@reenad10: Hello there,
1 & 2. For that you will need to use Custom Type Featured Slider which is only available in the pro version of the theme. I suggest you to upgrade to pro. You can check out the additional-features available in the theme.

3. You seem to have a lot of text on the footer. However the footer seems to look fine on mobile view. Can you please elaborate the issue?

Let me know if this works out!
Kind Regards,
Skandha

@reenad10: Hello there,
Then,
Go to => Dashboard => Pages => Add new pages and set featured image for each page and Update the page.

Finally,
Go to => Appearance => Customize => Theme Options => Featured Slider => Enable the section and select the pages you created earlier and Publish.

Let me know if this works out!
Kind Regards,
Skandha

}

In addition, the settings for image position in the menu “theme options –> featured slider –> mobile use” are set to “center center”. But it just does not do this.

Thank you for the overlay – that works great.

I changed the Featured Slider to use Slider Type = Custom instead of a Post. I added the same image and now it is centered (was offset when I used Post as the source of the slider images). I can add Title and Content without anything changing. But, the 1920×720 image is expanded to fill the 1920×1200 screen, cropping off both sides and making everything else a little blurry. How do I simply keep the image to 720px height maximum?

Hello Skandha,

is it possible to put the Featured Slider Title “Featured Image-1, Featured Image-2 … to another place?
E.g. to the bottom right.

Kind Regards

@thetravelgal: Hello Cindy,
Can you please
Go to => Child Theme Folder => functions.php and add the following Code.

function remove_extra_image_sizes() {
	remove_image_size( 'catchresponsive-slider', 1200, 514, true ); // used for Featured slider Ratio 21:9

	remove_image_size( 'catchresponsive-featured-content', 350, 197, true ); // used in Featured Content and Portfolio Ratio 16:9

	remove_image_size( 'catchresponsive-hero', 528, 297, true ); // used in Hero Content

	//Archive Images
	remove_image_size( 'catchresponsive-featured', 860, 484, true); // used in Archive Top Ratio 16:9
	remove_image_size( 'catchresponsive-square', 200, 200, true ); // used in Archive Left/Right Ratio 1:1

	remove_image_size( 'catchresponsive-sm-square', 100, 100, true ); // used in Testimonials and Services Ratio 1:1

	remove_image_size( 'catchresponsive-stats', 40, 40, true ); // used in Stats Ratio 1:1
}
add_action('init', 'remove_extra_image_sizes');

And then regenerate the thumbnails.
Let me know if this works out!

Thank you so much for your answer! I will work on my images.

One (hopefully!) last question: how can I insert an image in the background as the one in the demo (https://catchthemes.com/demo/zubin-pro/), a little bit inside the featured slider?

Thank you so much for your kind attention.

Kind regards,
Camila

[camilavalgas]

Dear Skandha,

thank you so much, it worked!

Another question I have: in the theme demo (https://catchthemes.com/demo/zubin-pro/) there are some writings on the left side of the first slide, saying ‘collective design’. I have searched the option to write something like it but didn’t find anything. Do you know how can I activate this function to write some text on my featured slider as well?

Thank you!

Kind regards,
Camila Valgas

Oh, and if the text on the featured slider button would be customizable that would be awesome too. I use it for a gallery now, so “view gallery” would fit a lot more then ‘continue reading’…

@jkwildlife: Hello there,
First remove the background image that you selected in the customizer and
Go to => Appearance => Customize => Additional CSS and add the following CSS Code.

#masthead {
    background-image: url("https://www.jeroenkloppenburg.photography/wp-content/uploads/2021/03/prints-logo-emails2.jpg");
    background-repeat: no-repeat;
    background-size: cover;
}

The Featured Slider order issue has been fixed and an update will be released soon. I will let you know when the update is released.

Let me know if this works out!
Kind Regards,
Skandha

So, on the Alchemist Pro, there is “Image Overlay”, “Content Position” and “Text Alignment” are all there. Just go to “Appearance => Customize => Theme Options => Featured Slider”.
