how do i adjust the marquis (header?) area on the main home page- that is in a loop slideshow of the “posts” or media content in the thumbnail grid container.

i would like to delete any and all text on the images – the titles of the projects flash up there for a second and its very distracting…and i would like to adjust the size of this marquis area to reflect and mirror the same width as the thumbnail grid container.

    Hi Shane

    The home page slider settings for Focus can be found at Appearance > Theme Settings > Slider.

    Your requests are unfortunately not covered by the theme’s options. To remove the slider text you can try the following under Appearance > Custom CSS:

    /* Focus Slider Remove H1 */
.slider h1 {
display: none;
}

    To remove the slider play button you can try the following under Appearance > Custom CSS:

    /* Remove slider play button and expand link area to cover slider */
.slider .play {
top: 0 !important;
left: 0 !important;
background-image: none !important; 
margin: 0 !important;
width: 100% !important;
height: 420px !important;
}

    For further customisations we can recommend the developers at Codeable: https://codeable.io/

    Hey Andrew –
    awesome! – that worked , no play button and no text – you are a rockstar man! –
    next step…
    now, 2 questions :
    • how do i adjust the “width” of the marquis slider (…will look better 30 % smaller – width wise)
    • how do i get the entire image to be in the slider , so it doesn’t crop!?
    thanks so much of your time – almost there!
    best – shane

    To run a fixed width slider you could try something like this:

    /* Focus Slider */
.slider { 
  margin: 0 auto;
  width: 960px !important; 
}
.slider .wp-post-image { margin-top: 0 !important; }

    You can adjust 960px as required.

    Hey Andrew!
    is there a quick css code for changing the color and opacity of the play button in the slider ?
    ideally want to make it the same as the background color – but not having any luck.

    i.e. .

    .slider. play
    {color =#161616}

    *addendum : ….or just a thinner more delicate outline of the round play button in the slider…half opacity.

    thanks – shane

    It’s possible to upload your own play button via Appearance > Theme Settings > Video. You can put opacity on your own button in Photoshop and save as a PNG.

    Hey andrew – thanks!

    i tried uploading different sizes png and jpg using the theme setting > video > play button (custom) – not working.
    any custom code that can point and designate that play button image i uploaded to the media gallery ..point and designate to the home main slider?

    thanks in advance – shane.

    Not sure what might be the issue there. Is your custom button showing in Theme Settings after uploading it?

    Opacity settings sent in previous thread – perhaps that’ll do the job.
