<h3>Templating</h3>
WP Slick Slider 1.0+ has full support for templating, If are not comfortable working on minor edits to the code in your site, this feature will not be for you.
To activate templating, simply create a folder called “wpss” in your theme folder.
There are 4 types of slides available, these are fully individually templateable, you can even edit the output for a slide type of a specific slide.
To activate templating:
<ol>
<li>Create a file in your theme “wpss”</li>
<li>copy the files from wp-slick-slider/templates/ to the new theme folder.</li>
<li>Edit Away!</li>
</ol>
You can edit the templates for an individual slider using the following guide: 
1. copy the files from wp-slick-slider/templates/ to the wpss folder. 
2. Rename The required file to: {$slug}_{$type}.php. EG: If you have a slider called cool_slider and want to edit the output for the Full Width Image type,the filename would be: cool_slider_full-width-image.php. 
3. Edit Away.

The plugin provides a sidebar widget with customisable title and number of related posts to display. 
The widget will display a random list of x number of posts ( selected in widget options ) together with a small tag including the publish date and author. 
If used outside of a specific category the widget will default to all categories, whilst still displaying the selected number of random posts.
