Sorry, Sakin, I shouldn’t have reported two problems, but can’t figure out how to report it separately. Anyway, when I got the permalink 404, I reset everything back to defaults – just like you suggested – and have double checked that. Still have the continue reading… problem though.

(as an aside, Theme Options->Featured Post Slider->Click Here To Edit gives 404 also. Doesn’t build the path correctly. Tries to use …nsapp.com/wp-admin… when it is actually …nsapp.com/blog/wp-admin…)

@Michael: Change the color code in the following css and then add it in “Appearance => Theme Options => Custom CSS” box.
.featured-slider .slides { background-color: #fafafa; }

[Sakin]

@Ruby: Thank for reporting issue in Featured Content Healing issue. We have just got that info also from @Jessica and we are working on Fixed in both Adventurous Free and Pro version. We will fixed this as soon as possible. Please wait for version 1.1

There is no option to change the color of slider controllers colors. For this you need to add Custom CSS. So, change the color code in the following css as per your need and then add it in “Appearance => Theme Options => Custom CSS” box.

/* For Default */
#controllers a { background-color: #fff; }
/* For Hover and Active */
#controllers a:hover, #controllers a.active { background-color: #7c9b30; }

@Djapeto: If you are using Catch Kathmandu Free theme then you only have option to use either “Featured Post Slider” or “Feature Category Slider” both are there to highlight your posts. The text will be from the Post Title and Post Excerpt Content. So, when you click on image or title, it will link to the post assigned.

You can see it in our Theme Instruction page at http://catchthemes.com/theme-instructions/catch-kathmandu/ where you can read “Featured Post” section for more details.

Also you can check out tutorial about “Featured Post Slider” at http://catchthemes.com/blog/videos-blog/video-series-adding-featured-post-slider/

But if you are using Catch Kathmandu Pro version then you have extra options to use “Image Slider” or “Page Slider”. So, in pro version you have total 4 types of slider. Which you can see at http://catchthemes.com/theme-instructions/catch-kathmandu-pro/

Also you can check out tutorial about “Featured Image Slider” at http://catchthemes.com/blog/videos-blog/video-series-adding-featured-image-slider/

@Michael: You can add the following css in “Appearance => Theme Options => Custom CSS” box.
#featured-post img, #main-slider img { box-shadow: none; }

.featured-slider .slides img {

}

Hello Jim,

This is bit difficult as it’s responsive design. So, let’s change that only for large screen. Try adding in the following css in “Appearance => Theme Options => Custom CSS” box.

/* For Screen size minimum 769px */
@media screen and (min-width: 769px) {
    #main-slider .featured-img {
        float: right;
        width: 68%;
    }
}

Regards,
Sakin

Sakin, sorry for not being clear. Curently the theme allow for full width (1000px) images in the featured slider. I would like to take that full width and divide it into twosections. (667px) to the right side would house images that slide. The remaining 333px on the left would be a static text box, I hope I have been more clear. Thanks, Jim

@shamwow: Which slider type you are using it. If you are using Featured Image Slider, then you can add in link in the “Link” box. See this screenshot of Image Slider Options http://www.pinterest.com/pin/548594798329509357/ where you have option to add in Image URL, Link URL, Target, Title and Content as you need it.

I am not so sure what you are talking about. If you are talking different then please explain in reference with your site URL.

[Sakin]

@devnet: I see that you have added the post ID 2762, title “Manjaro Linux – My Current Distribution” in your Featured Post Slider. So, I guess you have check on “Exclude Slider post from Home page posts”. Can you go to “Appearance => Theme Options => Featured Post Slider => Add Slider Options” and check your settings.

[Sakin]

@jim tobin: Simple Catch Free theme only have option to use Featured Post Slider, which is there to highlight your post and it takes the post title, excerpt content and featured image from the post IDs. So, it will link to post.

The featured that you are asking can be fulfilled by “Featured Image Slider” where you can upload independent image, title, content and links all optional. For this, you need to upgrade to Pro version. There are other nice additional features, find out at http://catchthemes.com/theme-instructions/simple-catch-pro

Or you may use redirect plugin to redirect your post URL to homepage. So, it will not show that post.

[Sakin]

@Sanan94: Sorry I don’t get it what you mean, there is nothing changes in version 1.7. It’s just Italian language addition.

If you are using Featured Post Slider in Catch Kathmandu Free theme, then you can see it in Theme Instructions page at http://catchthemes.com/theme-instructions/catch-kathmandu/, that our Featured Post slider uses the image size of Width: 1280px and Height: 550px. So, if you add have added featured image larger then this size then it will crop in exact this size. But if you have added featured image smaller then this size then it will show the original image you have uploaded.

But we have Featured Image Slider in Pro version where you can upload image size of your own choice.

[Sakin]

@Kendra: It’s mention in Theme Instructions page at http://catchthemes.com/theme-instructions/catch-kathmandu-pro/. Just read the topic “Featured Slider”. There you have option to choose slider type as Featured Post Slider or Featured Page Slider or Featured Category Slider or Featured Image Slider. Choose the type and fill in the necessary fields.

[Sakin]

@Leonie: You can upload any image in your featured image slider. If you are having difficulty adding in the image from uploads. Then you can edit your image from Post Thumbnail editor and then copy that image URL and just paste that image url in Featured Image Slider Options.

