The slider puts on top of the 800×250 image the title of the post plus about two sentences from the post.

Is there a way to shorten the amount of text displayed? or even remove the text completely and leave only the post title with the link to the full post?

It is a shame that the image is completely covered by the text when the site is viewed in mobile phone browsers.

There’s no easy way to hide just the excerpts from the slider. But you can hide the captions completely on mobile devices:

@media (max-width: 1100px) {
body.mobile .theme-default .nivo-caption { display: none; }
}
@media (max-width: 800px) {
.theme-default .nivo-caption { display: none; }
}

I don’t want to hide the captions on mobile devices only but hide the captions on all devices.

Shame to have a good picture there and then cover it with an ugly black bar and caption. Makes the whole slider less than useful.

Can captions be turned off completely?

So it appears there is no support for this theme also.

No matter there are many other themes that are useful.

This one obviously is no good with the slider made ugly

Kevin, your question is not the same question as the original one.

You can use a simpler CSS:
.theme-default .nivo-caption { display: none; }
