I bought the solid construction pro for https://usbolsburg.com (Union State Bank in Olsburg, KS). I work for Modern Banking Systems and part of my job is to develop websites for our bank customers. I bought this particular theme because it had a larger homepage slider. The slider is named “Demo”. There is no way to access it or update it with the bank’s images. The town of Olsburg is famous for their dala horses and barn quilts. The bank would like their website to have a community feel and the larger slider would be perfect. How do I make my images larger like the slider you show when I picked this new theme? Thank you.

Could you possibly put the css

“.featured-slider .slides { background-color: #ffffff !important; }”

into the theme options somehow in next update?

Just so we don’t have to do it manually by adding custom css 🙂

@florent-bruchezmac-com : Login to your WordPress admin section. Go to Appearance => Customize
In the customizer panel you can find featured slider just below Theme Options. Click on the Featured slider option and add sliders as desired. Let me know if you are still having issues locating featured slider option.

Hi ☺️ !

Sorry for the stupid question, but where is the Featured Slider? I downloaded the Pro 5.1.8 version from my account, but I can’t find the settings related to the slider that exists in the documentation or on this forum. 😢

How stupid am I, then? 😂

Thanks!

@steveide : You can make use of the featured slider section that is included in the theme. You can link a single slider with one URL but there is no option to link multiple links from a single slider image. I recommend you to look for a suitable plugin that fits your requirements. Let me know if you have any theme related issues.

@accucomm : I suggest you to update the theme to the latest version as it contains security updates and bug fixes. The updated version of the theme supports a feature where you can sort the positions of sections of your Homepage as desired.
After updating the theme. Login to your WordPress admin section. Go to Appearance => Customize => Theme Options => Sections Sorter
Drag and drop the primary menu below featured slider and you will get the result as desired.
Let me know if you have any more questions.

Hi:
I’m trying to add an image slider to my blog. I have your Catch Responsive Pro Theme v. 4.7.2. When I add my images in the Featured Slider area, and I activate it, my menus appear above the images and I get empty space below the images that seems to be the same vertical size as my menus.
I already created a child theme and tried the following code that I picked up from an old Catch Themes forum case.But it doesn’t work.
function primary_menu_below_header_image() {
remove_action( ‘catchbase_after_header’, ‘catchbase_primary_menu’, 20 );
add_action( ‘catchbase_after_header’, ‘catchbase_primary_menu’, 45 );
}
add_action( ‘wp_head’, ‘primary_menu_below_header_image’ );
Could you please tell me the correct code that I need to add to the funtions.php file of my child theme so that my menus will appear below my images?
Thank you.

Is it possible to change the color for only one of the slider titles? Here is what I’ve tried:

Custom CSS: #main-slider .entry-title span .blacktype { color:#000000!important; }

Customizing >Featured Slider>Slider Options: <p class=”blacktype”>Historical fiction</p>

Thank you! https://rebecca-rosenberg.com/

What is the css code to use either the fabulous-fluid-slider (ratio 7:3) or fabulous-fluid-grid-large (ratio 168:113) for the featured content images? I’d like to use one of these ratios instead of the post-thumbnail (ratio: 420 x 283).

Hi,

I’m using Catch Box Pro and would like to change the way the elements of text display on the Featured Slider. Most likely I’d want them to be centered, bold, and larger than they currently display. In addition, I’d like to change the colon so that it is either replaced by a > or doesn’t have a space to the left of it or both). Ideally, I’d like to change the  post heading text separately (e.g. so it can be bold) from the text, but that’s less critical.

Can you please send me a sample I could put in the custom CSS that would allow me to change all these parameters?

Much appreciated!

Sunny

Now I have dealt with the plugin. The following points should be mentioned:
Point 3 of Oaben has done it, it works. Unfortunately you do not see this in the preview, but only after saving, when loading the page.

The preview is very bad, the page is wider than the screen and therefore not everything can be stored. Makes work a little cumbersome. So I took a look at Oxygen, they solved it very nicely. The preschhau works perfectly and the operation is sometimes easier.

To my requirements of the slider, second last section from above:
– genes -sided representation
– The slider should automatically switch to the next picture
– The pictures should be displayed in a random order
– The pictures should be able to be made. This means that the picture is switched on depending on the image -making dimension, for example to be conceived on a smartphone. Here I want to be able to determine with each picture whether the image is now displayed in which position.
-se should run like on my current website https://vah.ch/#featured-slider-section

It worked! Thank you SO much!!

I have one more question, if it’s permissible. I am using the Featured Slider on my home page, and I wanted to see if I could increase the size of the slider just a bit. Here is the preview link to my site:  https://ronfairchild.com/?share=6e330dec24c7a9c800e76ac8cdd80f92bcf5d7f5389a5b4a8d04474e04486a87

Thank you again!

@mperazzetti : I checked your site and I don’t seem to find any issue with the header image size. If you reduce the size of header image, part of images will be cropped and it might affect the view of your page.
Can you please let me know which images you are referring as sample images?
The rotating series of header images is know as featured slider section. The images change every four seconds.

Hi Tikaram

I’m afraid I really don’t understand. When I go to Customise => Featured Slider, I can see Select Slider Type: Demo or Page, so I’ve selected page. Then I see Featured Page #1 – #4 and these show the list of all my website pages ?? What I want to do is have 4 images in a slider on the Home page, not cycle through pages. As the site is live I’m loath to experiment with it when I don’t understand how to make it work in the way I want to. I have already loaded my 4 images into Header Image, so I’m totally at a loss, so please help!

I know there are lots of other slider plugins, but as I’m using Catch Themes and Featured Slider is the one embedded in my Home page style, I assume I have to use it.

Regards,

Phil