Hi Sakin,

I have put a calendar/events widget into my Optional Sidebar 1 on my Visit Us page. Is there a way I can centre the widget content within the Sidebar ?

Also, is there a way to change the colour of all (or individual) widget borders in the sidebars ? I’m going to see what they look like in my colour themes of ~516856 or #A16f3C.

I’ve also altered a couple of things in the main.css before I realised that it needed to be done in “Appearance => Theme Options => Custom CSS”. Does this mean I’ll lose it when I update to the new release of CK Pro ? If so can I preserve my CSS changes by copying them into “Appearance => Theme Options => Custom CSS”.

The code I think is ;

/* =Slider
————————————————————– */

#main-slider {
background-color: #516856;
border-bottom: 3px solid #516856;
clear: both;
display: block;
position: relative;
padding: 0;
}
.featured-slider {
position: relative;
}
.featured-slider .slides {
margin: 0;
padding: 0;
}
.featured-slider .slides img {
box-shadow: none;
margin: 0 auto;
}
.featured-img a img {
display: block;
height: auto;
margin: 0 auto;
max-width: 100%;
}
#main-slider .entry-container {
background-color: #A16f3c; /* Show a solid color for older browsers */
background-color: rgba(161, 111, 60, 0.6);
border: 1px solid transparent;
color: #fff;
width: 350px;
width: 35rem;
padding: 10px 25px 15px;
padding: 1rem 2.5rem 1.5rem;
position: absolute;
bottom: 50px;
bottom: 5rem;
left: 50px;
left: 5rem;
}
#main-slider .entry-container:hover {
background-color: #A16f3c; /* Show a solid color for older browsers */
background-color: rgba(161, 111, 60, 1);
border: 1px solid #516856;
color: #fff;
}

Many Thanks
Ian

Hi Sakin.

Ok, I am back asking for some help in getting the site to look like the attached image, that we talked about before. I am using Kathmandu-Pro.

I have the theme set up as a child theme and I have the “Homepage Featured Image” turned on and the “Slider” turned off.

Can you please tell me how I can get the form on top of the “Homepage Featured Image” as shown in the mockup below…??

Thanx much in advance.

Best,

–d.

Hello Silvan,

It’s cool that you fixed the background.

Another I don’t understand. If you want to disable Featured Slider then you can disable it from “Appearance => Theme Options => Featured Slider => Slider Options” and in “Enable Slider”, you can select “Disable” and save changes.

Regards,
Sakin

@Janet:
1. Yes, there is about 15px margin about your css, which you can remove it by adding in the following css in “Appearance => Theme Options => Custom CSS” box.
#header-right .widget { margin-top: 0; }

2. The text below the slider, are you talking about Homepage Headline with the text “Lockhart’s Premier Rental Event Center”. For that you can change the text color from “Appearance => Theme Options => Color Options => Site Color Options” and change “Homepage Headline Color” and save changes.

3. I already gave you the css to change the contact button. You can change the color code in the following css and add it in “Appearance => Theme Options => Custom CSS” box.

#homepage-message .right-section a {
    background-color: #9bc23c;
    color: #fff;
} 
#homepage-message .right-section a:hover {
    background-color: #87ae28;
    color: #fff;
}

4. To remove that white space, you can add the following css in “Appearance => Theme Options => Custom CSS” box.
#featured-post { border: none; margin-bottom: 0; }

5. At the bottom of the page is the blue footer where the copyright is (and the copyright text is still in white).
— For copyright background color, you can change it from “Appearance => Theme Options => Color Options => Site Color Options” and then change “Footer Background Color” and save change.
— Footer copyright text color, you can add the following css in “Appearance => Theme Options => Custom CSS” box.

#site-generator { color: #1B5F7D; }
#site-generator a { color: #1B5F7D; }

Sakin, I can’t find any option to upload or embed and image but you can see the page here: chisholmtrailballroom.com

From the top down:

1. I added your recommended code to reduce the header size. It’s better but I sure wish there was some way to make it even smaller. There’s a good 1/2″ above the text and logo and close to that below the menu options. I tried the css code you recommended in #2 above but that raised the title text but not the logo, so they were no longer side by side but skewed with one partially above the other. Did not look good at all.

2. The text below the slider images is still white. I’ve changed every place where a color is specified. The only white that remains is the rollover color for the main menu. There is obviously someplace I haven’t checked but I don’t know where that is.

3. Is there any way to big lime green CONTACt button that displays in the middle of the page. I didn’t insert the css code you listed in #4 above because I wasn’t sure you knew I meant the button in the middle of the page and not the menu in the header. I was successful at changing the colors of the header menu but not the green contact button.

4. Below the footer area that displays the Homepage Featured Content Options images (there are two right now: Amenities and Packages) is another “footer” area that is simply a white bar across the screen. That footer had a Page in it but when I deleted the page (added by accident) the footer remained as an empty white bar. How can I either move the Blog Traffic widget up or eliminate that bar? I already tried moving the Blog Traffic widget from Footer Area Four to Footer Area One and it made no difference.

5. At the bottom of the page is the blue footer where the copyright is (and the copyright text is still in white).

I appreciate your help. I’m pretty overwhelmed trying to get these last items taken care of.
