@salen555: Yes, in Pro version you can use Featured Image Slider and then don’t add in link. So, there will be slider image without link.
@Kavitha: Full Frame Free theme only supports “Featured Page Slider”, See this theme instructions at http://catchthemes.com/theme-instructions/full-frame/#featured-slider . So, you need to create page and add featured image on those pages. After that you can select page. But if you want to use Featured Post Slider then you need to upgrade to pro version.
@fumitoshi: Yes, you can add your own image and text without any page or post in Pro version. You will can use “Featured Image Slider” and “Featured Image Content”. For more details, check out theme instructions page of pro version at http://catchthemes.com/theme-instructions/full-frame-pro/
Hi,
I have just created my blog with full frame as theme and I really like its full frame feature. but I am not able to add featured slider with my posts. In my featured slide type, I can only see demo slider and featured page slider. But I am not able to see “featured post slider” to enable it and set my post ids as written in the instructions. i already have two posts with featured images in it.
Can you pls help?
if I buy the professional version of this theme will the slider and Featured Content optiosn change? I mean will I be able to set my text and images as in the demo mode without using featured page content?
@Irina: Just add the following css in “Appearance => Theme Options => Custom CSS” box:
#slider-wrap .featured-text { display: none; }
@kat22: Sorry, Catch Everest Free theme only have option to use Featured Post Slider, which is created to highlight your post and will link only to your post.
So, the best option at this stage will be to upgrade to Pro version where you have option to use Featured Image Slider, in which you have option to upload your image and link to any URL you like.
But if you don’t like to upgrade then you can redirect post to that site.
Note: there are lot of other additional features that you will get in Pro version. You can check out the list from http://catchthemes.com/theme-instructions/catch-everest-pro/
@brookmatthiesen:
1 & 2) Yes, you are not supposed to edit/add files inside catch-responsive theme directory. As it will be reverted back to original when you update or upgrade the theme. If you want to change any core functions, then you need to build child theme and edit it in your child theme functions.

Hi, in the Video “How to create featured Post slider” there is an option to disable the text for the post slider in the Slider Option. I don’t have that option in my theme. How can I stop the text being displayed in the slider? My webpage is: http://www.aussiebuschfunk.net.
Thanks for the help,
Irina
I’m using the free version of Catch Responsive. I’ve got a few questions for you:
1) How do I change the images on the featured slider on the homepage (the top primary images) options without using the featured page slider option? So basically, I don’t want my images duplicated on the featured slider at the top of the page as the same ones as the “featured page image” beneath it. I’ve tried changing the top images in the demo featured slider and replacing it with other images but named the same. It works but something tells me that’s not how it’s intended to be used, especially in the case of an update where my images would be wiped out.
2) Along the lines as the above question, if I am supposed to use the Demo Featured Slider option and just replace the images but use the same image name…how do I get the carousel to show more than 2 pictures?
3) Different topic: How can I get a page to not show up in the menu but still allow it to be selected for the featured content section on the homepage? I can’t currently find an option to not show a page in the menu structure.
4) Different topic: How can I create a submission form with this theme?
5) Different topic: How do I remove the search bar from the top of the homepage?
6) Different topic: I’d like to not have the social media icons at the top of the page but instead in a widget on the right sidebar. But, when I enter the information into the social links section, it automatically adds them to the top of the page and then pulls that information for the widget. How can I use the social links information for the widget without having them show up on the top of the page?
Sorry for all the random topic changes. Thanks in advance for your assistance.
@salen555: I guess you are talking about Featured Post Slider. To link to page, you need to use Featured Page Slider, which is there only in Adventurous Pro theme. also to change the slider image, the best option is to use Featured Image Slider, which allows you to upload image on your own choice. It will load image whatever you have uploaded. See this for image slider settings, http://catchthemes.com/blog/videos-blog/video-series-adding-featured-image-slider/
So, best option is to upgrade to Pro version. You can see the list of additional featured that you will get in pro version at http://catchthemes.com/theme-instructions/adventurous-pro/
For mobile device settings, can you post in your site URL and let me know what you want to change to. Maybe share screenshot of what you want.
@Olivia: Can you go to your slider settings at “Appearance => Customize => Featured Slider Options” and check “No of Slides”. Maybe you have set there as 16.
Also another question- is there an option to change the SIZE of the featured image slider text or perhaps to change HOW TRANSPARENT it is? Website is http://www.craftmaxfl.com and I am using Catch Responsive Pro Theme.
Hello, I am using Catch Responsive Pro Theme. I have 8 Featured Image sliders. For some reasons, the actual slider is showing 16 bullet points and not 8. When I click on the blank bullet points that have no pictures, it goes to the blank site. The site is http://www.craftmaxfl.com Any suggestions on how I can change this?
@Camila: If you are using Full Frame Pro theme, then go to “Appearance => Customize => Featured Slider Options => Featured Slider Type” and then select “Featured Image Slider” and then just upload image and link as per your need. Don’t type in title and content. So, it will only show image.
But if you still want to use other slider type and hide it then you can add the following css in “Appearance => Customize => Theme Options => Custom CSS Options” box to hide it:
#feature-slider .entry-container { display: none; }
I reinstalled all – template, wpml and wordpress – all works now except of one thing – featured slider resets each time I am playing with featured content.
nother thing – how would I translate featured content? I made all other things to be translated automatically, bt this one even manually – no chance?
@Phinric: Which theme are you using it? Please post in your site URL so that I can check in better. I assume that you are using Catch Everest Free theme as you have posted in here. Catch Everest theme uses Featured Post Slider, for that you can check this screencast at http://catchthemes.com/blog/videos-blog/video-series-adding-featured-post-slider/
For more, you can check out theme instructions page at http://catchthemes.com/theme-instructions/catch-everest/
But if you want featured image slider, then you can upgrade to Pro version. Also you will get additional features which is listed in http://catchthemes.com/theme-instructions/catch-everest-pro/.
Hello,
I have a question regarding the previous-slide and next-slide button for the featured slider on the home page. For most of the internet browsers, I have a green arrow and a transparant background. However, in Internet Explorer the background is white.
Do you have any suggestions where I can change this?

Thanks for your support!

@Kingfisher: Sorry to header that. I hope you are recovering fast.
Ok now I see that you are not taking about the header image but about the Featured slider. I see that you have removed the footer which is causing issue. The slider script will run in the footer and you have removed it. That is the reason it’s not sliding. So, please put it back and it will slide it.
@mosign: Did you try the code that I send you on http://catchthemes.com/support-forum/topic/menu-at-bottom-of-slider-featured-image/. When I add this code in our server child theme. Menu is showing below the slider.
// Unhook default Catch Responsive functions
function unhook_catchresponsive_functions() {
remove_action( 'catchresponsive_after_header', 'catchresponsive_primary_menu', 20 );
}
add_action( 'init', 'unhook_catchresponsive_functions' );
//Adding menu after slider
add_action( 'catchresponsive_before_content', 'catchresponsive_primary_menu', 20 );
If this is not working in your site then, can you send me the code that you have in your child theme functions.php file. Also try increasing the value of add_action from 20 to like 40 and so on. So, you replace the code:
//Adding menu after slider
add_action( 'catchresponsive_before_content', 'catchresponsive_primary_menu', 20 );
with 40 like this:
//Adding menu after slider
add_action( 'catchresponsive_before_content', 'catchresponsive_primary_menu', 40 );
