Hello,
I was building my website using the free Clean Business theme, but found I really wanted to have more control over my fonts, colors, and where my widgets appear, so I purchased the PRO version. After doing so, the Feature Slider stopped working. I had it set on my homepage to slide through the different pages on my website, and it was all working fine in the free version, but as soon as I went with the pro version, the area where the featured pictures should be displayed was just black – no picture, no text, no button. I tried re-adding the featured images on my pages, but that didn’t work. If I switch back to the free version, it’s all there and working fine. Please help!

Also, I really really really dislike the red color that was the default hover and button color on the Clean Business theme. This is one of the reasons I went with the pro version. I have changed that color in all of the color option areas and find that it is still the hover color on the main menu and on the social media icons.

My website’s not live yet, but you can look at what I have here.

I am not a programmer or overly technical person, but I’m pretty good at figuring things out. In other words, please answer in layman’s terms as much as possible. Thank you.

@maryw2wdance-com: Please download the pro theme again and make a fresh installation of theme and check if this issue persists.

Let me know if the issue persists.

The problem persists. I changed backed to the free version, deleted the pro version, downloaded the pro version again, installed it again, and then changed my theme back to the pro version. The feature slider area is still black and the hover color is still red on the main menu and the social icons.

Oddly enough, if I switch to the Demo Feature Slider, that works. It’s when I set it to Feature Page Slider, so that it will use my pages and the featured image in each page that it does not work.

I found a work around for the Feature Slider issue I’m having. It appears that it is specific to using Feature Page Slider. I have set it up using Featured Image Slider instead of pages, and that appears to work. But it also means that when I change to my real URL, I’ll need to go in and update all the links.

Update – I needed to get my website up and running, so it is up using the workaround I described in the previous post. New URL is w2wdance.com

@maryw2wdance-com: The option to change menu hover color and social icon hover color is not available in the Color Options. For that
Go to => Appearance => Customize => Additional CSS and add the following CSS Code.

#mainnav ul li a:hover {
   color:green;
}

To change hover color of social icons

.widget_clean_business_social_icons a:hover {
    background:green;
    border-color:green;
}

Replace the text “green” with the color of your choice.

The Feature Slider using Feature Pages seems to have an issue. I will look into the issue and let you know when the issue is resolved.

Let me know if the CSS Code works out.

The css code fixed my colors. Can you tell me how to change the color on the SUBSCRIBE button on the Email Subscription widget?

Also, I see you’ve posted an update to the theme and my feature slide problem was one of the bug fixes. When I try to update, however, I receive an error that says “An error occurred while updating Clean Business Pro: Update package not available.”

Thanks!

You cannot update pro themes like the way you update free themes.You’ll need to first download the theme from https://catchthemes.com/my-account/page. Then install Catch Web Tools plugin and activate Catch Updater Module. https://wordpress.org/plugins/catch-web-tools/
Please check the tutorial video in the link below:

Let me know if this solves your issue.
