    Hi, I’m creating my webpage using Catch Everest Pro. I would like to use individual header images (slider size, I’m currently sizing them at 1140 x 450) and tying them to specific pages. So, each page would have its own header, which will also be its “featured image” My problem is as follows: When I select Customize/Header Image/Enable Featured Header Image (Entire Site, Page/Post Featured Image), Page/Post Featured Image Size (Slider Image), Featured Header Image Position (After Menu) – I am getting the nice wide slider-sized image across the top of each page as I want BUT it repeats in a rectangular cropped version (NOT created by me) right under the header image. How do I make sure the image is not duplicated on each page like that? Also, on the homepage I only want the slider, no header image above it. My slider will have several images, some with feature content on them. Any suggestions on how to tackle these problems? I am not a pro.

    @kterra: Thank you for using Catch Everest Pro theme. If you want to have individual header image for your different pages and posts, go to Dashboard=> Appearance=> Header Image and select Entire Site, Page/Post Featured Image in
    Enable Featured Header Image option. Choosing this option will set featured image as the page’s header image if exists if not, it uses default header image.
    To Enable Slider on Home page only, go to Dashboard=> Appearance=> Featured Slider=> Slider Options and select Homepage/Frontpage in Enable Slider option.
    For hiding header image in homepage, go to Dashboard=> Appearance=> Customize=> Theme Options=> Custom CSS box and add the following CSS:

    /* Hides header image from homepage */
    .home #header-image {
    	display: none;
    }

    Let me know if any problem.
    Note: For Header Image, you can use image of your desired size.

    Regards,
    Mahesh

    Hi Mahesh,
    Thank you very much for your quick response! Using the CSS you provided, the problem with the header image on the Homepage was solved!
    However, I was following your directions for setting individual headers on different pages (as it turns out, I had been doing it exactly as you advised) but the problem still persists–under the featured header image on each page I am getting the same featured image repeated but cropped–what I would like to achieve is header image as featured image only–and then text, galleries afterwards. Here’re examples of three pages that I have worked on — maybe this will help to see the problem

    So, basically, I’d like the header image (slider size) as I have now on the pages listed above, but then text directly after that so that the image is not repeated. Thank you!

    @kterra: Okay, I now understand the problem. There is a setting to disable the repeated image. Go to Dashboard=> Appearance=> Customize=> Theme Options=> Content Featured Image Option and select Disable Image in Check to Disable Header Right Section option.
    Let me know if any problem.

    THANK YOU SO MUCH! That worked! May I ask a question on another topic here? I really hate the fonts but these are the only ones that work for my menu (all other choices seem to make the menu run over). Is there a way to use a font that’s not all caps? Before this I used the Catch Base theme and I actually liked the font they had for the menu and it worked for my menu. (it was not all caps and it was a nice font, whatever it was) Anyway to go back to that font? Thank you so much,
    Kristina

    @kteraa: Add the following CSS in you Custom CSS box:

    #header-menu ul.menu a, 
    #footer-menu ul.menu a {
        text-transform: none;
    }

    Fantastic! Thank you very much Mahesh! I have two other issues that came up:
    One: I would like to have our logo to the left of the site name that appears atop of every page. Somehow I cannot figure out how to do that. I’d like it to be as tall as the capital letters.
    Two: Is it possible to insert hyperlinks to a page on my website off a picture in a gallery AND/OR do the same with the caption under it? The only way I was able to do that is to insert pictures individually, but even then I think the pictures take you to a larger version (the original media) of themselves. In some cases, that is fantastic, but in others, I’d like to be able to link the pictures to specific pages. Also, in some cases I will want the picture to be linked to one page, and the caption to another. Many thanks!

    @kterra:
    One: Please put a logo and let me know, so I can help your further on this.
    Two: For linking image to different url, this can be done to image by default in WordPress. In Add/Edit post/page click Add Media then select any image, then you can put link in Attachment Display Settings. But For gallery, you’ll need plugins to do so.

    Thank you very much Mahesh. I am going to think some more about the logo, since I can’t do it myself…I wanted to see if it looked good or not, and don’t really want you to do all the work only to then have to undo it. Thank you for offering, though! I will fiddle with the pictures some more, thank you for the link. One more question–is it possible to insert tables? What I want is a table that has four columns. The first column has two rows (big ones), the second column has four rows (basically the rows split in half in the second column), the third column has eight rows (same thing), and the fourth column has 16 rows. I will be putting pictures inside of the individual cells with captions underneath. Not all cells will have pictures but all will have captions. Both captions and pictures will be hyperlinked but to different things. I know FrontPage was a crappy program but boy was it easy to use (used it since 2000 but now have to start from scratch with learning and rebuild the website entirely).. I am just learning this thank you for all your help.

    @kterra: Thank you for your considerations. Yes you can insert table in the content and it can be managed through HTML and CSS as you want to. Let me know if you want any help.
