “Update”

The Carousel is a manual image slider that can be used on a per page basis. This section displays six images/posts at time, but has the ability to navigate left or right through as many images/posts as you would like to use.

Before you can use the Carousel element on a page, you’ll first have to create a Carousel item(s).

To create a “Carousel” first navigate to the following in your WordPress Administration Panels.

1. Carousel > Carousel Category (if you want to use the “default” category you can skip this for now and continue on to “To create a Carousel”, but please note for future reference as when you add the Carousel element to a page it will require a Carousel Category.
2. Add New Carousel Category
3. Create a name.
4. Create a slug, WordPress will automatically create one if you forget or choose to let it create one for you.
5. Select a Parent if you prefer.
6. Add a Description if need. This is not required, but can be useful.
7. Select “Add New Carousel Category”.

To create a Carousel.

1. Carousel > Carousel or Carousel Add New
2. Add New Carousel
3. Featured Post Title – This is the text that will display at the bottom of the Carousel image. Normally you would put the same title that’s for the Post that you’ll include in the “Featured Post URL”.
4. Feature Post Image – Here you can add an image with the built in media uploader. Select “Choose File” than navigate to the file or you can manually enter the URL of the image location (if you have an image in your “uploads” directory you can insert the URL there). Please note that the maximum width for an image is approximately 125px. So the height will be resized in proportion to the width. It’s best to use the same size images for all carousel options. If you look at the image attached to this post you’ll see what happens when images are of different sizes. 
5. Featured Post URL – Insert the URL of the post/page that you want the image to link to here. For example, if it’s your contact page, something similar to http://www.example.com/contact-us/ would go there.                                                          
6. Reorder Name – Images are ordered chronologically by the post date of the images. The newest image will display first. You’ll need to install the Post Types Order Plugin to utilize the Reorder Name feature. http://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/post-types-order/
   • Once you have that plugin installed and activated it will provide another option for your Carousel called “Re-Order”. Please note the plugin will also activate the “Re-Order” option for Posts, Slides, Portfolio, and Boxes. So if you’ve already installed it for one of those options, you will not need to install it again.
   • In your WordPress Administration Panels go to Carousel > Re-Order
   • It will provide a drag and drop interface to arrange your carousel items as you choose regardless of the order that you initially created them.
7. Carousel Categories – You’ll need to select a Carousel Category. This is required because when you use the Carousel element on a page, it will need a category to associate with the slider and you will only be able to select from the categories that were created with this feature.
8. Click “Publish” when done.

To enable the Carousel section on Pages, navigate to that particular Edit Page in your WordPress Administration Panels by first selecting the “Pages” option directly under the “Links” option.

1. Look for “Page Options”. Within that you should see “Page Elements”.
2. Drag and drop the “Carousel” Inactive Element to the “Active Elements”. It will now be activated. Please note that you can control where it appears by its location among the other active elements. Simply drag and drop the “Carousel” Element above or below other Active Elements.
3. Once you have the “Carousel” element active, you will have access to the “Carousel Options”. See below.
   • Carousel Category – Dropdown selection provided of the Carousel Categories that you created previously.
   • Carousel Animation Speed (ms) – Default is 750.
4. To disable the “Carousel” section for that Page, drag and drop the “Carousel” element to “Inactive Elements” or click on the minus “-” symbol to the left of the word “Carousel”.
5. Click “Update” when done.

To use custom slides with the Slider (Pro) you’ll need to create them first.

In your WordPress Administration Panels go to “Slides”
You should see three options. Slides, Add New, and Slide Category. You will also see Re-Order if you have the Post Types Order Plugin (http://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/post-types-order/) to control the order of your custom slides.

Before you create a slide, it would be best if you create at least one category. You can always create one or more later, but it’s best if you create one before you create the custom slide, that way you’ll have it ready when you create the custom slide. It’s also best that you categorize your slides in a naming convention that’s easy for you to relate with your slides. Like “news”, products”, or even something like iFeature Slide category 1.
To create a category you’ll need to select “Slide Category”

• Name – Give your Slide Category a Name 
• Slug – Give your Slide Category a Slug (by default WordPress will use the “Name” that was used above if nothing is inserted).
• Parent – Select a Parent category if one is available. If you haven’t created any categories, there will only be the “None” option.
• Description – Give your Slide Category if a Description if you like. Can be left blank if you so choose.
• Click “Add New Slide Category”

Now create your Slide(s)

Select Slides
Select “Add New”.
You’ll be presented with the “Custom Slide Options”.

• Custom Slide Caption – Insert the text that you would like to appear at the bottom of the slider image. 
• Custom Slide Link – Insert the URL of the post/page that you want the image to link to here. For example, if it’s your contact page, something similar to http://www.example.com/contact-us/ would go there.
• Custom Slide Image – Here you can add an image with the built in media uploader. Select “Choose File” than navigate to the file or you can manually enter the URL of the image location (if you have an image in your “uploads” directory you can insert the URL there). Note that the image aspect ratio is 3.267:1. So to have the best fit your image should be something like 980px by 300px. Please also note that you can adjust the slider height later on within the page that you set the iFeature Slider element. But you may have to adjust the image to your new image aspect ratio, which will vary depending on the slider height that you select there. 
• Custom Thumbnail – If you are using thumbnails with your slider, you have the option of uploading a custom thumbnail for your slide (thumbnails are generated from the slider image by default).

