Hi @gfde,

Thank you for using Catch Base Pro.
The image you are seeing is the Demo Slider. To change the slider, go to “Dashboard=> Appearance=> Customize=> Featured Slider”. In Catch Base Pro, you have five different Slider Type options:
1. Demo Slider (Displays Demo Slider)
2. Page Slider (Displays selected page in slider. Select Page)
3. Post Slider (Displays selected post in slider. Select Post ID)
4. Image Slider (Displays selected image in slider. Upload Image)
5. Category Slider (Displays selected category’s post in slider. Select Category)
Choose one of the above option from drop-down in Select Slider Type and the choose number of sliders.
The Slider options varies as per the Slider Type selected.

Hope this helps you.

Regards,
Mahesh

Hi @marga,

Thank you for your appreciation.
1. In Catch Base Free version, feature to change copyright text is not available, however, it is available in Catch Base Pro. I recommend you to upgrade to pro version.

2. For removing link from slider, you have to create a child theme. You can find more details on creating child theme HERE. Then in functions.php add the following codes.

function catchbase_page_slider( $options ) {
	$quantity		= absint( $options['featured_slide_number'] );

	global $post;

    $output 				= '';
    $number_of_page 		= 0; 		// for number of pages
	$page_list				= array();	// list of valid page ids

	//Get number of valid pages
	for( $i = 1; $i <= $quantity; $i++ ){
		if( isset ( $options['featured_slider_page_' . $i] ) && $options['featured_slider_page_' . $i] > 0 ){
			$number_of_page++;

			$page_list	=	array_merge( $page_list, array( $options['featured_slider_page_' . $i] ) );
		}

	}

	if ( !empty( $page_list ) && $number_of_page > 0 ) {
		$get_featured_posts = new WP_Query( array(
			'posts_per_page'	=> $quantity,
			'post_type'			=> 'page',
			'post__in'			=> $page_list,
			'orderby' 			=> 'post__in'
		));
		$i=0;

		while ( $get_featured_posts->have_posts()) {
			$get_featured_posts->the_post();

			$i++;

			$title_attribute =the_title_attribute( array( 'before' => __( 'Permalink to:', 'catch-base' ), 'echo' => false ) );

			$excerpt = get_the_excerpt();

			if ( $i == 1 ) { $classes = 'page pageid-'.$post->ID.' hentry slides displayblock'; } else { $classes = 'page pageid-'.$post->ID.' hentry slides displaynone'; }
			$output .= '
			<article class="'.$classes.'">
				<figure class="slider-image">';
				if ( has_post_thumbnail() ) {
					$output .= get_the_post_thumbnail( $post->ID, 'catchbase_slider', array( 'title' => esc_attr( $title_attribute ), 'alt' => esc_attr( $title_attribute ), 'class'	=> 'attached-page-image' ) );
				}
				else {
					//Default value if there is no first image
					$catchbase_image = '<img class="pngfix wp-post-image" src="'.get_template_directory_uri().'/images/gallery/no-featured-image-1200x514.jpg" >';

					//Get the first image in page, returns false if there is no image
					$catchbase_first_image = catchbase_get_first_image( $post->ID, 'medium', array( 'title' => esc_attr( $title_attribute ), 'alt' => esc_attr( $title_attribute ), 'class' => 'attached-page-image' ) );

					//Set value of image as first image if there is an image present in the page
					if ( '' != $catchbase_first_image ) {
						$catchbase_image =	$catchbase_first_image;
					}

					$output .= $catchbase_image;
				}

				$output .= '
				</figure><!-- .slider-image -->
				<div class="entry-container">
					<header class="entry-header">
						<h1 class="entry-title">
							<a title="' . the_title_attribute( array( 'before' => __( 'Permalink to:', 'catch-base' ), 'echo' => false ) ) . '" href="' . get_permalink() . '">'.the_title( '<span>','</span>', false ).'</a>
						</h1>
						<div class="assistive-text">'.catchbase_page_post_meta().'</div>
					</header>';
					if( $excerpt !='') {
						$output .= '<div class="entry-content">'. $excerpt.'</div>';
					}
					$output .= '
				</div><!-- .entry-container -->
			</article><!-- .slides -->';
		}

		wp_reset_query();
  	}
	return $output;
}

Hi @tracypost,

Sorry for the inconvenience.
The theme features in Catch Responsive and Simple Catch is little different. Catch Responsive allows you to display the slider using page’s featured image, whereas Simple Catch allows you to display the slider using post’s featured image.
The feature you’ve mentioned is available in Catch Responsive Pro. I recommend you to upgrade to Catch Responsive Pro.

