Hi Sakin,

I’ve gone through these forums and was able to find an answer for all of my other questions; thank you for offering such great support!

The one question that I still cannot get an answer for:

The featured image for all Pages and Posts has a permalink to the page you are already on, making it redundant and useless. Is there a way to remove the link once you’re on the page?

An example on my site is:

Thank you for your help.

Peace and love,

Hi @Mandala528,
To remove the link, you need to do a bit of customization using child theme. Please follow following steps:
1. Create A Child Theme for Adventurous Pro. Details for child theme is here
2. In your child theme’s functions.php add following code:

/**
 * Template for overriding parent function for Featured Image in Content
 */
function adventurous_content_image() {
	global $post, $wp_query;
	
	// Get Page ID outside Loop
	$page_id = $wp_query->get_queried_object_id();
	
	if( $post) {
 		if ( is_attachment() ) { 
			$parent = $post->post_parent;
			$individual_featured_image = get_post_meta( $parent,'adventurous-featured-image', true );
		} else {
			$individual_featured_image = get_post_meta( $page_id,'adventurous-featured-image', true ); 
		}
	}

	if( empty( $individual_featured_image ) || ( !is_page() && !is_single() ) ) {
		$individual_featured_image='default';
	}
	
	// Getting data from Theme Options
	global $adventurous_options_settings;
   	$options = $adventurous_options_settings;
	
	$featured_image = $options['featured_image'];
		
	if ( ( $individual_featured_image == 'disable' || '' == get_the_post_thumbnail() || ( $individual_featured_image=='default' && $featured_image == 'disable') ) ) {
		return false;
	}
	else { ?>
		<figure class="featured-image">
           <?php 
			if ( ( is_front_page() && $featured_image == 'featured' ) ||  $individual_featured_image == 'featured' || ( $individual_featured_image=='default' && $featured_image == 'featured' ) ) {
                 the_post_thumbnail( 'featured' );
            }	
			elseif ( ( is_front_page() && $featured_image == 'slider' ) || $individual_featured_image == 'slider' || ( $individual_featured_image=='default' && $featured_image == 'slider' ) ) {
				the_post_thumbnail( 'slider' );
			}
			else {
				the_post_thumbnail( 'full' );
			} 
			?>
        </figure>
   	<?php
	}
}

Thats it. Let me know if this solves your issue or not.

i would also like to know how to remove links from the slider. any tips on what exactly i would be customizing with the simplecatch_sliders() function? here it is below (i found the following code in the simplecatch_functions.php file)

/**
 * This function to display featured posts on homepage header
 *
 * @get the data value from theme options
 * @displays on the homepage header
 *
 * @useage Featured Image, Title and Content of Post
 *
 * @uses set_transient and delete_transient
 */
function simplecatch_sliders() {
	global $post;
	//delete_transient( 'simplecatch_sliders' );

	global $simplecatch_options_settings;
    $options = $simplecatch_options_settings;

	$postperpage = $options[ 'slider_qty' ];

	if( ( !$simplecatch_sliders = get_transient( 'simplecatch_sliders' ) ) && !empty( $options[ 'featured_slider' ] ) ) {
		echo '<!-- refreshing cache -->';

		$simplecatch_sliders = '
		<div class="featured-slider">';
			$get_featured_posts = new WP_Query( array(
				'posts_per_page' => $postperpage,
				'post__in'		 => $options[ 'featured_slider' ],
				'orderby' 		 => 'post__in',
				'ignore_sticky_posts' => 1 // ignore sticky posts
			));
			$i=0; while ( $get_featured_posts->have_posts()) : $get_featured_posts->the_post(); $i++;
				$title_attribute = apply_filters( 'the_title', get_the_title( $post->ID ) );
				$excerpt = get_the_excerpt();
				if ( $i == 1 ) { $classes = "slides displayblock"; } else { $classes = "slides displaynone"; }
				$simplecatch_sliders .= '
				<div class="'.$classes.'">
					<div class="featured">
						<div class="slide-image">';
							if( has_post_thumbnail() ) {

								$simplecatch_sliders .= '<a href="' . get_permalink() . '" title="Permalink to '.the_title('','',false).'">';

								if( $options[ 'remove_noise_effect' ] == "0" ) {
									$simplecatch_sliders .= '<span class="img-effect pngfix"></span>';
								}

								$simplecatch_sliders .= get_the_post_thumbnail( $post->ID, 'slider', array( 'title' => esc_attr( $title_attribute ), 'alt' => esc_attr( $title_attribute ), 'class'	=> 'pngfix' ) ).'</a>';
							}
							else {
								$simplecatch_sliders .= '<span class="img-effect pngfix"></span>';
							}
							$simplecatch_sliders .= '
						</div> <!-- .slide-image -->
					</div> <!-- .featured -->
					<div class="featured-text">';
						if( $excerpt !='') {
							$simplecatch_sliders .= the_title( '<span>','</span>', false ).': '.$excerpt;
						}
						$simplecatch_sliders .= '
					</div><!-- .featured-text -->
				</div> <!-- .slides -->';
			endwhile; wp_reset_query();
		$simplecatch_sliders .= '
		</div> <!-- .featured-slider -->
			<div id="controllers">
			</div><!-- #controllers -->';

	set_transient( 'simplecatch_sliders', $simplecatch_sliders, 86940 );
	}
	echo $simplecatch_sliders;
} // simplecatch_sliders

Hi @kate-upton,

To remove the permalinks from featured post slider, please follow following steps::
1. Create A Child Theme for Simple Catch Theme. Details for child theme is here
2. In your child theme’s functions.php add the function given here: http://pastebin.com/PPVuyLz0
* It is the same function that you have given, just removed the links. Check line 35 in new code for difference.

Let me know how it goes.

Quick Note: For Future references, the reply will be much quicker if you post your issue in a separate post under your theme. This post is for users that use Adventurous Pro theme

[kate-upton]

When you select the image you want, before setting it as ‘featured image’, make sure you’re changing the link URL to none. Otherwise just delete the a tags around the .

Or are you using a php include in your theme to put the featured image there?
