@Jeff: Did you check in the Topic “How to Add Featured Post Slider?” in Theme Instructions page at http://catchthemes.com/theme-instructions/catch-evolution/.

1. First you need to create Post and add in Featured Image in your Post.
2. Then you can add that post ID in “Appearance => Theme Options => Featured Post Slider => Slider Options”.
See the screenshot on how to add in Post id http://www.pinterest.com/pin/548594798329984427/

@katyaY: I see that you are using Catch Everest Free theme. So, please check in theme instructions page http://catchthemes.com/theme-instructions/catch-everest/ for more details

1. Slider: Catch Everest Free theme only have option to use Featured Post Slider to highlight your post. So, first you need to create Post from “Add New => Posts” and in your post, you need to add in Featured Image as this image will be used as image for slider. Then you can go to “Appearance => Theme Options => Featured Post Slider => Slider Options” and add in your post ID. See the detail instruction at http://catchthemes.com/theme-instructions/catch-everest/

2. Homepage Featured Content Options: The 3 boxed and images. You can add link, upload images, title and text from “Appearance => Theme Options => Homepage Settings => Homepage Featured Content Options”.

3. Background: I see that you have added custom background from “Appearance => Background”

If you want more features then you can opt for Catch Everest Pro theme. See the details about additional features and theme instructions of pro version at http://catchthemes.com/theme-instructions/catch-everest-pro/

@MVS: You can add in “Code to display on Footer”.

Sorry Featured Post slider is created to Highlight our post. So, there is no option to hide. If needed you can update to Catch Everest Pro and use Featured Image Slider, where you can upload independent image as per you need and no need to link. As like, title and content are optional.

[MVS]

Ok thank you

1.Do I put the js-code you wrote, in the “Code to display on Header” or the “Code to display on Footer” of the “Webmaster-Tools”

I want to keep the pictures in the slider – but I don’t want the posts visible, in which I set a pic as featured content for the slider.
Is this possible?

[Sakin]

@Yusra_Urooj: Can you post in your site URL? If you are using Catch Everest Free theme then you should be able to enable it from “Appearance => Theme Options => Featured Post Slider => Slider Options => Enable Slider”. Also make sure that you have added Post ID in “Appearance => Theme Options => Featured Post Slider => Featured Post Slider Options”.

Can you check these settings and if this doesn’t work for you then send me your site URL.

[Sakin]

@MVS:
1. For your menu on Samsung. Can you try adding in the following JavaScipt code in “Appearance => Theme Options => Webmaster Tools => Header and Footer Codes => Code to display on Footer” box.

<script type="text/javascript">
// Open menu on first tap on touch devices.
jQuery(document).ready(function () {
	jQuery(".menu-item").has("ul").children("a").attr("aria-haspopup", "true");
});
</script>

2. I don’t understand you question here. Do you mean to exclude your slider post from homepage? If yes, then go to “Appearance => Theme Options => Featured Post Slider => Featured Post Slider Options” and click on “Exclude Slider post from Homepage posts” and save changes.

[Sakin]

@drshento: You are using Catch Everest Free version, where you have only one option to use in Slider. That is only Featured Post Slider, which is created to highlight your post in the slider. So, it will be liked to the post. The only option to remove that link will be to build child theme and remove the permalink.
But if you upgrade to Catch Everest Pro version, you will get “Featured Image Slider”, where you can upload the image and leave the link empty or to the desire URL. See this screenshot of Pro version http://www.pinterest.com/pin/548594798329509357/ and also check out the theme instruction page at http://catchthemes.com/theme-instructions/catch-everest-pro/

I don’t understand your second question and also your link is not opening.

[Sakin]

@shmuelhonig: That is Featured Post Slider to highlight your post. The image you are seeing is from demo slider. So, to replace that you need to add Post IDs in Featured Slider. You can see the detail instruction on “How to Add Featured Post Slider?” at http://catchthemes.com/theme-instructions/catch-box/ . Looking at your comment it doesn’t look, you are using Catch Box Theme. But since you have posted in Catch Box Theme Support Forum, I am giving you instructions on the basis of that. But if you are using different theme then you can go to Theme Instructions main page http://catchthemes.com/theme-instructions/ and select the theme for which you want to check out the instruction.