Mahesh

Hi @Daniel,

Sorry there. Thank you for using Catch Box Pro.
For gif images in slider, go to “Dashboard=> Appearance=> Theme Options=> Featured Slider (Tab)” and select Featured Image Slider in Select Slider Type option. Then scroll down you’ll see Featured Image Slider Options, click on Add/Change button in image and choose your desired gif image. After you’re done, click Save.

Let me know if this helps with your issue.

Regards,
Mahesh

I subsitute the slider by one main image in the header. I would like that images download in #header-featured-image be systematically resized, 1200px for the width, 300px for the height.
Currently, images are resized at 1200px for width, 400px for height. I know that I can resize images manually, but it’s important that it be computerized. I hope I have been clear…Thank you!

HI @benowchiro,

In free version, there is only featured post slider and featured category slider. The images for both these are automatically re-sized so it is not possible to fix a certain height as they are pre-build. So, they cannot be resized with custom CSS.

If you upgrade to pro version, you can select a featured image slider in which you can add images with custom height for your need. The details of pro version is here

Pratik

I tried that but it didn’t work. Perhaps I’m using the wrong terminology. I have a featured slider as the main image at the top of the page, the primary menu is positioned above this featured image. I wish to move the menu below the image just above the words of the web page

Thanks

Paul

Hello, I am also using “Featured Page Slider” in Catch Base Free theme – everything works fine but the slider stops at final slide rather than looping back to the beginning. I can’t find any control for this – is there some code I can add in?

[Mahesh]

Hi @rickm813,

Yes, there is an inbuilt setting for this feature in both themes.
You’ve already set the slider for the homepage only, so I’ll skip this one. The next in to enable Header Featured Image in all other pages excluding Homepage.
1. Go to “Dashboard=> Appearance=> Customize=> Header Image”.
2. Add an image you want as Header Featured Image or select any image from suggested if you’ve already uploaded.
3. Select “Excluding Homepage” option from “Enable Featured Header Image on” dropdown.
4. Click “Save & Publish” button and check.

Regards,
Mahesh

@snouks: Hi Andrea,

Oh you are using Gernman Language. Sorry, I don’t understand it and I am using Google translate to understand your support request.

I see that you are tying to add in Featured Slider. For this you can refer to theme instructions at http://catchthemes.com/theme-instructions/catch-responsive-pro/#featured-slider . First, you need to select slider type. Catch Responsive Pro supports 4 featured slider types to choose from: Featured Post Slider, Featured Page Slider, Featured Category Slider and Featured Image Slider.

For Featured Slider Options, go to “Appearance => Customize => Featured Slider => Featured Slider Options”. Then use it as per your need.

[Sakin]

@joein610:
1. Feature Slider
You can change the Demo Slider image to any image you like. First you need to select the slider type. Catch Responsive Pro supports 4 featured slider types to choose from: Featured Post Slider, Featured Page Slider, Featured Category Slider and Featured Image Slider. For more check it out at http://catchthemes.com/theme-instructions/catch-responsive-pro/#featured-slider

You image cycling though image is not happening. First, can you update theme to latest version 3.5.1 as you are using old version 3.0 where you have fixed so many issues. For change log refer to http://catchthemes.com/changelogs/catch-responsive-pro-theme/

2. Featured Content
It’s same. You can check out instructions at http://catchthemes.com/theme-instructions/catch-responsive-pro/#featured-content

Then I can check in why it’s not sliding. It might be plugin conflict issue as well. For this, you need to deactivate plugin one by one and check in.

