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!

@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.

@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; }

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.

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.

@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();
}

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.

I think I just solved it by changing to “Featured Image Slider” and leaving the link field blank. Not sure why I never tried that before, as I have tried many things 🙂

@Oceani5: See the screenshot of Featured Slider options in Catch Everest Pro http://pinterest.com/pin/548594798329509357/

I just cannot make it work to remove the “noisy” background – what do I do wrong:

And one more thing – is it possible to avoid having text under the featured slider?

Thanks,
Marianne

@Oceani5: Sorry you cannot add page in Catch Everest Free Theme as it only have Featured Post Slider. To add page, you need to upgrade to Pro version and select Featured Page Slider. See more about Catch Everest Pro at http://catchthemes.com/theme-instructions/catch-everest-pro/

[Sakin]

@Sarah Althaus: You site is Under Construction so I cannot check in. But I guess you are using Simple Catch Free theme as you have posted your question in Simple Catch Free theme.

For Simple Catch Free theme featured post slider, the perfect image will be Width: 976px and Height: 313px . You can see it is clearly instructed at http://catchthemes.com/theme-instructions/simple-catch/

@aaronborrego: You can change the color code in following css and add it in “Appearance => Theme Options => Custom CSS” box.
.featured-slider .slides { background-color: #000; }

[aaronborrego]

Great, thanks! Also, I am trying to change the color behind the slider on the home page. I tried using the code you put up in your other post, but no luck. Any suggestions?

[Sakin]

@elli: I am bit confused about which like you are talking about. You should have posted your site URL. I hope you mean to remove the line. If that is the case then you can add the following css in “Appearance => Theme Options => Custom CSS” box.
#header { border: none; }

You can remove the dot background effect in the slider from “Appearance => Theme Options => Featured Post Slider => Slider Effect Options”. You can check “Disable Slider Background Effect” and save it.
