Hi Sakin,

Thank you for your email.

I have purchased Full Frame Pro.

If I swap from ‘demo’ to ‘Featured Image Slider’ and I have uploaded four images that are of the correct size (1680X720) yet they appears too small and aligned to the left.

I attach screen shots.

Thank you for your help.

Kind Regards
Francis

Demo

@Jean-Paul: Sorry there is no option to do that. Featured Images are used for Archive/homepage and for slider. As you can just add your featured image in your page/post content editor and it will display it.

But have you tried in “Header Featured Image Options” from your Theme Options panel. There in “Enable Featured Header Image” you can choose “Pages & Posts”.

My uploaded images are the same size as in the “demo” featured slider (i.e. 1680 X 720) , however when I swop to my uploaded images they are smaller than the demo images and placed of the left with space to the right.

@shellfish_tracker: Why don’t you use Featured Image Slider so that you can upload the image, title and link all as per your need. For that just go to “Appearance => Customize => Featured Slider Options => Featured Content Type” and select “Featured Image Content” then upload image, link, title and content all as per your need.

For more, check out theme instructions page at http://catchthemes.com/theme-instructions/catch-base-pro/

@shellfish_tracker: Yes there are lot and the user mainly likes Catch Base Pro:
1. Featured Slider Type: Here you change select Featured Image Slider or Featured Page Slider or Featured Post Slider or Featured Category Slider.
2. Footer Editor Option
3. Color Options
4. Additional Sidebars
5. Featured Content Type: Here you change select Featured Image Content or Featured Page Content or Featured Post Content or Featured Category Content.
Many more additional featured which is highlighted in Theme Instructions of Catch Base Pro.

@Leanvdm: In free Catch Base free version, you have option to use only Featured Page Slider which will take featured image, title and text from your page. So, the only way to hide the text in the slider will be to add in the following css in “Appearance => Theme Options => Custom CSS” box:
#feature-slider .entry-container { display: none; }

You might also want to check out Catch Base Pro which has option to use Featured Image Slider, which you can just upload the image as per your need. There are other additional features as well, which is listed in theme instructions page at http://catchthemes.com/theme-instructions/catch-base-pro/

[Sakin]

@shellfish_tracker: Catch Base Free version only have option to use Featured Page slider and this slider take the page title. So, you need to edit the page title to reflect it in you slider. You can use css to hide the title and content, if you need. But for this please share your site URL.

You might want to try Catch Base Pro where you will get Featured Image Slider where you can upload image, write title, content and link (all optional). Read more about it from theme instructions page at http://catchthemes.com/theme-instructions/catch-base-pro/

@Naomi: You need to create more pages. So, that you can add in more image as one page will have one featured image. Featured Page Slider will link to page if you want independent image then you need to use Featured Image Slier which is there only in Catch Base Pro theme. See more info about Catch Base Pro at http://catchthemes.com/theme-instructions/catch-base-pro/

Hi Sakin

I am using Catch Base. I can’t make the slider function work: I seem to have only “featured page” and “demo” options. When I use “featured page,” I get the title and site content, along with the featured image.

I just want a few featured images, without page information (or without being part of a page) for my slider. How do I make that work?

I am using the free version of Catch Base.

Thanks for your help!

@Leanvdm: For Catch Base Free theme slider, check out theme instructions at http://catchthemes.com/theme-instructions/catch-base/#featured-slider

You can see that in free version, you have option to replace that demo slider with Page Slider. For that you need to go to “Appearance => Customize => Featured Slider Options => Select Slider Type” and select “Featured Page Slider”. Then you you can select pages in Featured Page #1, Featured Page #2, Featured Page #3 and Featured Page #1. If you want more then 4, then you need to change the number in “No of Slides”. After you change the number you need to refresh your customizer then it will show you more page selector. So, it will take the selected page featured image. So, if you add 4 pages, then it will show 4 sliding image and so on.

@fan: Ok then add the following css in “Appearance => Theme Options => Custom CSS” box:
#slider-wrap .featured-text { display: none; }

I’m sorry, I meant the bottom part of the featured picture slider it’s a transparent shadow and shows the post title and the order of slides in dots.

