Ok. I’ve put the Slider back on. Do you want me to put the photo I want to use again, with the text?

[Sakin]

@rbrek: Yes, I need to check in your slider.

[rbrek]

http://www.restlesshearts.us I’ve now removed the Slider completely, but can put it back up if need be. I didn’t leave the photo I had in it, as it looks weird with the text from my post showing.

[Sakin]

@rbrek: Please post in your site URL so that I can check in.

[rbrek]

Nope. I put in the 849 x 565 photo and it still shows some of the text from my post. How do I get rid of that? That’s happened before too. I am using the Free theme. Shouldn’t this be easy?

Sakin-

As a test before the launch, we moved our (local) site to a public domain. And, while most items worked correctly, some did not, e.g. featured sliders, our logo, and posted images.

While I could change the featured sliders’ URL, we could not get our logo and posted images to appear as they still referenced the old domain even though the image URL’s were correct.

Then we did the ‘search-and-replace’ you recommended. Now everything works correctly!

Thanks for saving us hours of lost time.

@Heinrich: In Catch Box Pro theme, tou can choose the category to show in homepage from “Appearance => Theme Options => Homepage/Frontpage Category Setting”. Just select the multiple categories from which you want to show the post.

Then for the the slide, you can choose the Category Slider. Go to “Appearance => Theme Options => Featured Slider => Slider Options”, then select Featured Category Slider. Then in Featured Category Slider Options, select the category that you want to show for slider.

@rbrek: If you are using Catch Evolution Pro Image Slider, then you can simply upload the image and add the image url. It will show the image auto adjust.

But for Catch Evolution Free theme, there in featured post slier where it auto cuts the image as per the size. So, you can use the image 849 x 565 pixels

Actually Sakin, I want to buy a photo from iStock to use as my Featured Photo. The small size (and closest to your dimensions) is 849 x 565 pixels. Your slider uses 644 x 320. Or should I buy the x-small photo and enlarge it? How do I adjust the sizing in WordPress to fit in the slider? Do you know? Thanks!

[rbrek]

That’s what I needed to know. Thank you so much Sakin!

@CaptivatingHearts: Sorry there is not easy option to remove separator. You need to build child theme and in then edit the function simplecatch_sliders()

We have just added it in update for Simple Catch Version 2.6.7 where you will get separator control through custom css. But this version has to be approved by WordPress.org and set to live. So, it can take up to 7 days to live it.

After you get update, you can add the following CSS in “Appearance => Theme Options => Custom CSS” box to hide it.
.featured-text .slider-sep { display: none; }

[Sakin]

@rbrek: Those are the sample images to demonstrate the Slider. In free version of Catch Evolution theme, you will get Featured Post Slider. So, you need to create post with featured image and then add that post ID in “Appearance => Theme Options => Featured Post Slider”. The size of the images are Width: 644px and Height: 320px.

You can read detail instruction at http://catchthemes.com/theme-instructions/catch-evolution/

You can also take a look at Catch Evolution Pro version for Advance Featured Slider. Read more features at http://catchthemes.com/theme-instructions/catch-evolution-pro/

@Dudley: You can add the following CSS in “Appearance => Theme Options => Custom CSS” box.

/* Remove Slider Text */
#slider-wrap .featured-text {
    display: none;
}
/* Move Social Icon */
@media screen and (min-width: 768px) {
#sidebar-header-right {
    padding-top: 55px;
}
}

Would you mind take a look? (Please choose language at right corner on the top)

http://httpd.cpu.edu.hk/

I tried two different plug-ins for language switching, but no change on “Featured Slider”.

And other question, I found that “Homepage Featured content Options” is no option for language switching. Would you mind take some change for it?

Thank you so much!!

@Victor: In Catch Everest Free version, we have featured post slider. Check out the theme instruction at http://catchthemes.com/theme-instructions/catch-everest/ and check out “How to Add Featured Post Slider?”

[cpuss]

Hi,
Could you clarify that. I am trying to use free version of Catch Everest but I couldn’t manage to change the featured post slides as well. http://www.svision.fi/wp. Do you mean that in order to do so I have to buy the pro version? Is there a way to get ride of the Everest and Nepal images?
Regards,
Victor Silveria

@avatar789: Look at your slider. It is working fine. This show it has got plugin issues. Now you can activate plugin one by one and check in which plugin gave you the issue and then you can just remove that plugin.

[Sakin]

@abtaxlaw: Sorry there is no option to add featured video instead of featured slider. So, to edit that you need to build child theme. You can check the function catchbox_slider_display()

@lizzy39: Cheers 🙂
