Hi Pratam,
For your first and third issue, paste the following code in your custom css
Appearance -> theme options -> styling options -> custom css

Code:

.header-info {
display: none;
}
.flex-caption {
background: hsla(0, 0%, 0%, 0.3);
}

For your second issue:
a) If you want to change the color of footer area then paste the following code in your custom css

Code:

.footer-wrapper {
background: blue;
}
.footer {
background: blue;
}

inplace of 'blue' you can put your required color or color code.

b) If you want to edit the text "join us on facebook" in the footer widget area then go to the sidebar-footer.php file(Theme directory -> sidebar-footer.php) and follow the instruction shown in the image given below

You will not get theme directory in your dashboard.
You can edit sidebar-footer.php file through FTP.
Open your Theme directory (through FTP)
Download sidebar-footer.php file from there, Edit it, Then again upload it.


For your fourth issue, go to the General setting panel(Settings ->General ) in the dashboard and follow the instruction shown in the image given below






Thanks.

Unfortunately there isn't a way to do that with our theme unless you custom code something up. Sorry.

 

Hi Support,

What is the class to change the text color inside the caption box on the slider?
Right Now it's gray.

Also, how can i remove the search bar and have the nav menu be centered?

Thanks Alot for your help.

 

For your first issue, paste the following code in your custom css
Appearance -> theme options -> styling options -> custom css

Code:

.flex-caption h1 a {
color:blue;
}
.flex-caption p {
color:red;
}

Inplace of red and blue you can put your required color or color code.

For your second issue, Go to the theme directory and open the header.php file and edit the code as shown in the image given below.


Thanks,
Piyush

 

How do you center the nav bar after you remove the search?

 

It will automatically get centered after doing the above process.

 

Paste this code in Custom CSS
Appearance > Theme Option > Styling Option > Custom CSS

Code:

#menu li.current_page_item a {
margin-left: 200px;
}

Adjust the value of margin-left.

NOTE: If you will add more pages(menu) then you will need to adjust the value of this margin-left again .
