I upgraded (finally) to the pro version of Catch Kathmandu and all of my front images are not working. I had a featured slider for the home page…gone. It seems the dashboard theme options have changed. I no longer have the separate area for managing the services. I cannot get the ad for the product to go away. When I set the delete ad banners and button, they come back to the original ads, even after I save the changes. When I try to add some images for the scrolling banner, it will not save. I have read the instructions but the don’t help with this issue. The “Always Set the Featured Images” the image sizes are the same but the location of the controls are different. I need a tip to remove the “Mountains” from the home page. Also the Featured widgets (4) will not let me reset to my prior options. This is a history site, so no urgent needs. Fans can read around the Catch ads and see the content…menus work and slides work. What am I missing? site is Camptimlo.org…Dr Dan

@ddk: Thank you for upgrading to Pro version. The upgrade should have automatically migrated all the settings from Free to Pro unless you are using child theme. So, it seems most of the setting are changed to defaults (Slider, Promotion Headline, Featured Content).
For these options, please use Customizer (Dashboard=> Appearance=> Customize) instead Theme Options. For slider, go to Dashboard=> Appearance=> Customize=> Featured Slider=> Slider Options.
For disabling Promotion headline (Ads), go to Dashboard=> Appearance=> Customize=> Theme Options=> Promotion Headline and select Disable in
Enable Promotion Headline on drop-down option.
And removing/modifying Featured Content (mountain image), go to Dashboard=> Appearance=> Customize=> Theme Options=> Homepage Featured Content and select Disable in Enable Content drop-down option.
Hope this helps. Please follow along the theme instruction : https://catchthemes.com/theme-instructions/catch-kathmandu-pro/
Let me know if any problem.

Regards,
Mahesh

Thanks…Ads are gone now…what do I use to add back my original Slider images and activate them and the Featured content boxes. Is this the Theme Options part of the Appearance=>Theme Options area…this seems to override the Customize options when used…there appears to be two areas to set up the features. The latter is more familiar to me…but it changes back to the defaults when I try to use it. The upgrade wiped away my choices for the slider. I remember it was easier to use before…but that was two years ago when I set up this original site and I have used several other vendor template options since, including the non-pro version for other sites I have designed…why does this seem so confusing? …Dr Dan CampTimlo.org

@ddk: Sorry for the confusion but we recommend you to use the customizer instead of theme options as it is easy to use and you can also see the live preview. So for adding Slider, go to Dashboard=> Appearance=> Customize=> Featured Slider=> Slider Option and choose which ever slider type you were using before and follow along. (make sure it is enabled)
Please do the same for Featured Content, go to Dashboard=> Appearance=> Customize=> Theme Options=> Homepage Featured Content and select Homepage/Front page or Entire site as per you desire in Enable Content drop-down option. Then select you desired Featured Content Type and add up the images.
I would like to help you further if you need any. Let me know if any problem. Sorry for the trouble.

Regards,
Mahesh
