Untick the option in the Slider SPs.

Full details on the slider here:

It's worth reading through all update notes, they explain everything in detail, @Brogan put a lot of effort into them.

Looks like you didn't read the resource I linked you to properly. It clearly shows you a picture of the Slider SPs (Style Properties) which is where I told you the settings were. Your screenshots are of the overlay and the Featured Threads Options page.

how did racedepartment website set there's up?

 

[Paul B]

Ask @Bram.

 

[wickedstangs]

how do you remove the images from the featured thread, I un checked the BB code and they are still there...

 

[Paul B]

If you have unchecked the option, all attach tags and the contents will be stripped.

I unchecked both of them and still get the below..

I am unable to reproduce it.

All img and attach tags are stripped when I check that option.

Checked.


Unchecked.

@wickedstangs did you feature the thread before unticking the BBCode options? If so, that's why the image is still there - it only affects threads you subsequently feature, it's not retroactive.

If so, unfeaturing and then re-featuring will display it with no images.

That worked perfect.. Thanks you..


How do you make the message longer?

 

[Paul B]

Each option does actually have description text.

I would advise spending at least 10 minutes going through the options and style properties to get an understanding of what each one does.

Thank you for all your troubles.. I was doing everything correctly.. I just had to do what @Martok was recommending.. Thanks you..

 

[Paul B]

Yes, to clarify, the manual featuring options only apply when featuring a thread.

Once a thread has been featured, those options do not apply when updating an already featured thread.

The resource content has been updated in preparation for 2.12.

The new features and screenshots can be seen here: https://xenforo.com/community/resources/cta-featured-threads-portal.2599/

Version 2.12 will be released next week.

Is there a way to change the size of the blocks? In some of them where a youtube is posted the youtube is cut off.

See this for example:

[Paul B]

Yes, you can change the size in Style Properties - you can make them a fixed height or dynamic.

Copy how it is done for the page for the thread content and thread text if you want them dynamic.

Brogan's solution works. Personally though I just edit the Featured thread content so that the YouTube video doesn't appear in the first few lines (I tend to move it lower down so it still appears in the block on the Featured Threads page).
