@ajamison: Just use the following CSS:
.page .entry-title { display: none; }
.page .featured-slider .entry-title { display: block; }
Both my page titles and my featured post titles are missing when I use the following in custom CSS:
.page .entry-title { display: none; }
.featured-slider .page .entry-title { display: block; }

I want to hide the page title and display the featured post title
@offirkeren: Sorry there is not option to change that in Catch Everest Free theme as it only have Featured Post slider. So, it only accepts post. But if you upgrade to Catch Everest Pro version then you have option to use Featured Page Slider, if you want to link to page. Or if you want to link to different links then you can use Featured Image Slider. For more details about Catch Everest Pro, see this http://catchthemes.com/theme-instructions/catch-everest-pro/
@kapo_e: Sorry there is no option to control image in Catch Everest Free theme, you need to upgrade to pro version where you have option to choose the image sizes. Also you have option to user Featured Image Slider, where you have upload any image as per you need.
For Catch Everest Free then you need to build child theme and copy content.php file to your child theme. Then in your child theme content.php file replace <?php the_post_thumbnail( 'featured' ); ?> with <?php the_post_thumbnail( 'slider' ); ?>
Hi,
I set a featured image on a post that is 1140x450px as you recommend for the post slider. It looks fine on the slider. However when the post is opened the image (above the title) is cropped to 690px. see:
http://e-kapedani.com/brent-toderian-keynote-at-green-buildings-holland/
How can I use an image that looks good for both the slider and on the post? Is there a way to just make the featured image to resize proportionally on the post?
Thanks in advance.
@jason: Yes you can have full width slider. You can do that from “Appearance => Theme Options => Featured Slider => Slider Options”. There is slider type choose “Feature Image Slider” and in Slider Layout choose “Full Width Slider”.
@Ian Sanchez: Please share your site url so that I know which theme are you using it. There is option in “Appearance => Theme Options => Featured Slider” you can choose to use only in homepage.
@mlw5137: I don’t get it what you mean. If you want to use different image and size for Featured Slider, then there is one option that you can choose. That is using Featured Image Slider. For that.
1. Go to “Appearance => Theme Options => Featured Slider”
2. Then Click on “Slider Options” and choose “Image Slider” from Select slider Type
3. Then Click on “Featured Image Slider Options” and upload the image, title, description and link of your choice.

@alin.stafie: Oh sorry, so you are using Featured Post Slider, for that you can just add the following CSS in “Appearance => Theme Options => Custom CSS” box.
#main-slider .entry-content { display: none; }
Thanks @Sakin Works perfectly.
Did you have an idea on how to change the size of the featured slider image though?
me site URL is http://www.blogcalatorii.com
I removed the featured image in the post page but still i can’t empty the description field. Can you give me more details in how can i do that.
Regards,
Alin Stafie
@fractalhealth: You don’t need to create child theme do build Featured Post Slider. Just follow the instruction as below.
1. First create the Post and don’t forget to add in the Featured Image in the post as this image is used in the slider. To add featured image see this http://en.support.wordpress.com/featured-images/#setting-a-featured-image
2. Then get the ID of the post. When you edit your post or write a post, you will see the id in your browser address bar. You can also check our the Post ID in your ALL Posts section in WordPress Dashboard. But if you cannot find it then you can use this plugin to view it http://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/catch-ids/
3. Then go to “Appearance => Theme Options => Featured Post Slider”. Add in the post id. See the screenshot on how to add Post ID http://pinterest.com/pin/548594798329984427/
@mlw5137: You can choose the image size from “Appearance => Theme Options => Layout Options”. Then from “Content Featured Image Size” you can choose “Slider Image”.
@alin.stafie: Can you send me your site URL?
You can use Feature Image Slider and leave empty in the description field.
You can remove featured image in the post page from “Appearance => Theme Options => Header Featured Image Options”. From there you can change the settings for Enable Featured Header Image.
Hi Sakin,
My site is: trekkingitout.com
I just upgraded to the Pro Version of Catch Everest. I must say it is certainly well worth the upgrade, you all have done such a great job.
I am running into one little issue though. For my latest post “A day in Galway,” I have the featured image set to match the height and width of the slider to ensure no cropping, which works great.
I then have, in the article, the featured image appearing as it appears in the slider, per the options via the pro version in the post, so I can clearly read my text on the image “A day in Galway”
Now, the issue I run into is on my main page, when you scroll down below featured content to the latest posts…the image for “A day in Galway” is cropped. Is there a way to have it not be cropped and just appear as it similarly does in the post?
Also, lastly, but not as important. Is there a way to adjust the dimensions of the featured slider? Perhaps to be a little more square rather than rectangular. I apologize for my wording if it sounds unintelligible. I am a little new to this all!
Thanks in advance and thank you for all of your help!

Hello,
Can you please help me with two slider problems :
1. For the picture in the slider in the home page I only want to have the title . How can I erase the description?
2. I don’t want to have the featured image in the post page.
Thank you in advance for your help.
Regards,
Alin
@fractalhealth: You are not recommended to change any core theme files, like replacing the image and code. This will be overwritten when you update your theme. So, all your customization will be lost. If you want to change any core theme files then you need to build child theme and edit it.
I see that you are using Catch Everest Free theme and in this theme you only have option to add Featured Post Slider. Follow the instruction as below.
1. First create the Post and don’t forget to add in the Featured Image in the post as this image is used in the slider. To add featured image see this http://en.support.wordpress.com/featured-images/#setting-a-featured-image
2. Then get the ID of the post. When you edit your post or write a post, you will see the id in your browser address bar. You can also check our the Post ID in your ALL Posts section in WordPress Dashboard. But if you cannot find it then you can use this plugin to view it http://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/catch-ids/
3. Then go to “Appearance => Theme Options => Featured Post Slider”. Add in the post id. See the screenshot on how to add Post ID http://pinterest.com/pin/548594798329984427/
I’m at a loss so far. Please help weigh in?
I can’t seem to get the main slider to function or interact properly. I am trying to get more than two slides despite the slider options saying there is 3 or 4. I can’t seem to change the picture through the UI but only manually replacing the “slider1.jpg” etc. through a third party ftp.
More specifically, I want to change the wording and/or active link. Looking at the forums it seems other don’t seem to have a problem. My java is up to date if that even matters. I tried going from firefox browser to chrome just to see. No difference. It seems to me that a lot of the responsiveness in the “theme options” are a little stiff. I have to copy and paste photo urls for the “featured contents” and I can’t change favicon via theme options among other little details.
I guess I’m asking for something beyond the theme instructions or at least the correct file names so I can get into php coding and alter the wording in the slider to makeshift it to my liking, although there hasn’t been much success with this yet.

Is there something I am missing?
Thanks and peace be with you.

@rcbharp: I just check in your site and found that you just replaces the images in the Featured Slider and hide the slider title and description.
So, instead of replacing the slider image in the theme directory. Add the image from “Appearance => Theme Options => Featured Slider” then choose Image Slider and add the image there. See this screenshot http://pinterest.com/pin/548594798329509357/
@ajamison: I just check in your site and see both title and excerpt in the Featured Slider.
