    Theme: Modernize
    Wordpress: v3.8.5

    I have recently updated an image that is stored in a Nivo slider at the bottom of the home page of link above containing client logos.

    I simply replaced the image with a newer one using the UI and a small dot that is a link to nowhere has appeared.

    Any help would be greatly appreciated.

  • If you are using just a single image, do you really need a slider? The dot is just nivo slider’s navigation button (similar to the slider you see in the top slider).

    If you absolutely must use the slider, I would suggest that you hide the div nivo-controlNav with custom CSS as display:none;

    PS: This will not affect the slider on top, since the sliders are different. However, any other page that uses Nivo Slider will be affected by the CSS change I have suggested.

    Very good point. The future intent is to swap out the images using a slider. Ahhh that makes sense as to why it is there.

    I’ve just inherited this website and am very new to WordPress so I was worried about making changes.

    I’ve just changed the slider type to ‘Flex’ and the dot is gone. Is this expected?

    Thanks very much for your help.

    I think that should be okay. I looked up the code for the FlexSlider (https://github.com/woothemes/FlexSlider/blob/master/jquery.flexslider.js) and it does look like the code checks for the number of items (function – setupPaging). Having just 1 item seems to remove the navigation control.
