Is there any way that the Featured Slider – has the ability to Randomly select from the pool of images and use these to create the Featured Slider Option. Instead of using the predefined number of slides?

@konmanos: Hello there,
I will discuss the possibility of adding that option in the theme with our development team and will update you on this soon.

To randomize slider images.
Go to => Appearance => Customize => Featured Slider => Slider Options => Check to Randomize Slider Image and Publish.

Let me know if this works out!

Skandha, Sorry for the late reply, your emails were being sent to my spam box.
I have tried to update the Theme and it was unsuccessful.
Additionally, Auto updates do not work on this theme?
Please assist?

See attached. Is it because I have not kept up with the incremental updates?
I am currently on version 2.7 of Everest Pro
The latest version has been shown as 4.2, and to see more details on the 4.2 version it sends me to

@konmanos: Hello there,
Since you are using an older version of the theme you will need to update the theme manually this time. You will need to download the theme zip folder from your Catch Themes My Account page https://catchthemes.com/my-account/.

Then,
Go to => Appearance => Themes => Upload Theme => Browse and Select the theme and Install.

Let me know if you are still having issues updating the theme.
Kind Regards,

@konmanos: Hello there,
Don’t you find this option at your end?
Go to => Appearance => Customize => Featured Slider => Slider Options => Check to Randomize Slider Image and Publish.

Skandha, No i do not see that option at all.

The options I see are:

Enable Slider
Number of Slides
Transition Effect
Transition delay
Transition Length
Select Slider TYpe

Then you have the Slide #
