    Is there an easy way to suppress the text box in the featured slider so that it is just a plain slider? Does the pro version have more control over that feature?

    Hello @Alan,
    You can use the following css as a quick solution. Kindly ping us if it does not help.

    .featured-text {
        display: none;
    }

    Thanks!

    @Alan: To hide the text from the slider, you can add the following css in “Appearance => Customize => Theme Options => Custom CSS Options”
    #feature-slider .entry-container { display: none; }

    Yes, pro version has more advance options for slider. Like you have option to select “Featured Image Slider”, where you can control all like image, title, content, link all are optional add it your own way. For more about pro version, you can refer to theme instructions page at http://catchthemes.com/theme-instructions/catch-responsive-pro/

    One more question. Is there a way to just have the slider show a set of images versus being tied to a featured page image (and the link to that page)? I read the changes in the Pro version for the slider and did not see anything that looked like that feature. My planned site is not a blog site so featured content is not that much of a priority.

    @Alan: Yes, pro version that option. For that you need to use “Featured Image Slider”. Read more about it at http://catchthemes.com/theme-instructions/catch-responsive-pro/#enable-featured-image-slider

    I understand that feature but is there a way to create a set of images like the header image option that will play in a slider format but not be tied to a particular page or featured image on a page? I.E., just a plain slider displaying a set of images.

    Here’s a link to the site I’m testing http://sanjuansites.biz/msjs. We are attempting to replace/augment our full production site http://sanjuansailing.com with a mobile version and would like to retain a similar look and feel that we currently have.

    In the three boxes at the bottom we would like to control the text in the boxes versus having an excerpt of the target page.

    Before I a) purchase the pro version and b) before I start digging into the code I just wanted to know what was possible.

    Thanks.

    @Alan: Yes, in Pro version you can select “Featured Image Slider” instead of “Featured Page Slider”.

    In Featured image slider, you need to upload image directly in the slider option and it is not tied to any page/post. So, you can option to link or not. If you want to link then you need to add link manually. If not then you can leave link option empty.

    Thanks. That answered my question. I’ll go ahead and purchase the theme and probably have more questions. Great support.

    I purchased the Pro version and it does all you said and more. Great job. Just curious, do you have an enhancements “wish list” section? I have a few now and I’m sure more will follow as I explore what this will do. I have also been able to make a couple of mods using the text widget and external CSS features but it is not perfect. If you look at my prototype site http://sanjuansites.biz/msjs you will see that I added a phone number and email address at the top that I included in the Header Right widget. Basic contact information would be a nice addition to the custom widgets for the theme in the future because it could be added anywhere. An alternative would be a telephone “social” icon (other than Skype) although those icons are not that intuitive. Having the number out in the open works nicely on a mobile device.

    @Alan: For additional social icons, you can add in your own custom images from “Appearance => Customize => Social Links => Custom Social Links”.

    Yes, sure we can add in telephone, website and others in social icons. We get icons from http://genericons.com/. Will add this in next version update.

    About the Contact Information widgets, we will check that out.

    About the Wish list, we don’t have in this site. We are update in new design soon. We are re-designing and re-branding it. So, there we will add wish list as well.

    Thanks for your feedback.
