1) I have created a slider with a single graphic image for my HOME page. When I click on HOME I get a box with the word HOME in it and the slider in the background. I don't want this box containing the word HOME obscuring the graphic and need to know how to remove it. (attach: home 01.jpeg)

2) How can I turn on/off the information box on each slider image so as it doesn't show?

3) How can I make the the slider image box open with the letter ( i.) as the default so as the viewer has to click the (i) to then read information about the image. This as default would mean the image was not obscured by text. (attach: infi label.jpg)

Hi,
1) I have created a slider with a single graphic image for my HOME page. When I click on HOME I get a box with the word HOME in it and the slider in the background. I don't want this box containing the word HOME obscuring the graphic and need to know how to remove it. (attach: home 01.jpeg)

You can create a slider with a single image in it. The go to Settings -> Reading -> Homepage displays. And from there choose Latest posts option. Then go to FuseFramework -> Homepage and from there choose that slider to be visible on homepage.

2) How can I turn on/off the information box on each slider image so as it doesn't show?

If title field contain image name then the title would be disabled.

3) How can I make the the slider image box open with the letter ( i.) as the default so as the viewer has to click the (i) to then read information about the image. This as default would mean the image was not obscured by text. (attach: infi label.jpg)

Please read here.

Cheers,
Max.

I have followed your instruction ref: Question: 2

How can I turn on/off the information box on each slider image so as it doesn't show?

Your Answer: If title field contain image name then the title would be disabled.

I have done this but the image name is still showing in the box when I open the website also when I open another page and then click "HOME" I still get the large shaded box as per (attached)

Hi,
please update the theme to the latest version. You can do this from FuseFramework -> Updates. Then all need to work fine. If it doesn't in THEME_FUNCTIONS.PHP FILE (theme_config\theme_includes), this code:
$images['slide'][$count]['title'] = ( $image->post_title != $image->post_name ) ? $image->post_title : '';
need to be replaced with:
$images['slide'][$count]['title'] = ( strstr($image->guid ,$image->post_title) === false || $image->post_title != 'no' ) ? $image->post_title : '';
if the title would be the same as image name, which is default from wordpress then the title wouldn't be visible, if you would add another string then it would be visible.

Cheers,
Max.

I updated theme to the latest version as advised I also had to do a Wordpress update. The theme update made no difference so I replaced code as per you instruction. Neither of these adjustments has made a difference.
I have uploaded the image for "HOME slider" and not changed it's name or added a string yet it still shows label and if having left this page then press "HOME" I still get the large box with the word HOME as per my earlier attachment... Please advise

I started a new Wordpress plugin at ( /carrington2 ) yesterday to see if it made a difference as when I updated the PhotoArtist theme as you suggested it made no difference.

I have now also updated Wordpress. I have a list of script (attached) when I try to login to:
http://www.descarrington.co.uk/carrington
I also have a similar script if I login to:
http://www.descarrington.co.uk/carrington2

I have contacted my web hosting company and they are looking into this script issue but seem a little lost to me

Hi,
problem solved. This code:

$images['slide'][$count]['title'] = ( $image->post_title != $image->post_name ) ? $image->post_title : '';

was replaced with:

if (strtolower($image->post_title) != strtolower($image->post_name)) $images['slide'][$count]['title'] = $image->post_title;

Cheers,
Max.

Sorry Max but this is not working.

I uploaded the image for the "HOME" page slider and didn't add string or change name yet title still shows on image when site is viewed. (I have cleared cache)

This is strange because I've not changed the image names on other sliders and as you stated the images do not show a box with info. It only happens on the "HOME" page slider

I have replaced code as per your instruction but still have title showing HOME (see attached ) when first opening site.

If I leave the "HOME" page and return I still get the large box containing the word "HOME" (see attached)

Hi,
it was a user that replied, not me. What about the slider, it works very well, I tested it just know. The box that you provided in screenshot is in case if you are using a page instead of a slider to be visible on homepage.

Cheers,
Max.

Sorry didn't notice it was comment from user.

Just 10 minutes ago I changed the Home page slider image from a jpeg to a png and this resolved the issue with the small info box showing on the HOME page..

I have no idea why it didn't work as a jpeg. I even added this jpeg image to as a test to a different slider and unlike all the other images on that slider it still showed the info box. Strange.

With reference to the large box I attached as a screenshot. This looks wrong and I really need to remove it. This box only shows if I return to the HOME page whilst in the website.

Solved. I've added this code in header.php file:

<?php if (is_page('HOME')) {?>
<style>
.sidebar_right .content_wrapper {
display: none;
}
</style>
<?php } ?>

The slider info box and image name has become visible again on my HOME page.

I have today edited my HOME page. I took away the single image I had been using and replaced it with a slider.

I am now for some reason back where I was last month with regard to the Info box and image name appearing on each image.

I have tried to resolve this but without success.

Hi,

All is working fine, did you solve the problem on you own?

If there are a slider that I didn't see and it has this problem please provide a link to this slider.

Also, the log-in details doesn't work.

Cheers,
George
