Hi!

Best regards,

@Dr.Forcier: So now you are able to change the featured post slider?

[Sakin]

@marieke456: Yes the Featured POst slider will take the image, title and excerpt form the post.

[Sakin]

@Julien: You will have option to remove the featured post slide and replace it with featured image slide. This option will be available on Catch Everest Pro theme which we are launching next week.

@classictheaterguild: I think you are talking about featured Post Slider.

Note:
* When you add the Post Id\’s, make sure you have added in the Featured Image in your Post. See this for Featured Image http://en.support.wordpress.com/featured-images/#setting-a-featured-image
* If you are unable to find the post ID then you can install the Catch IDs Plugin to find the Post IDs. http://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/catch-ids/

If you still have problem then this video about our other theme Simple Catch might help you as this theme also uses Featured Post Slider. Similar concept.
Maybe this video will help you http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Oiov0L4blIw

@Sakin Thanks for your help on this. Still not quite there… I can see that my posts have IDs, 1 thru 10, but if I add a post number to the Featured Slider Post field, then no image shows despite having an image in the post. I’ve tried adding eg. “10” and also “#10”

Hi Sakin,

Thanks again, I have seen this video wich was very helpfull when building my website. My question though is if you can add text in the picture on the featured slider, not below it.

So I’m wondering if the content of the featured slider can not only be an image, but text as well. I want to add a slogan into the picture shown on the homepage/in the slider.

If not thanks, thanks anyway, otherwise very curious on how to add this.

Kind regards.

Hello,

I am having the same problem. I have followed all the steps you have provided and I have made an image that is 1140×450 pixels. I add it into the Featured Post Slider Options with the correct ID and it does not same the ID number?

Thank you

@azie: for that you need to build child theme and edit it. It’s not that easy to change the Post slider image. You need to hire customizer.

But there is one good news. We are launching Catch Everest Pro theme next week where there will be option to use Featured Image Slider. Where you can upload image of any size as there will be image uploader.

Hi Sakin,

Thanks for your reply. I am using the Featured Post Slider, and I am wondering if you can add text into/on the (slider)picture that is shown on the homepage, sort of like a homepage banner on the picture.

Thanks also for your link, but I cannot open it. Is it about the FSP? That I know of, but thanks anyway.

Kind regards, Marieke

Hi Sakin thank you for the response.  The Slider Image is taking up a lot of the space for the homepage.  I would like to be able to shrink the image a little bit so people are able to see the words underneath the slider image as soon as they land on my homepage instead of scrolling down.  I would appreciate if you can help me to reduce the size of the image featured.

@chandrathompson: We need to check in detail. I am not being able to recreate the problem. So, I will contact you through email. Please respond.

@marieke456: Sorry I don’t understand your question. If you are using Free Simple Catch theme then there is Featured Post Slider. I would like to share with you this video for Simple Catch. Watch This

@fabianfiedler: If you see your screenshot http://fabianfiedler.de/wp-content/uploads/2013/03/Catch_Everest1.jpg. Here you can see the Caption being used in the Second picture. But if you are thing about adding in the first picture then sorry you will not be able to do that. That image is the featured image to highlight the post. So, this will not have the caption option.

[Sakin]

@Julien: ok sure. You can either follow us on Twitter or like us on Facebook to get the notification.
