@amyfanton: Oh sorry for the late reply and it’s great that you have fixed the issue.

I see that you are modifying the core theme files directly. It is not recommended to modify that way. If you are just modifying css then you can add it in “Appearance => Theme Options => Custom CSS” box. But if you want to further customize the theme then you need to build Child theme and edit it.

@amyfanton: You can add widgets from “Appearance => Widgets”. The easy method to add Facebook like box will be to install Jetpack Plugin http://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/jetpack/, which will add different widgets that you need. Among those, you will see “Facebook Like Box (Jetpack)” then just drag and drop that widget to required sidebar.

@dbentzen: Don’t have option to remove the slider from the post. But yes you can hide the slider in the post by adding the following CSS in “Appearance => Theme Options => Custom CSS” box.
.single-post #main-slider { display: none; }

@Adventus: I don’t get it what you mean. Can you show me you site and then explain.

@dianaascher: Thanks for your appreciation and you know what every theme has it’s limitations.

1. Can I change the size of the slider so it becomes a left-hand slider next to text?
— for this you need to use featured image slider and then change the css. So, for this you need to use your developer. Only image slider in there in Catch Everest Pro.

2. I’m having trouble locating the slider below the header, and the main body content in between the slider and the featured articles.
— I don’t understand this. The slider cannot be moved without customizing the theme. The slider will be below the menu. But I see that in your site, you have 3 post in the slider but only 1 have featured image, that is why it is not displaying properly. Add featured image in http://artemisscribe.com/blog/sample-post-ccj/ and http://artemisscribe.com/blog/weekly-free-download/

3. For some reason, all of the content for my pages gets replaced by the word “On”. Can you tell what’s causing that?
— This is the excerpt text from the post that you have added. You can change that content though the excerpt box or the excerpt text. See this http://en.support.wordpress.com/splitting-content/excerpts/

If you want to control the slide with easy then you need Image Slider where you can upload the image of your own choice size, then add title, content, links all optional.

@Louise: Can you send me your site URL and then I will send you css that you can add to make it transparent.

[Sakin]

@Zoey Cotton: Did you check in the Theme Instruction at http://catchthemes.com/theme-instructions/catch-everest/

I am not so clear about your questions.

The Mount Everest Image and the text with it is the Slider. You can change that by assigning Post ID in Featured Post Slider. For that

1. First create the Post and don’t forget to add in the Featured Image in the post as this image is used in the slider. To add featured image see this http://en.support.wordpress.com/featured-images/#setting-a-featured-image

2. Then get the ID of the post. When you edit your post or write a post, you will see the id in your browser address bar. You will also be able to find the post ID when viewing your all posts. But if you cannot find it then you can use this plugin to view it http://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/catch-ids/

3. Then go to “Appearance => Theme Options => Featured Post Slider”. Add in the post id.

@striderbl: I see that you have customize the footer. Please restore the footer.php file and it will be fine.

Also I see that you are using Free Simple Catch Theme and Remove Theme: Simple Catch. This is necessary for all free theme users. As this is also appreciation that you get for providing the free themes and free support. If you want to edit your footer text. then use simple catch pro theme where you have footer edit options.

@impresnet: In the screenshot you send me. That the transparent image and it is taking the background white of your content.

If you are talking about the box shadow in the image then you can remove that by adding the following CSS in “Appearance => Theme Options => Custom CSS” box.

.entry-content img {
    box-shadow: none;
}

[Sakin]

@aceenrichment: You can add the following CSS in “Appearance => Theme Options => Custom CSS” box.

#main-feat-img {
    box-shadow: none;
    opacity: 1;
}

@impresnet: I cannot find the issue in our site. So, don’t know how to fix it.

[Sakin]

@striderbl: I cannot find anything from screenshot. Can you send me your sire URL?

[Sakin]

@peterbook: Yes only in pro version you have option to choose “featured image slider”. When you use featured image slider, you can upload any image and link to any link, all optional.

[Sakin]

@amyfanton: About your question #2, regarding the height of the slider. You are using Featured Post Slider which automatically crop the large image into the size of Width: 1140px and Height: 450px . So, I mean if you change the the slider from Post Slider to image slider. Then you can upload the image of your own choice. See the theme instruction for more details http://catchthemes.com/theme-instructions/catch-everest-pro/

About your question #1, you can change the gallery from plugin. try searching plugins in http://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/

[Sakin]

@peterbook: To change the link in the image in the slider. You need to use the Featured Image Slider which is there in Catch Everest Pro theme.

[Sakin]

@aceenrichment: Your site is in maintenance mode so I will not be able to fix it.

[Sakin]

@voytas: Which theme are you using it. When i check in your site. You are using different theme. So, let me know it.

[Sakin]

@oly: May be next week. We need to test the feature before releasing the update.

[Sakin]

@Lucosunshine: Will check with you through email.

[Sakin]

@oly: You can have only one slider in all the pages. But for the featured image in the place of slider will be released in next version update.