I’d like to hide all that and just have pictures transform in each other like the demo page does

[Sakin]

@jamesremy: I just check in your site and the slider and featured content is working fine.

[jamesremy]

Hi there, I’ve lost my featured content and homepage slider today and I don’t know how to get it back. When I enable the featured slider for the entire site, it shows up, but not when only for the homepage. I’m using catch everest.

@erin: That tiger images are from The Featured Slider. By default, Demo Featured Slider will be loaded and will show that tigers sliding.

In Adventurous Free theme, you have Featured Slider type as “Post Slider or Category Slider. So, first you need to create Post and assign featured image in your post. Then go to “Appearance => Theme Options => Featured Slider => Slider Options” and in “Select Slider Type”, you can select either Post Slider or Category Slider. If you choose post slider, then you need to add in Post ID in “Appearance => Theme Options => Featured Slider => Features Post Slider Options”. See this video screencast http://catchthemes.com/blog/videos-blog/video-series-adding-featured-post-slider/ and if you choose category slider, then you need to select the category from “Appearance => Theme Options => Featured Slider => Features Category Slider Options”. For more check out theme instructions page at http://catchthemes.com/theme-instructions/adventurous/

Note: In pro version you have more features, for that check out theme instruction of adventurous pr at http://catchthemes.com/theme-instructions/adventurous-pro/

@Josue Salazar: You shouldn’t edit/add any files inside core theme folder ‘catch-flames’. As all these edits will be reverted back to original when you update or upgrade the theme.

The slider you see in Catch Flames theme is the demo images. In Catch Flames free theme, there is option to change this demo images with your Page Slider images. For that, first you need to create pages and assign featured image in those pages. For featured image, check this http://catchthemes.com/blog/videos-blog/video-series-adding-featured-image-wordpress-postpage/. Then, you need to go to “Appearance => Theme Options => Featured Slider => Slider Options”, there in “Select Slider Type” you need to check in “Featured Page Slider”. Then you will see Featured Page Slider options box below, there you need to select the pages and save changes. For more check our theme instructions page at http://catchthemes.com/theme-instructions/catch-flames/

But if you upgrade to Catch Flames Pro, you will have option to change that demo slider to “Page Slider or Post Slider or Category Slider or Independent Image Slider.

@Tammy: Are you using Full Frame Free version.
If you want to remove it then you can go to “Appearance => Customize => Featured Slider Options => Featured Slider Settings” and in “Enable Slider on”, you need to select “Disabled”.

But if you want to replace that with your own images. Then in Free version you have option to replace that Demo Slider Image with “Featured Page Slider. For then you can go to “Appearance => Customize => Featured Slider Options => Featured Slider Type” and select “Featured Page Slider”. Then select the pages which you want to show as slider image. This is will take Featured image, title and excerpt text of that pages you have select. That’s why don’t forget to assign Featured Image http://catchthemes.com/blog/videos-blog/video-series-adding-featured-image-wordpress-postpage/.

@Cyril:
1. You can add the following css in “Appearance => Theme Options => Custom CSS” box:
#slider .slider-title { color: #aaa; font-weight: bold; }

2. This cannot be done with custom css. So, you might want to build child theme and edit slider function. Hum, first let’s try new CSS3, where we will hide : and add -. Can you try adding in the following css in “Appearance => Theme Options => Custom CSS” box:

.featured-text-wrap .slider-title:after {
background-color: #ddd;
content: '';
display: inline-block;
margin-left: 10px;
height: 1px;
vertical-align: middle;
width: 10px;
}
.featured-text-wrap .sep {
display: none;
}

That fixed it! The plugin ‘Map Images’ (Version 1.4.2) was causing the issue. Disabled the plugin and reset the the ‘Excerpt/More Tag’ setting and it fixed the featured slider.

Thanks for the quick and simple fix Sankin. This theme and your support is awesome!

@Troy: To add more slider image, you just need to go to “Appearance => Theme Options => Featured Slider => Slider Options” and in “Number of Slides” you can increase the number.

Sorry there is no option to add image under the slider.
