  hi,
  I’m using the theme Sight and I would like to disable or remove all text and background color on the slideshow. I want only the image appears to occupy the entire width of the page.

  Is this possible?

  I saw a similar topic here, but does not help me:

  Thank you.

  Hi there, would you be able to provide a link to your WordPress.com site using Sight? I don’t see any sites attached to this user account. Thanks!

  my website is http://www.culturabocairent.es, but is on a test stand. Even I don’t have a permanent hosting.

  If this doesn’t work, I can give you the password to access the test platform with an internal message…

  Thanks.

  It looks like your site is self-hosted, but these forums are for folks hosted here at WordPress.com, not folks running WordPress software on their own hosting.

  The self-hosted version of Sight is from WPShower: http://wpshower.com/themes/sight/

  Looks like they have their own forum for Sight support, so try asking your question there. Good luck! http://wpshower.com/forums/forumdisplay.php?f=4

  Hello kathrynwp,

  I have a blog. I selected the theme Sight to show my problem. The URL is:

  https://weblabblog.wordpress.com

  In this way, do you can solve my problem?

  Thanks.

  Thanks for the link.

  I’m using the theme Sight and I would like to disable or remove all text and background color on the slideshow. I want only the image appears to occupy the entire width of the page.

  You’ll need Custom Design to make these changes.

  This should remove the text in the slider and change the default yellow background colour to white:

  .featured-post-content {
  display: none;
  }
  #featured-content .featured-post  {
    background-color: #fff;
  }

  The image in the slider is 640px wide, which doesn’t take up the entire width of the slider. I don’t think it’s possible to change the size of the image itself just with CSS, since the image is cropped and set within the img tag itself, as you can see if you view the browser source on your test site:

  <div class="featured-thumbnail">
  <a rel="bookmark" title="Enlace permanente a Mauris eget est imperdiet, viverra metus non, viverra felis. Nullam nibh nisl, posuere sed porttitor a, tincidunt in arcu" href="https://weblabblog.wordpress.com/2014/11/11/mauris-eget-est-imperdiet/">
  <img class="attachment-sight-featured-thumbnail wp-post-image" width="640" height="290" alt="muntanya" src="https://weblabblog.files.wordpress.com/2014/11/muntanya.jpg?w=640&h=290&crop=1" draggable="false">
  </a>
  </div>
