    My website was working fine until last night. However, the featured image slider is not loading since today morning. I tried to completely uninstall and re-install the theme, however, it still wont load. I also tried to reset all settings and then presume, still the featured image slider for pages does not load.

    Please help ASAP

    Thanks and regards,

    @ami.mehta70: I just check in Catch Responsive Version 1.8 in our server and the slider is working fine. So, there must be some configuration or customization issue in your site.

    If you check your source, there is extra code in the header as below. Can you tell me where do you get that from. 

    </head> 
<body>
page contents
</body>
</html>

    So, check your custom codes if you have any. Try removing that. IF you haven’t added in custom codes then check your plugin, try disabling plugin one by one and check in.

    @Peter: Yes, you can replace that but only through building child theme and adding it in your child theme functions.php file. For child theme, refer to http://catchthemes.com/blog/create-child-theme-wordpress/

    @Peter: You can just add the following code in your child theme functions.php file

    function catchresponsive_featured_slider() {
	echo do_shortcode('[banner_rotator hosting1]');
}

    Hello … read through this and other posts on the feature sliders not showing up, can’t figure out where my problem lies.

    I am using the Catch Everest Theme on my site terroircongress.org

    The nine featured post sliders on my home page show up fine half the time and then the images don’t show up the other half of the time (only the text and grey boxes). This happens off and on without any pattern. Right now they are not showing, but later tonight they might show up. I think it has to do with mixed access between http and https, but I cannot figure it out, please any help would be greatly appreciated.

    5 minutes after I posted this query, the featured post sliders started working again!

    Any idea what is going on here?

    Thanks,
    Greg

    @TerroirCongress: It must be your server loading time, cache issue and your internet speed. When I check in your site. It’s loading fine. Try using plugin like W3 Total Cache or WP Rocket cache.

    Thank you for the response, checked with my IT department and what we are seeing is that the images in the featured post sliders flip back and forth between http and https access. All of the images are specified as having URLs with http in the Media management, but for some reason the page flips to https and it happens randomly … Monday and Tuesday it was fine all day, Wednesday it flipped to https for about 6 hours, then back by the time you looked at it.

    All other images on my site work fine, it is just the featured post sliders.

    Thanks,
    Greg

    @TerroirCongress: But we don’t have control over http and https. It all depends on your server configuration. The post slider just take the post ID and get in featured image of that post.

    Thought I would see if I could catch you to look at terroircongress.org

    The disappearing featured post sliders are gone again. Over the weekend they were working mostly, but down two times at different points in the day and for differing amounts of time.

    Thanks,
    Greg

    @TerroirCongress: Yes, it’s https issue. Right now all your images are in HTTPS and also your site doesn’t have trusted ssl certificate. So, either ask your hosting server to remove ssl configuration or update it.