Slides are ordered chronologically by the post date of the posts. The newest post will display first.
If you would like to Re-Order your custom slides, just go to Slides > Re-Order (Post Type Order plugin installation and activation required http://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/post-types-order/). From there you can drag and drop your custom slides in any order, regardless of the order that they were created in.

Once you have these created you’ll then be able to activate the iFeature Slider element within the page where you would like for it to appear.

To enable the iFeature Slider section on Pages, navigate to that particular Edit Page in your WordPress Administration Panels by first selecting the “Pages” option directly under the “Links” option.

1. Look for “Page Options”. Within that you should see “Page Elements”.
2. Drag and drop the “iFeature Slider” Inactive Element to the “Active Elements”. It will now be activated. Please note that you can control where it appears by its location among the other active elements. Simply drag and drop the “iFeature Slider” Element above or below other Active Elements.
3. Once you have the “iFeature Slider” element active, you will have access to the “iFeature Slider”. See below.
   • Slider Size – Full/Half. Default is Full
   • Slider Type – Custom/Posts. Default is Custom
   • Post Categories – All and any Post categories you created. Default is All.
   • Custom Categories – Your Custom Slider categories
   • Number of Featured Posts – Default is 5.
   • Slider Height – In pixels (px).
   • Slider Speed – In milliseconds. 1000 milliseconds = 1 second. Default is 3000.
   • Slider Arrow – On/Off. Default is On.
4. To disable the “iFeature Slider” section for that Page, drag and drop the “iFeature Slider” element to “Inactive Elements” or click on the minus “-” symbol to the left of the word “iFeature Slider”.
5.  Click “Update” when done.

The “Page” Element is a just a place holder. It is available so that you can place an Active Element above or below your Page content. Beyond that it has NO functionality.

In the example below I have set the “Breadcrumbs” Element above the “Page” Element. This is because I would like the breadcrumbs to appear above the Page content. Another example is that many users like to have the Slider above the Page content, so they would place the “Slider” Element above the “Page” Element.

• First Portfolio Image Caption – Here you can add text that appears centered within the associated Portfolio image when a viewer hovers their pointer over the image.
• First Portfolio Link – On/Off default is Off. Insert the URL of the post/page that you want the image to link to here. For example, if it’s your contact page, something similar to http://www.example.com/contact-us/ would go there.
• Second Portfolio Image – Same as First Portfolio Image.
• Second Portfolio Image Caption – Same as First Portfolio Image Caption.
• Second Portfolio Link – Same as First Portfolio Link.
• Third Portfolio Image – Same as First Portfolio Image.
• Third Portfolio Image Caption – Same as First Portfolio Image Caption.
• Third Portfolio Link – Same as First Portfolio Link.
• Fourth Portfolio Image – Same as First Portfolio Image.
• Fourth Portfolio Image Caption – Same as First Portfolio Image Caption.
• Fourth Portfolio Link – Same as First Portfolio Link.
• Portfolio Title – On/Off default is Off. Here you can add a Title that appears directly above the Portfolio images. 

1. To disable the “Portfolio Lite” section for that Page, drag and drop the “Portfolio Lite” element to “Inactive Elements” or click on the minus “-” symbol to the left of the word “Portfolio Lite”.
2. Click “Update” when done.

Tip: The default Portfolio images are approximately 215px by 215px. It would be best to keep all images the same width and height; otherwise they will not look proportional.

The Twitter Bar element allows you to display your Twitter feeds in a horizontal box.

To enable the Twitter Bar section on Pages, navigate to that particular Edit Page in your WordPress Administration Panels by first selecting the “Pages” option directly under the “Links” option.

1. Look for “Page Options”. Within that you should see “Page Elements”.
2. Drag and drop the “Twitter Bar” Inactive Element to the “Active Elements”. It will now be activated. Please note that you can control where it appears by its location among the other active elements. Simply drag and drop the “Twitter Bar” Element above or below other Active Elements.
3. Once you have the “Twitter Bar” element active, you will have access to the “Twitter Bar Options”. See below.

5. To disable the “Twitter Bar” section for that Page, drag and drop the “Twitter Bar” element to “Inactive Elements” or click on the minus “-” symbol to the left of the word “Twitter Bar”.
6. Click “Update” when done.

Twitter Bar Notes:

• Please be aware that the Twitter Bar is simply only meant to work for your Tweets and not with anything else like @replies (but some of the themes now provide support for @ replies, but I cannot guarantee your particular theme does).
• The Twitter Bar only refreshes its cache every hour, so if you don’t immediately see your Tweets, please wait an hour or so after the Tweet to see if it appears. It’s not instantaneous; this was done on purpose to add as little impact to your server as possible.
• Are your Tweets set to Public (default)? Make sure on your actual Twitter.com account settings that your tweets aren’t protected. http://support.twitter.com/articles/20169886-how-to-protect-and-unprotect-your-tweets
• Are you getting a 401 Not Authorized error? Try your Twitter username with and without the @ symbol.
• Try clearing all browser and/or any plugin caching.
