How to remove blackbird updates on homepage

Hi rshaw876,

The box you have seen in home page is the default text box for slider.
This is an extra feature added in new update.

If you want to set this go to Dashboard->Home Top Feature->Home Top Feature Heading write some text, save it and refresh your website you can see the difference.
If your want to hide this box then put the following code in custom css

.flex-caption{
display:none;
}

Similarly in footer we set default footer widgets. You set footer widgets to remove default one.

I think this may resolve your problem.

thanks but i tried the code to hide the box but it doesn’t work

and also how do i remove the content circles?

Hi,
Try this code.

.flex-caption, .circle{
display:none !important;
}

This will hide both the boxes and content circles.

tried it but it still does not work

Hi rshaw876,

For your information, the contents in the theme can be replaced by your’s from Dashboard->Appearance->Theme Options
All you have to do is just place your contents in various fields appearing in Theme Option Panel.

This will resolve your issue,

Do let me know if you need further assistance,
