@skandha Thank you very much for your help. I was able to get rid of the vertical slider content, projects section. It seems that both the vertical and the horizontal slider have to stay. I have two more questions. Is it possible to have the main menu appear on top of the home page? Also, is it possible to deactivate the featured sliders (vertical and horizontal) for all pages except for the home page? Thank you very much Skandha.

Best regards, Ariel.

@ariel: Hello Ariel,
The featured slider section is the horizontal slider so to make any changes to it you will need to
Go to => Appearance => Customize => Theme Options => Featured Slider.

All other sections like Portfolio, Featured Content, Hero Content, Service and Testimonial show up in the vertical slider. So if you don’t want Projects section
Go to => Appearance => Customize => Theme Options => Portfolio => Select Disabled.

Other than these sections the vertical slider contains a static homepage or latest posts section.
You seem to have selected a static page as your Homepage.
You can Go to => Appearance => Customize => Homepage Settings => Your homepage displays => Your latest posts. This will display all your posts on the Homepage like Green Meadow, Before I had time to respond and so on in this link.

Hope this was helpful.
Let me know what you would like to do.
Kind Regards,
Skandha

@Skandha That is correct, I added Galleries, Media and Home pages to the featured slider and that shows up on the horizontal slider. If you click on the slider that is on the right side of the screen, the vertical slider, the following pages show up: home, galleries, projects, home without a background. I did not create the projects page and home page should have a background. Where do I change the content of this vertical slider? Why are there two sliders, vertical and horizontal? I’m sorry about all the questions? How to edit the featured slider is really not clear to me. Thank you for any help.

@ariel: Hello Ariel,
I can see Galleries, Media and Home slides on the featured slider section.

To change that slider content
Go to => Appearance => Customize => Theme Options => Featured Slider => Now you can select the pages you want to show up in the slider section.

Let me know if you are still having issues with the slider.
Kind Regards,
Skandha

Hi Skandha,

Thank you for the response, I tried adding additional pages and changing the number of slides. The vertical featured sliders stayed the same and a second horizontal slider was created that is shown on the second slide of the vertical slider. The horizontal feature slider includes now the home page and the newly created pages galleries and media. I have no idea why that happened or how to change the vertical slider content. Please have a look on my website at arielswing.com. Let me know if you have any suggestions. Thank you.

@suzettelake: Hello there,
You can only Featured Page Slider in the free version of the theme. That means you will need to create pages and set the featured images to that pages an add the content.
Then you Go to => Appearance => Customize => Theme Options => Featured Slider => Select Slider Type as Pages and then select the pages you have created.

If you want to use Featured Image Slider I suggest you to upgrade to pro version of the theme. You can check out the additional-features available in pro version of the theme.

Let me know if this helps you out!
Kind Regards,
Skandha

@ariel: Hello there,
The white page shown is the Featured Slider Section. This maybe because you have not selected the pages you want to show on the slider as the slider is empty.
The slider and portfolio section shows up as you seem to have enabled them on Homepage.

To change the number of slides.
Go to => Appearance => Customize => Theme Options => Featured Slider => No of Slides => Change the number and publish and then refresh the customizer page.

Let me know if this works out!
Kind Regards,

@jack7250: Hello Jack,
In the free version the slider only shows Featured Image from a Post.
To have slider that shows series of images from the media library you will need the Featured Image Slider which is only available in pro version of the theme. You can check out the additional-features available in pro version of the theme.

Let me know if this helps you out!

I am new user of Catch Evolution Free.
Skandha, your instructions don’t match my options:
Go to => Appearance => Featured Slider => Select Slider Type as Page =>
Does the slider only show the Featured Image from a post or page?
Or can I have a slider that just cycles through a series of images from the Media Library?

[davidsteakley]

i meant, featured category slider. this is supposed to pull the 3 newest posts. it is pulling the three oldest posts. i have category set to “all.”

[sapana]

@davidsteakley:In Simple Catch you need to manually update the Featured Post ID to get the latest Featured Post to be displayed in Slider. Let me know if you have any other queries?

Kind Regards,

@johns: First Go to => Dashboard => Pages => Add two pages and insert a Featured Image to those pages.

Then,
Go to => Appearance => Customize => Featured Slider => Enable the Featured Slider => Select the pages you created before.

Let me know if this helps you out!

Yes, I have the rpencil-text background in use in a few other elements, which is planned. None of those you listed should be effecting the H1, H2 text on the slideshow of the featured slider when I apply the image to the .site-header element.
What I need is for the theme authors to identify the element that is linked to the site-header causing it to be inherited to the H1, H2 elements so I can be more specific in the CSS than what CSS Hero is allowing.

@peronia: Can you please set the image loader to the false and try it once
Go to=> Appearance=> Customize=> Featured Slider=> Image Loader=> Select False
Let me know if this does some trick!

Thank you for your answer. I am using the featured slider as the home page for mobile devices because the video that I am using for desktops doesn’t work in mobiles. This is done with the css additional:

@media screen and (min-width:900px) {
#feature-slider-section {
display:none !important;
}
}
Is there another way to change this? Or to make the scroll go from section 0 to section 2?
Kind regards,

Hello Valeria,

There looks like you have Featured Slider Section enabled but not configured. So, can you go to “Appearance => Customize => Theme Options => Featured Slider” and make sure it’s “Disabled”.
