@jshao: A post cannot show twice on the same page. Your only two posts show in the featured posts slider, as they should. The Recent posts section displays the latest three regular (non-sticky) posts.

When you have more than one, it can confuse the theme.

I just posted two new blog posts and made them sticky, but neither of them are showing up under recent posts. Seems kind of odd to me!

Thanks!

6. mark a post as sticky if you want it on the slider.

No, you don't have to have 6 posts. The slider can display up to 6 posts. Six is best, because then the thumbnails that show below the slider will cover the whole width, but the slider works even with one post only.

So to break it down you have to....

1. create a new page
2. change the "page attribution" to showcase template
3. go to settings > reading
4. select that page as the "static page"
5. make sure your posts have featured images that are over 750px wide
....and then, hypothetically, it should work?

Also, in order for this to work, do you already have to have 6 posts? I just started recently, so I only have three posts. They should probably make this a bit more intuitive. xD

The post you have you need to make "sticky" which is on the right hand side when you edit the post and then check that your image is over 750 wide and that should work :) let me know if it doesn't and we"ll troubleshoot some more

It took me ages to get it right (and to get my head around how to set it up) but now that it's set up as my landing page it works really well - one tip though - make sure you have large pictures to display or it wont work. The posts just end up on your recent post list and not even in the display.

That would be what you will find information on out on the web. Take a look at the Oxygen theme page here and look under "Showcase page template" and it explains how to use the slider here. Sometimes theme features have to be changed from the original theme design due to the unique structure of this hosted platform.

I just started writing http://www.teravore.com. I am using the Oxygen Theme. I figured most of the stuff out; the featured slider, menus, etc.

However, I noticed that only my 3 most recent posts show up under the "recent articles" section. The rest show up under "more articles" section.

I want to have all my non-sticky posts show up under the recent posts section (or at least more than 3). Is there a way I can do this?

Just to be clear about this I have 7 links displaying in my Recent Posts widget. I have a page with the Archives shortcode on it that displays links to all of my published posts http://onecoolsitebloggingtips.com/sitemap-2/ In addition I have two other static pages that are index pages which I manually update:
http://onecoolsitebloggingtips.com/basic-blogging/
http://onecoolsitebloggingtips.com/popular-posts/
Maybe these ideas will work for you.
