@ctannehill: Featured Slider in under the Theme Options panel under Appearance Tab.
I have no idea why this has happened but today I was going to add an image into the featured slider, however the option is no longer there. I used to access “featured slider” under the “appearance” tab but it does not exist and I have no clue why that would disappear like that.
Any suggestions?
@Mapillustrator: If you use Featured Image Slider then it’s all manual and it doesn’t take any media alt tag as this option let you add in the image url even outside of your site. That is just a manual url. But if you use Featured Post Slider then yes it takes in the media alt tags.
@Mapillustrator: I checked your site and you are using Featured Image Slider. Here the image will take the Image Slider Title that you added in your “Theme Options -> Featured Slider -> Featured Image Slider Options”.
@Electricfan: that’s great.
I think I figured it out… I removed the image that was attached to the slider and it seems to be ok.
thanks but I think I’m set now..
@Electricfan: Can you send me your site URL so that I can check it.
Hello All,
I just installed Catch Box and when viewing my featured slider images behind each one has dots like a grid and I can see through the images as well. Any thoughts??
That worked! I’m so excited. What about the “posted in uncategorized.” Is there a way to remove that as well?
Also, I’m trying to use different transition effects on the featured slider, but none of the other options are working. Is there another place to change this other than “slider options”
@sbarrington114: to remove the content in homepage you can just add the following CSS in your “Custom CSS” box in Theme Options panel
.home #primary { display: none; }
For slider, there is no option to put custom url for some. If you choose Featured Post slider then it will link to it’s respective posts. Only if you choose Featured Image slider you can choose any custom URL.
Im sorry but ive read that all a couple times now and dont see anything about changing what I want to change.
In the image below, youll see the part I dont want. The red circle… I dont want that blank box there. I just want the home page to be the featured slider the way I have it.
Then the next part, I only want to change the “continue reading” link on certain posts. not all of them. As in, some posts are fine with the way its doing it now, but future posts, I might want to make that link take someone to a custom URL.
@sbarrington114: It’s ok but you can always create a new thread. I see that you are using Catch Box Pro theme. Then there is option to replace your current Featured Post Slider with Featured Image Slider. Where you can add the image, title, description and link as per your wish. See this for theme instruction: http://catchthemes.com/theme-instructions/catch-box-pro/
Also could you tell me how to change the continue reading link URL? Some of them I want to go to different web pages altogether.
Sakin, I also have a slider question. Sorry to hi jack but dont see a need for another thread.
If you view my site, on the home page below the featured slider, theres an empty box that just says “HOME” in it. How can I get rid of this?

@PixX_L: Please use different thread. This is for Simple Catch Theme and you are asking about Catch Box Theme. This will confused other users.
For Catch Box theme Featured slider is in “Appearance -> Featured Slider”. It not under Theme Options. We haven’t change theme panel for Catch Box. It’s same as before.
Same problem here , nothing in Appearance -> Theme Options -> Featured slider
Wordpress 3.5 Catch box 1.7.1, french install
The issue Appear since upgrade to 1.7.1, featured slider ok on home page but nothing in admin side.
@egnalc: If you are using the latest version then for featured slider you need to go “Appearance -> Theme Options -> Featured Slider”
In the Simple Catch Theme I no longer see the Featured Slider under Appearance.