Currently this theme only supports Posts as the Featured Slider. To add Featured Slider, follow these basic steps:
1. Go to “Appearance => Theme Options => Featured Post Slider”
2. Click on Slider Options
3. Simply insert the ID numbers for posts in the respective boxes, one post ID number in each box
4. To change the slider effects and timing, go to Slider Effect Options which is just below Slider Options
5. Save your changes

Note:
* When you add the Post IDs, make sure your posts have Featured Images
* If you are unable to find post IDs, please install Catch IDs Plugin

@Sheree: You can remove the slider effect from “Appearance => Theme Options => Featured Slider => Slider Options” and then Disable Slider Background Effect.

[Sakin]

@cpoli: Just add the following css in “Appearance => Theme Options => Custom CSS” box
#slider-wrap .featured-text:hover { background-color: transparent; }

[Sakin]

@beren: You can select the Slider Type as “Image Slider” from “Appearance => Theme Options => Featured Slider => Slider Options”. Then you can upload the image of any size. So, first edit the height of your images and upload it in “Appearance => Theme Options => Featured Slider => Featured Image Slider Options”

[Sakin]

@cpoli: This is quite complicated css requested and you might need to hire developer to work for your. To move the slider text to the right you can add the following css in “Appearance => Theme Options => Custom CSS” box

#slider-wrap .featured-text {
    height: 100%;
    right: 0;
    width: 33%;
}

[Sakin]

@nch: Oh sorry. Catch Everest Free theme uses Featured Image for the post and slider image for the slider. For sizes see theme instruction at http://catchthemes.com/theme-instructions/catch-everest/.

But if you upgrade to Catch Everest Pro theme, you have option to choose featured image size in post/page from “Content Featured Image Options” in your edit post/page.

[Sakin]

@Drewmikita: Sorry Catch Everest Free theme only have option to use Featured Post Slider and will be linked to post. To add link to page, you need to use Featured Page Slider and to remove link or add link to custom link then you need to use Featured Image slider. For these slider choices, you need to upgrade to Catch Everest Pro theme. For more details, see the theme instruction of Pro version at http://catchthemes.com/theme-instructions/catch-everest-pro/

[Sakin]

@Juraj: You can just add the Image Title in your Featured Image Slider Options for image alt tag and then you can hide the slider text by adding in the following CSS in “Appearance => Theme Options => Custom CSS” box.
#slider .featured-text { display: none; }

[Sakin]

@Sheree: For spacing, you can add the following css in “Appearance => Theme Options => Custom CSS” box.

@media screen and (min-width: 961px) {
#primary {
    padding-left: 2%;
    width: 63.64%;
}
#secondary {
    width: 29.28%;
}
}
@media screen and (max-width: 960px) {
#primary, #secondary, .contact #primary, .contact #secondary {
    width: 96%;
    padding: 0 2%;
}
}

For the Slider image, you can use “Featured Image Slider” and upload the image of your own choice. so, first you can crop the image as per your need using photo editing software like Photoshop, Photo Editor and so on. Then upload it.

[Sakin]

@MVS: The Alt tag in the Featured Post slider image uses the Post Title. You can check the source in your site.

donestefano71, estoy enfrentada al mismo problema. He probado algunas de las cosas que comentan sin éxito. ¿Podrías hacer un resumen de lo que hiciste para resolver el problema de la traducción en el featured-slider. He perdido mucho tiempo intentando resolverlo

[Sakin]

@sbartsch: Can you go to “Appearance => Theme Options => Featured Post Slider => Featured Post Slider Options” and un-check “Exclude Slider post from Homepage posts?” and save changes.

[sbartsch]

Hi Sakin,

Thanks for the details. I have now created and designated a “Posts page” (I titled it “news & updates.” But how do I get posts to appear on that “News & Updates” posts page?

Prior to this, I have been creating posts separately – and only using them to connect with the “Featured Post Slider.”

Is there a way to get all my posts to appear on the “News and Updates” page? Or how does that function? – I guess, how does the News and Updates page pull in the posts I publish?

Any info would be greatly appreciated whenever you have a moment.
Thanks!!!

Kind regards,

SBARTSCH
