To remove both the link from the photo as well as remove the "Continue" text from the dual slider, you can do this:

So to disable the Continue link in the dualslider.php go to Line 16, where you should find code like below:

16 <?php  if ($data[ 'custom_link' ]) { ?>
17 <a class="sliderMore" href="<?php echo $data[ 'custom_link' ]; ?>">Continue »</a></p>
18 <?php } else { ?>
19 <a class="sliderMore" href="<?php the_permalink() ?>">Continue »</a></p>
20 <?php } ?>

To leave everything as is and just disable it by commenting, you need to comment out the lines 17 and 19. Comment out the WHOLE line unless you want to leave something in place where the "Continue" link was. You should get something like this:

16 <?php  if ($data[ 'custom_link' ]) { ?>
17 <!--<a class="sliderMore" href="<?php echo $data[ 'custom_link' ]; ?>">Continue »</a></p>-->
18 <?php } else { ?>
19 <!--<a class="sliderMore" href="<?php the_permalink() ?>">Continue »</a></p>-->
20 <?php } ?>

P.S. You can also comment out or delete all five of the lines (16 to 20), since they are simply there to create the link "Continue".

To remove the link from the images you need to go to the end of the file to line 46, where you should have code like this:

46 <?php  if ($data[ 'custom_link' ]) { ?>
47 <a href="<?php echo $data[ 'custom_link' ]; ?>"><?php the_post_thumbnail('dual'); ?></a>
48 <?php } else { ?>
49 <a href="<?php the_permalink() ?>"><?php the_post_thumbnail('dual'); ?></a>
50 <?php } ?>

And you need to edit that so that the picture is still there, but it has no link. So we need to comment out the <a href="<?php echo $data[ 'custom_link' ]; ?>"> part in Line 47 and Line 49, like this:

46 <?php  if ($data[ 'custom_link' ]) { ?>
47 <!--<a href="<?php echo $data[ 'custom_link' ]; ?>">--><?php the_post_thumbnail('dual'); ?></a>
48 <?php } else { ?>
49 <!--<a href="<?php the_permalink() ?>">--><?php the_post_thumbnail('dual'); ?></a>
50 <?php } ?>

P.S. If you want to be "clean and valid" try also commenting out the </a> closing tags on line 47 and 49 since we commented out the opening part of the <a> tag.

Just remember to save a backup, since you could mess up the theme if you do something wrong. That's why at least I suggest commenting, not deleting the stuff already in there.

Thanks escotth. I still can't remove the link from the images, I tried setting the link to # but it's still working

All:

To all who are interested, I wanted to set up the dual slider to display a caption for each picture, but I didn't want it to link to a post. After looking at the code (I am a coding newbie) and reading the posts here, I figured out how to do it.

I created a posting for each picture in a "Slider Posts" Category. For each post I selected the image I wanted to display as the Featured Image for the post. I then set the slider Custom Link to "#".

Next I edited lines 17 and 19 of dual-slider.php to replace the string "Continue »" with " ". This got rid of the posting link and the word "Continue" from the slider description text.

Hope this helps some of you.
