@Martijn83: Yes you can just go to “Appearance => Theme Options => Featured Post Slider => Slider Options” and then select “Disable” is Enable Sidebar and save changes.
Hello,
I’m using catch evolution. Can I remove the featured image slider?
Thanks!
@Bouncedancer: It’s not 100% necessary to use Featured Image. Featured images are used for Featured Post Slider and in above the post excerpt content in Catch Evolution Free version. But id you don’t need these then you don’t need to add Featured image. For recommended sizes see this http://catchthemes.com/theme-instructions/catch-evolution/
@thatfashiondude: Strange. It’s updating fine in our side. I just change the Post id in “Appearance => Theme Options => Featured Post Slider => Add Slider Options”.
So, can you tell me what did you add in your Slider Options? Need more details about what’s not working.
Recently updated to 2.7.1. and now I cannot seem to update what is in my featured slider. I click on the option but there is no drop down menu. It goes blank and doesn’t not provide any options.
http://www.thatfashiondude.com is the site in question.
@MVS: Catch Everest Free Theme uses Featured Post Slider which is created to highlight your post. So, when you add post ID in “Appearance => Theme Options => Featured Post SLider” like in this screenshot http://www.pinterest.com/pin/548594798329984427/
The slider code will take the Featured Image from that post. The image title and alternative text will be Post title. Image tag will not have description. Read this http://www.w3schools.com/html/html_images.asp
@niyazsky: Catch Kathmandu Free theme uses Featured Post slider which is created to highlight the posts. For then first you need to create the post add featured image in those post. Then get the post ID and add it in “Appearance => Theme Options => Featured Slider”. You will see it like this http://www.pinterest.com/pin/548594798329984427/
For more details. Read the theme instruction page http://catchthemes.com/theme-instructions/catch-kathmandu/ heading “Featured Slider”
Hi,
I don’t know how to fill in the information (title, description, alt) for my pictures in the image-slider.
Those informations are requested from Google regarding SEO.
I know, how to fill in the information for pictures you upload in your topic. But for the pictures in a slider you need to set a picture as featured content and there you don’t have the options: title, description, alternative text…
How do I fill in those information for a picture in the slider?
I’m pretty sure I’m looking for some code in a php file, but I’m not quite sure where or what to look for.
I’d like to be able to set the featured images so that they show up on the slider, but I don’t want the featured image to show in the post.
Is there a line of code you can direct me to for deletion or is there a piece of code I need to edit/add?
Thanks in advance.

@Irina: I see that you are using Featured Image Slider. But when you upload the image, you have clicked on “Attachment Post URL” and then Insert into Post that is why it couldn’t fine the image. You need to click on “File URL” and then “Insert Into Post”. See this screenshot http://www.pinterest.com/pin/548594798331557672/
Hi, my feature slider does not work. I tried to have a slide show of 2 photos, but only this appears on the screen:
http://www.aussiebuschleben.net
When I change to post slider there is a bit of the post text and a small background photo.
What am I doing wrong? What exactly do I have to fill in the image and link field?
Thank you so much for your help.
Irina
I would like to have a different logo just for the posts and blog page. Is that possible? as you said before, «Sorry you cannot change the logo for different pages. Logo is fixed image»
– to use Featured Header Image in Page/Post Featured Image, I’m using featured images on some pages to show them on the homepage slider and those are not the ones I want to show on the top of that page.
@Melanie: Second column in not the widget area. It’s the Featured Slider and then the latest post from homepage.
Hi Sakin,
Thanks for the quick response!
I have made the following changes in Appearance> Theme Options > Theme Options:
• a custom logo
• favicon
• recently just changed the header, with the CSS you just provided me.
Will those items be changed, or need to be redone?
2) Will anything from the Appearance > Theme Options > Homepage settings; > Featured post slider, > Social LInks or > webmaster tools be changed?
Any insight would be greatly appreciated.
Kind regards,
SBARTSCH
@gailforder: I see that you have edited the core theme files and add the the image in the demo slider code. You shouldn’t edit any core theme files. If you edit core theme files, you edit will be overwritten when you update or upgrade your theme. So, you can do your customization through “Appearance => Theme Options” panel and Appearance Menu. Further, if you want to edit core theme files then you have to do by building child them.
Catch Everest Free theme have option only to use Featured Post Slider. This slider is create to highlight your post. For more slider option you need to upgrade to pro version. See the theme instruction page of Catch Everest Free theme http://catchthemes.com/theme-instructions/catch-everest/, here is the text from theme instruction page.
How to Add Featured Post Slider?
Currently this theme only support Posts in the Featured Slider. To add Featured Slider, follow these basic steps:
1. Go to “Appearance => Theme Options => Featured Post Slider” in your WordPress Dashboard
2. To add Posts in the slider, click on Slider Options and simply insert the ID numbers for posts in the boxes, one post ID number in each box
3. To change the slider effects and timing, go to Slider Effect Options which is just below Slider Options
4. Click on Save button
Note:
* When you add the Post IDs, make sure your posts have Featured Images
* If you are unable to find post IDs, please install Catch IDs Plugin to find the Post IDs
Ok, i begin to send some information, i’m on work now, i’ll check it well in the night, but I know how sad it is get stucked on something like this. Look for the problem of language reset, that if you check it well you’ll see happen in the footer too, i solved in this way:
First of all i’m using a child theme, (hope you do the same)
I copied the home.php file and add inmediatly after the line with
get_header();
the following code:
delete_transient( 'catcheverest_image_sliders' );
delete_transient( 'catcheverest_homepage_headline' );
delete_transient( 'catcheverest_homepage_featured_content' );
delete_transient( 'catcheverest_footer_content' );
delete_transient( 'catcheverest_footercode' );
with this you can solve the problem of language resetting….
For the other thing of the links in homepage featured content I find a shortcut not a solution. When I did the site there was no way to make the links work, using the qtransate quick tags in the link field, but the content field allow you to write something like this:
[:es]<a id="depa_titulo" href="/departamentos" >Departamentos</a>[:it]<a id="depa_titolo" href=http://www.mexiconuvole.com/it/departamentos">Appartamenti</a>[:en]<a id="depa_title" href=http://www.mexiconuvole.com/en/departamentos">Apartments</a>
Then playing with CSS you say to the title to disappear with a display:none and you have your content working as title with a working relative link.
But as you can see i did not need content there. I saw you wrote things there inside, give a try enhancing the code above creating a container div for your content and see if it work.
In the night I’ll send you some css.
http://bodyshoppt.com is my site. I figured out how to change the featured slider images on my webpage, but if I share my webpage on Facebook, it shows the default mountain image that comes with this theme. It also displays the description of the Catch Kathmandu theme, not my webpage. Where do I modify what Facebook (and maybe search engines?) use as my site description?
@Caitlin: I am bit confused about your request as you haven’t share your site URL. So are you trying to add Featured Slider in Catch Kathmandu Pro theme.
Please check in the Theme Instruction at http://catchthemes.com/theme-instructions/catch-kathmandu-pro/. In Featured Slider, you can choose the from Page Slider or Post Slider or Category slider or image slider and how to add that is mentioned in theme instruction page.
@varaani: There is no option to add text area between header image and featured post slider. For that you need to create child theme and do the customization.
Sorry I don’t understand your second question.
Hello.
I would need text area between header/featured image and Featured posts slider. Is it possible and how?
And second:
ON home page is it possible to bring front certain tab by clicking featured posts slider? Tabs have each their own ID.
