    I can't seem to get the slider arrows to display.

    I also can't seem to get the post snippet and title to show on mobile.

    Education Theme

    Anyone have any idea on what to do?

    Thanks,
    Anthony

    The arrows are there, I can see them just fine.

    You might not be able to see them because of your screen width. The arrows are offset from the slider by 60px in each direction by CSS. If you want to move them closer, you have to override the slider's CSS.

    The post snippet, by design, does not display on mobile.

    Great thanks,

    I've moved the arrows in a bit.

    Any idea if there's a way I can get the titles to display on mobile?

    I mean what's the point of having a slider of images when you don't know what they are/linking to?

    I'm thinking I'll just remove the slider from the mobile version completely if I can't display the title.

    Do you recommend any plugins?

    I've contacted my host and they are pushing me towards all these paid options for security and this and that.

    I can't keep adding monthly expenses.

    The titles on the slider would only be hidden by CSS. Use the mobile design feature in your browser's built-in inspection/development tools to pinpoint the CSS that needs to be changed.

    So I dug into the code a bit and found the code that's stopping the title from being shown (I think).

    .education-pro-home .slide-excerpt {
    display: none;
    }

    To stop this I commented the code out:

    .education-pro-home .slide-excerpt {
    /* display: none; */
    }

    Now when I go into the browsers inspect tool and change it to mobile it shows the title and excerpt...but on an actual phone (I tried an iPhone and an Android), it doesn't display.

    I tried writing new media queries for the mobile title/excerpt to give it size and color and that didn't work either.

    Any Ideas?

    Thanks for all your help.

    It's still showing display: none;. This is what's in your style sheet:

    .education-pro-home .slide-excerpt {
        display: none;
    }

    Also, mobile phones cache style sheets and it can be hard to clear them. Use the mobile phone browser's private or incognito mode to download a fresh copy of the style sheet.

    I downloaded the style.css from the themes CSS file (Via FTP). Did a control F on the file to find the line of code, commented it out, and then re-FTP'd it to the server.

    Why is it still showing that in the style sheet for you?

    Is it maybe because I have Genesis and a Pro Theme. Do I need to change another style sheet?

    I'm kind of an amateur. Sorry!
