@dreamydayz: See the Theme Instruction http://catchthemes.com/theme-instructions/catch-box/ . The featured slider recommended size is Width: 644px and Height: 320px. If you have image with this size then it’s perfect or if you have larger then this then it will crop to this size. But if you have featured image smaller than this, then it will display the original size of image.
@rsolosky: If you are using Free theme then yes it’s only used for Featured Post Slider not for page. But in Premium theme, it have Featured Image Slider where you can add link to any url.
In Catch Box and Catch Everest latest version, we have added Post ID column in “All Posts” section in WordPress Dashboard. We are adding this post ID feature in Simple Catch theme in coming version 2.3.3.
But for now you can use Catch ID’s plugin to find the post ID http://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/catch-ids/
@Ghettofab75: The featured image in Simple Catch Theme are used for showing it in home and category display. It is also used in Featured Post Slider. It is not used to display large image under your header. It’s depends on the theme design and this theme doesn’t do that.
@SAGE Atlanta: This mean it was working before and now it disappeared. In this case, can you tell me the plugin you have activated recently. Try disabling that and try again.
Hi, i would like to know how i can make my featured images uniform
i.e. stop the images from altering the size of the featured slider box
which causes the tex to below to continually adjust?

many thanks

Featured image puts up an image of your choice in the slider
as in my blog – eatfastdiet.com
you need to select an image in your post window and note down the post id number
then go to appearance, slider options, then enter the number into your Featured Col #1
and click save
when you add more than one featured image then you will see the slide effects
hope that helps

Hey Sakin,
For some reason, my sliders have disappeared. I have tried resetting the featured images and thumbnails. The images I am using are set to the slider image size. I have tried clicking and declicking options. Any suggestions?

@abkelty: When I check in your side. I see that there is only 1 featured post setup. Check your post if the Featured Post Slider.
For example this post http://artintergration.webuda.com/2/ id is 93 and another one 87. In you Featured Post Slider option put these numbers.
@bmdesignerfashion: I don’t what are you talking about menu. You menu is working fine and you can manage your menu better though Custom Menu “Appearance => Menu”. See this http://en.support.wordpress.com/menus/
About your gallery page, you can increase the width for particular page by adding in the following CSS in “Custom CSS” box in Theme Options panel.
.page.no-sidebar #primary { width: 100%; }
For Gallery you have to adjust the css or best try using plugins.
Post on the slider cannot be taken to the page. That is featured post slider and it will only redirect to post. But you can further redirect post to page with redirection plugin
I would like to keep the main page exactly how it is now.
In addition I would like when I create posts that they show up only on the Blog page.
Similar to the site, http://www.podecos.co.uk/
Except instead of featured content on the main page I want to keep my image slider… and then have my blog like they have on the “news” page.
Hi!
I am trying to get my slider to work. I created two test posts with featured images and they will not switch images for some reason =/
My website is below:
http://artintergration.webuda.com/
@rsolosky: Featured Image are used in Catch Box theme for featured post slider and when you are set the blog to “Show excerpt” in Content Layout from “Appearance => Theme Options”. It will not show in “Show full content” mode.
@takac.agent: If you are using Catch Everest theme, then add the following CSS in “Custom CSS” box in Theme Options panel to hide the Featured Post Slider excerpt.
#main-slider .entry-content { display: none; }
@ambassador1103: Catch Everest uses the Featured Post Slider which mean it will take the title, excerpt and featured image from post.
I have cleared the question in this support thread. See this http://catchthemes.com/support-forum/topic/featured-post-slider-not-showing-up/
Hi Sakin,
I have the same problem. I´m not WPML user, so I have translated the website with qtranslate plugin. But the text in the featured /pageslider is alyways shown only in one language, also after language switch.
The same with Homepage Headline.
What can be a problem? My site http://www.takacagent.com. Thanks fot answer.
Hi Sakin,
I would like just hide the excerpt, not the title in the featured post slider. How can I do that please?
Thank you
Hi! Yet again the featured slider has disappeared. (www.migrantcity.info). Last time I was told it was in conflict with WPML. Is it possible to resort this for the future?
Best regards,

@TanjaCrouch: I just check in your site and the slider is working fine. But I know what are you trying to say.
When I check in the the site, your site has a huge image in Featured Homepage Content. For example http://www.tanjacrouch.com/wp-content/uploads/2013/03/Tanja-NF-AW-810.jpg and http://www.tanjacrouch.com/wp-content/uploads/2013/03/DC-18-16.jpg
The concept of the slider in Catch Everest is that, it only loads the sliding script only after all the content has been loaded in the site. So, if you wait for all the images and content to load then you will see the slider working fine.
So, to avoid loading issue, just decrease the size of the images.
@cbtoolkit: Just add the title and it will replace the image hove text. Then you can hide the title by adding the following CSS in “Custom CSS” box in Theme Options panel.
#slider-wrap .featured-text { display: none; }
