    Hi there, I am trying to customize Featured Slider by removing hyperlinks from the featured image as well as the page title.

    I did the following but it didn’t seem to fix it, please help.

    Editor > featured-slider.php > function clean_education_post_page_category_slider()

    <figure class=”slider-image”>
    ‘. $image .’
    </figure><!– .slider-image –>

    …

    <h2 class=”entry-title”>
    ‘.the_title( ‘<span>’,'</span>’, false ).’
    </h2>

    Fairly new to this and I was only editing the theme itself didn’t create a child theme… hope that’s okay for small change like this… 🙂

    Thank you!

    Formatting messed up even with CODE tags… essentially I changed

    href="' . esc_url( get_permalink() ) . '"

    to

    href="#"

    @stefyc: For customization (change of codes) it is highly recommended to use child theme. It is because you’ll lose all your customization and coding on theme update. You can find more details on creating child theme HERE.

    Please post in your site url.

    Hi Mahesh,

    Thank you for the prompt response. Okay I can create the child theme, but was the suggested code change correct? Why didn’t it take effect?

    Site here (just proof of concept now…)

    Thanks!

    @stefyc: You can simply do this with custom CSS. Go to Dashboard=> Appearance=> Customize=> Additional CSS box and add the following CSS:

    #slider-section .slider-image > a, 
#slider-section .entry-header .entry-title > a {
    pointer-events: none;
}

    Regards,
