@PierreLuc3E: Modifying Catch Everest Free Theme. But it depends on how you have used Catch Everest in your Theme.
1 – remove the grey band above the Header
— You can add the following css in “Appearance => Theme Options => Custom CSS” box.
.site { margin-top: 0; }
2 – reduce the white space before and after the Logo
— You can add the following css in “Appearance => Theme Options => Custom CSS” box.

#site-logo { padding-top: 0; }
#hgroup-wrap { padding-bottom: 0; }

3 – reduce the white space before and after the Featured Post Slider
— For this I need your site URL
4 – reduce the white space before and after the Homepage Headline
— You can add the following css in “Appearance => Theme Options => Custom CSS” box.
#homepage-message { margin-top: 0; }

Your child theme sytle.css will be as following

@Kayman Engineering:
1. How can I change the name of the “Home” button in the menu bar?
— You can set your own custom menu from “Appearance => Menu”. You can change the menu name from the labels of the items. See more info about menu at http://en.support.wordpress.com/menus/

2. Can I change the bag ground color for only the “home” button? I would like the menu bar to black, and the home button to in a red color. Both with a white front.
— Send me the screenshot of the menu design and send me your site URL. Then I can send you the custom css

3. I use a static front page. Can I place my page text so the text is right under the slider, but above the featured Content?
— For this you need to build child theme and edit the positions from your child theme functions.php action hooks. So, you might need to hire developer for this.

@lavana24: You don’t need to remove it. You can just go to “Appearance => Theme Options => Featured Slider => Slider Options”. Then in Enable Slider select Disable. This will remove your slider js completely.

[Sakin]

@Sarah Althaus: If you don’t want image to be cut of, then you can upgrade to pro version and use the Featured Image Slider. Where you can upload the image of any size.

But for which area to cut of in the image. You can use the plugin such as http://wordpress.org/plugins/post-thumbnail-editor/

Thank you! I haven’t had time to adjust sizes yet, but I will let you know if any issue persists. Thanks for a great, sleek, template design! I love it!

@MichelB: Well I don’t have Android device to test it. So, can you send me the screenshot and the device resolution.

I also have found issue with your slider, it’s over the menu. So, add the following css in “Apearance => Theme Options => Custom CSS” box.
#branding { z-index: 10; }

Further, I see that you haven’t added Featured Image in your posts.

[Sakin]

@Lynzee: You are having problem with the menu as your slider image is very small. Just upload the larger images and it will solve your issues.

[taranlewis]

For some reason that code didn’t work. Likely because of something I messed up! 😉

So, I see how to put the featured post slider on each page, but what if I wanted to put a different featured post slider on each page? is that possible? thanks again for great support on this!

[Sakin]

@danielvercaemst:
1. I would like to limit its display to homepage.
— Sorry I don’t understand what you are trying to do it. Can you explain it.

2. I wood like to use a square picture for the post in listing pages, but if i do that, the slide is to small and in a bad size..
Can you tell me what i’m doing bad ?
— You can see the image sizes in http://catchthemes.com/theme-instructions/simple-catch-pro/
If you are having trouble with sizes then you can use Featured Image Slider, where you can upload image of any size, and link to any url. So, you have different image slide and separate featured post image.

That solved the problem.

Thank you Sakin.

@taranlewis: Yes it is not recommended at all to customize any core theme files such as style.css, functions.php and all. As when you update the theme, these files will get reverted back and all your customization will be overwritten.

Then best way to add new css is either though “Appearance => Theme Options => Custom CSS” box or through build child theme.

Since you have customize the site. It has become difficult for me to track back the css for changes. Can you try adding the following CSS in “Appearance => Theme Options => Custom CSS” box to remove the padding top in the page main wrap.
.page #main { padding-top: 0; }

To add featured post slider in all pages, you can go to “Appearance => Theme Options => Featured Post Slider => Slider Options” in your WordPress Dashboard. Then you can check “Entire Site” and click on save.

[Sakin]

@rdorrego: You can delete the old css that I gave you and add the following css.

#branding { z-index: 25; }
#nav-slider .nav-previous, #nav-slider .nav-next { z-index: 20; }

[rdorrego]

Sakin,

The featured image in the slider is now behind the drop down menu selections, however the directional, left and right, buttons are still in the forefront affecting the selection.

Thank you again,

[taranlewis]

The more I think about the more I’d just like to utilize the featured post slider on every page instead of the slider plugin that I installed….

[rdorrego]

The fix worked!

Thank you for your help.

-Rick

[Sakin]

@rdorrego: Just add the following CSS in “Appearance => Theme Options => Custom CSS” box.
#branding { z-index: 10; }

[Sakin]

nice 🙂

@adasprom: Yes, we have found issue in Featured Header Image options, which is schedule to be fixed in version 1.4. For now you can add above css or you can go to your file catcheverest-functions.php and in line no 358 replace the following code

elseif ( $enableheaderimage == 'allpage' || ( $enableheaderimage == 'homepage' && ( ( is_front_page() || ( is_home() && $page_for_posts != $page_id ) ) && $enableslider == 'enable-slider-homepage' ) ) ) {
    catcheverest_featured_image();
}

With

elseif ( $enableheaderimage == 'allpage' || ( $enableheaderimage == 'homepage' && ( is_front_page() || ( is_home() && $page_for_posts != $page_id ) ) ) ) {
    catcheverest_featured_image();
}

[adasprom]

Thankyou for your reply. Unfortunately this did not work. I was talking about the Enable Featured Header Image option. I currently have it set on ‘Homepage’ which I thought would of meant the header image appears on the homepage. When a user selects the About Us menu item for example. It removes the header image and only displays the feature slider. I have another WordPress site with an earlier version of the theme that I use as a test site, it’s Version 1.2.2, and this function works well. I’m currently running Version 1.3 of your theme.
Your assistance would be appreciated, thankyou.
