I would like to put header image only in Top page. How should I change it? and also I want to use jquery slider so I want to know how I add other js.
Thank you.

@kazcchi: Sorry I don’t understand it properly what do you mean my Top Page. Can you explain in reference with your site URL.

About the slider, you can activate Featured Page Slider which is jquery cycle slider only. If you are trying to add in different slider then you need to build child theme and add in. For child theme, check out http://catchthemes.com/blog/create-child-theme-wordpress/

Thank you for your reply.
I’d like to remove the header image from other pages. I need the header image only in index page.

about the slider, thank you for giving me the information about child theme. I will try it.

@kazcchi: Sorry this option is there only in pro version. In free version, you need to build child theme and modify the code. You need to copy function catchevolution_featured_header() in your child theme functions.php file and then add in !is_front_page() condition and return false.

Hi
I’m a 76 year old newbie and I’ve hit a problem that has got me at my wits end. When I built my site http://www.weightlossthehealthyway.com I opted for the catch Evolution theme which had ‘sliding’ header images.
The header images alternated between what appeared to be a Buddhist monk at his studies at the end of a long passage, in a kind of Tibetan looking monastery; and, a bunch of white orchids. The two images alternated, they kind of ‘merdged’ with each other then held position for a few seconds before repeating the sequence.
So, that’s my theme; and, here’s my problem:-) The orchids image has disappeared and the header is now just a static Buddhist monk. If anyone could tell me how to get back to the two images alternating with each other, I’d be really, really, grateful!

Best

@Kingfisher: I see that you are directly edited files inside core theme directory catch-evolution folder. All the files edits will be reverted back to original when you update or upgrade the theme. So, if you want to edit core theme files then you need to build child theme and edit it. For child theme, check out http://catchthemes.com/blog/create-child-theme-wordpress/

About the Header Image, you can add that from “Appearance => Header”, then upload then images as per your need and to random it, you can select Randomized and save & publish it.

Hi Sakin
Sorry about the delay in replying, I’ve just got back from a holiday. I have tried to follow your instructions: “”About the Header Image, you can add that from “Appearance => Header”, then upload then images as per your need and to random it, you can select Randomized and save & publish it.””

However,, that doesn’t seem to solve the problem, I am still seeing a static image of the monk in the monastery. What would you suggest I do to try and cure this problem?

Best wishes

@Kingfisher: Can you post in your site URL? As when I check in our server, it’s working fine. I just uploaded about 5 images and then click on “Random uploaded headers”

Hi Sakin
I really appreciate your prompt response to my request for help. The URL of my site is http://www.weightlossthehealthyway.com and the theme is catch Evolution. I was in hospital to have my appendix removed a few week ago; and, when I got back home, I still was not thinking clearly, and i must have altered the settings on my site somehow. So, I would like to say thank you again, in advance, for your help with this problem.

Best wishes

@Kingfisher: Sorry to header that. I hope you are recovering fast.

Ok now I see that you are not taking about the header image but about the Featured slider. I see that you have removed the footer which is causing issue. The slider script will run in the footer and you have removed it. That is the reason it’s not sliding. So, please put it back and it will slide it.

Hi again Sakin
Thanks for your reply, you said ” I see that you have removed the footer which is causing issue. The slider script will run in the footer and you have removed it. That is the reason it’s not sliding. So, please put it back and it will slide it.”

However, I’m a 76 year old newbie , and I haven’t got a clue how to do this. Could you give me instructions, in ‘idiot proof words’ exactly what I have to do in order to solve this problem please?

The only thing I altered on the theme was to remove the statue of Buddha.
The two header images were still ‘sliding’ fine with each other,so the removal
of the Buddha staue was not responsible for the header images to stop sliding.

Best wishes
Ian

@Kingfisher: Can you go to footer.php file in your theme catch-evolution theme directory. It need to be same as https://themes.trac.wordpress.org/browser/catch-evolution/2.4.1/footer.php

[Kingfisher]

Hi Sakin
Thanks for your message, I clicked on the link you sent me, and it took me to a page called footer.php in catch evolution. I then saw a lot of html, and it scared the sh*t out of me, because I haven’t got a clue about html.

Sorry to bother you again; but, once i get to that page, what do I do I actually have to do, in order to get my header images back to where they were again?

Best wishes
Ian

@Kingfisher: Your header is hidden by the following css in “Appearance => Theme Options => Custom CSS” box. Remove it and you will see the header.
#branding { display: none; }

That footer.php should be same as original footer.php for slider to work. You shouldn’t change any core theme files inside catch-evolution theme. I see that you have changed footer.php file, that is why I am telling you to revert back or original.
