I have a group of custom fields that only appear on the home page.
I created a slideshow that appears on the home page and that takes the images of a group of repeated fields.
Everything works fine but when I create a new page in the wordpress admin it automatically creates a new image field (which is empty) in my slideshow. But the field group is disabled on the new page and so it should not have existed.

Thanks for your help

Hi Olivier

This slideshow, is it creating a slider from a single post (which has multiple values for an image field), probably created by iterating over the images using the wpv-for-each shortcode?

Or is the slider made using a View which iterates over a number of posts (each of which has an image)?

If it is the latter then you must set your View up with some kind of Query Filter so that only the required posts are returned and not the new post (regardless of whether this new post can use the image field or not).
