2. To add Slider, you need to go to “Appearance => Theme Options => Featured Slider => Slider Options”. Then select Slider Type, Slider Layout and Enable Sidebar and setup accordingly. For more, refer to theme instructions page at http://catchthemes.com/theme-instructions/catch-box-pro/
Hi. On my work-in-progress website — http://029.b2b.myftpupload.com/ — I’d like to remove the gray space between the Featured Image Slider and the beginning of the text on my Home Page. I think that there’s enough black padding above my first line of text that I don’t need the additional bar of gray space there as well. What Custom CSS Code could I add to the site to tighten up the space between these two elements? Thanks. Bri
I’m looking to add a full width widget area on the homepage, above the recent posts and sidebar, but below the header and menu bar. I have a child theme, and was wondering if you could help me with adding CSS to do this?
I’m doing this because I don’t want to use the featured slider and would prefer to use a widget as an alternative.
@kemar:
1. To disable slider: you need to go to “Appearance => Customize => Featured Slider => Slier Options” and in “Enable Slider”, you need to select “Disable”. Then click on “Save & Publish”
2. To disable featured header: you need to go to “Appearance => Customize => Header Image” and in “Enable Featured Header Image”, you need to select “Disable”. Then click on “Save & Publish”
Please post in your Site URL is this is not working.
@Roy: In Full Frame Pro theme you can Slider Type as “Featured Image Slider, Featured Page Slider, Featured Post Slider and Featured Category Slider”, which you can choose from “Appearance => Customize => Featured Slider => Select Slider Type”.
After you select the slider type, you need to setup accordingly. If you select “Featured Image Slider”, then you can upload image, add in title, content and links as per your need and click on “Save & Publish” but if you choose other then you need to create page/post with featured image first.
Hi Sakin. I found your theme on wpsniffer but I’m trying to remove the sliders, featured images, etc. and be left with the responsive header and footer for a very simple and hopefully speedy site. (No posts, just a few pages.)
I’ve disabled them in the customizer, tried several css snippets you’ve posted in this forum (plus a php edit someone pasted) to hide featured images and sliders, cleared the cache in multiple browsers, etc. but nothing will get this tiger off my screen. I’m now using a child theme (thanks to Child Theme Configurator) and wanted to ask if there’s anything I may be overlooking.
I wont link because it just a coming soon page now. Help.
I’ve done that: enabled Featured Page Slider, selected 5 pages, added a feature image to all 5 pages. The slider works. BUT — it appears below the header space. I removed the static header image and disabled ‘enable feature header image on’ and the giant header space is still there. How do I get the slider to appear in that space?
Also, my feature image is not showing up on individual pages. ??
@monicavilas: Which plugin are you using it and if that is working in customizer then it should work in live as well. Or you can just build child theme, for child theme refer to http://catchthemes.com/blog/create-child-theme-wordpress/. You can also download sample Catch Base child theme from there and then add the following code in your child theme functions.php file
@Angel:
1. Sorry, that is how the WordPress Excerpt text works. If you want HTML code with formatting then try “Image Content” in Featured Content Type. Otherwise, you need to build child theme. For child theme refer to http://catchthemes.com/blog/create-child-theme-wordpress/ and then copy function catchkathmandu_featured_content_page() to your child theme functions.php file and edit it.
2. What do you want to change that next and previous arrow in the slider to. If you want to just change it from css. Then you can use the following css element and add your custom css in “Appearance => Theme Options => Custom CSS” box:
But if you want to change manually to text, then you need to build child theme and then copy function catchkathmandu_image_sliders() to your child theme functions.php file and edit it.
Hi,
I’ve built a website in two languages and now that is nearly done I realized there is one thing that doesn’t work. http://victorpanicello.com/
(It isn’t live yet.)
In my featured slider images there is some text (some images are graphs with text). That’s why I’ve uploaded different images (featured image in each page) for each language.
When I’m on the main page and change language this images in the slider doesn’t change.
The strange thing is that when I preview the web while customizing the featured slider it does work (so the image change when switching languages).
1. For featured content on the homepage I defined page content as content type, the content of the page is displayed however the HTML code that existed in the pages is being removed for some reason, leaving all plain and continuous text and without any type of formatting how can I get this fix, meaning including the HTML code in the featured content?
2. For featured slider I am using an image type, how can I replace the default back and next arrow by images?
@Tolu:
1. Catch Flames free theme have option only to use slider type as “Featured Page Slider” from “Appearance => Theme Options => Featured Slider => Slider Options
. So for this slider, you need to create page and then add featured image in your page. After that you need to assign that page in slider from “Appearance => Theme Options => Featured Slider => Featured Page Slider Options”. This will take featured image and text from the page selected and will link to respective page.
But if you want independent image slider where you can upload image and link to anywhere you like it then you need to select slider type as “Featured Image Slider”. For this, you need to upgrade to Pro version.
2. To edit/remove the footer copyright information, you need to upgrade to pro version and edit it from “Appearance => Theme Options => Footer Editor Options”. In free version, you need to do it manually by building child theme and editing the code.
@Cathy: It depends on the Slider Type you choose. The recommended side as per our design is Width: 978px and Height: 375px which has been mentioned in our theme instructions page at http://catchthemes.com/theme-instructions/catch-mustang/. But if you select slider type as “Featured Image Slider”, then you can upload image with the size you need.
@tomoyoma: I see that you have no featured slider but slider is still on. So, if you don’t need slider then go to “Appearance => Theme Options => Featured Post Slider” and heck in. Otherwise, you can add the following css in “Appearance => Theme Options => Custom CSS” box: #slider { display: none; }
I’m setting up a film blog and posted several stories on the site and included featured images and added them to the slider. There was no issues i scaled the images to appropriate size and it looked great. Suddenly one day some of the pictures seemed to change back to there original format on their own whilst others still were cropped correctly. I’ve tried cropped them again but it hasn’t made a difference. my site is http://www.reeltimereviews.com. Some of the images i’ve added have a white blocks on the side as if they don’t fit in the slider
@09Shan: Not sure what you mean. Can you explain in reference with your site URL? In Simple Catch Free theme there is Featured Post Slider, which take featured image of the post in the custom size called slider with size 976px width and 313px height.
