    Good Afternoon,

    I’m using the Post Slider that came with the Poseidon theme and am loving it!
    However, many of the featured images that I use for my posts already have text on them and I’d like to remove the post title that is automatically displayed at the bottom of the slider on the homepage.

    Thank you!

  • Hello @m3l1ss4,

    To remove the post title from the slider, please go to your Admin Dashboard>>Appearance>>Customize>>Additional CSS.

    In the Additional CSS, please copy and paste this CSS.

    h2.entry-title {
    display: none;
}

    Hope this helps,

    If you have any problem while achieving this result, please let us know.

    Best Regards !!

    Thank you so much! That’s exactly what I was looking for!
    Is there another CSS I can enter so the shadow bar where the title was is also removed?

    Hi there,

    Thanks for using Poseidon.

    While the above CSS snippet works, it also removes all titles from pages and posts.

    I would recommend this CSS code, which only targets the post content of the slideshow:

    .post-slider .zeeslide .slide-post {
    display: none;
}

    Best,

    @themezee That is perfect!!
    I had added the .home in front @rojina’s suggestion because I noticed that I lost the post titles on my category pages.

    Your solution fixed everything though – even the shaded bar at the bottom of the slider.

    Thank you so much!

    I really appreciate everyone’s help so far with this!
    I have just one more issue.
    Now that the title isn’t displayed on the post slider, I’m not able to click on the slide to navigate to the post.
    Is there a way I can add a link to the image?

    Thanks again!

    Adding a link to the image is more complicated, because it is only possible by overriding the slider template files with a child theme.

    However, this feature is already on our ToDo list and will be added with one of the next updates.

    Best,

    I am a newbie to WordPress and CSS. I am using the Easy Builder theme and I have the same issue. I am using an image in a slider because it is the only image on the Home page but the title shadow is there even without any words entered. I need it to disappear and also the shadow around the slider. I have installed the plugin Simple Custom CSS and entered the CSS precisely as shown. One question: is it to be entered exactly as shown or does “entry-title” get replaced by something to do with Home page
