    Hi Kathleen – I think the dev team is still looking into it.  You can track the issue at https://github.com/cuny-academic-commons/cbox-theme/issues/100

    Great, thanks! As long as I’ve got you: I’m currently having an odd thing going on. I have two site features appearing in the slider right now; every once in a while, when the page loads, the slider loads the caption boxes for both slides on top of the first one, and then the second image has no caption box. A refresh usually fixes it, but I thought I’d let you know nonetheless.

    Thanks for all your help!

    Hi Kathleen – I opened up a ticket so the dev team is aware.  Thanks for testing.

    I am new to Commons in a Box, but am finding it very intuitive.  I have encountered one issue, however, where the grey overlay for my slider has “disappeared.”  Does anyone have a suggestion on how that might have happened (maybe I inadvertently changed a setting?) and a recommendation on how to get it back?

    Hi @mike-culligan –

    Can you provide a screenshot or link so that we better understand the issue?  That would greatly help our diagnosis.  Thanks!

    Scott – the attached image file shows the issue. The gray overlay has “disappeared” from the slider making the white text for the slider description field illegible.

    Hi @mike-culligan –

    That is a strange issue.  The CSS that puts in that overlay is this:

    .flex-caption {
        background-image: url(“/wp-content/themes/cbox-theme/assets/images/slides-bg.png”);
        border-top: 1px solid #545353;
        color: #FFFFFF;
        text-shadow: 0 1px 0 #000000;
    }
    Can you check on your site to see if you have that background image?

CBOX has its roots in the CUNY Academic Commons, which in turn was made possible through funding from The City University of New York itself.