@treboroom: Hi Robert,

The site you are referring to uses Full Width like our theme Clean Journal Pro, Full Frame Pro, Catch Flames Pro and Adventurous Pro. Check out at http://catchthemes.com/themes/category/premium/. But Catch Responsive Pro uses maximum fixed width. So, changing to this theme will be little difficult and you need lot of custom css. Best is to change the theme. Otherwise, try the following css:

.site {
    width: 100%;
}
#feature-slider .cycle-slideshow {
    max-width: 100%;
}
#feature-slider .cycle-slideshow img {
    width: 100%;
    height: auto;
}
/* 460px; */
@media screen and (min-width: 1100px) {
#header-featured-image,
#masthead,
#promotion-message,
#featured-content, 
.site-content,
#colophon {
    margin: 0 auto;
    width: 460px;
}
/* 520px; */
@media screen and (min-width: 1100px) {
#header-featured-image,
#masthead,
#promotion-message,
#featured-content, 
.site-content,
#colophon {
    width: 520px;
}
/* 560px; */
@media screen and (min-width: 1100px) {
#header-featured-image,
#masthead,
#promotion-message,
#featured-content, 
.site-content,
#colophon {
    width: 560px;
}
/* 660px; */
@media screen and (min-width: 1100px) {
#header-featured-image,
#masthead,
#promotion-message,
#featured-content, 
.site-content,
#colophon {
    width: 660px;
}
/* 740px; */
@media screen and (min-width: 1100px) {
#header-featured-image,
#masthead,
#promotion-message,
#featured-content, 
.site-content,
#colophon {
    width: 740px;
}
/* 960px; */
@media screen and (min-width: 1100px) {
#header-featured-image,
#masthead,
#promotion-message,
#featured-content, 
.site-content,
#colophon {
    width: 960px;
}
/* 1040px; */
@media screen and (min-width: 1100px) {
#header-featured-image,
#masthead,
#promotion-message,
#featured-content, 
.site-content,
#colophon {
    width: 1040px;
}
/* 1100px; */
@media screen and (min-width: 1100px) {
#header-featured-image,
#masthead,
#promotion-message,
#featured-content, 
.site-content,
#colophon {
    width: 1100px;
}
/* 1200px; */
@media screen and (min-width: 1200px) {
#header-featured-image,
#masthead,
#promotion-message,
#featured-content, 
.site-content,
#colophon {
    width: 1200px;
}

Sorry, I cannot make 100% sure about this css. It’s advance.

Hi @rflores,

The image displayed in the slider and the blog post is the same image i.e. Featured Image. The image used inside the post content has nothing to do with it. The image selected as featured image is automatically cropped to 210*210 image to be displayed in the post list as thumbnail.

Let me know if any problem.

Regards,
Mahesh

[Mahesh]

Hi @Robert,

For removing space between featured slider and featured content, go to “Dashboard=> Appearance=> Customize=> Theme Options=> Custom CSS” and add the following CSS.

#feature-slider{
    padding-bottom: 0;
}

For full-width slider, Sakin will answer it, its a bit complicated.

Regards,
Mahesh

[Sakin]

@adunning: You can add any number of posts in featured post slider. You can refer to http://catchthemes.com/blog/videos-blog/video-series-adding-featured-post-slider/

[rflores]

Thanks Mahesh. A little more help please, so I understand the process for using images in a post and in an image slider. Currently, I have the “post slider” option selected. I use an image 210 x 210 and insert into post, and update. I’ll then select an image for slider that is 976 x 312 and select this image as a featured image into the slider. Is this correct? Sorry for the beginner questions, but I am very close to creating a good url for a beginner to this process.

Again, thank you very much for your assistance.

rflores

[Robert]

Thank @Mahesh. So I’m hoping to get the featured slider to look something like this ******* or ******. Also wondering about removing space between featured slider and featured content. My site is: http://www.theshokoshow.com/

[Mahesh]

Hi @Frank,

For that, first disable the slider. Go to “Dashboard=> Appearance=> Customize=> Featured Slider=> Slider Options” and select “Disable” option in “Enable Slider” dropdown. Then go back to “Customize=> Header Image” and select “Entire Site, Page/Post Featured Image” option from “Enable Featured Header Image” dropdown. Click “Save & Publish” and check the front page.

Regards,
Mahesh
