Hello there 🙂
I have some questions again, thank you for your help!
1. In the theme panel I can enable or disable “SHOW CATEGORIES TAGS”. But can I also display the categorie direct under the title (let’s say next to the date)?
2. Can I use custom php functions anywhere or do I have to install a plugin?
Hi
1. By default the theme does not have an option to display the category tag next to the date but you can achieve that by adding this line of code here: http://screencast.com/t/v0T8J4tbHRD – http://screencast.com/t/DhIWjozpyX
You have to edit each file corresponding with the module used. For example module 3 it’s generated by td_module_3.php. To check where each module it’s used look in theme panel > block settings: http://screencast.com/t/EBdiP6VgoR
2. You can modify any function you want from theme’s code but make sure that you’r changes don’t break the theme functionality. Note that any customizations requires good coding skills and if you’re not aware of the steps you need to take in this regard please consider hiring a developer or a freelancer to do this for you as we can’t offer customization services at the moment.
Thanks!
Hello,
thank you for your answer. If I customize the php files, are they save at the next update? Because someone told me, my changes will be deleted when the theme is updated.
Hi
During the update process all themes files are deleted and replaced by the new theme files so all customizations will be lost. You can avoid that by using the child theme and make your customiztions there. For more details about child theme usage check our documentation: https://forum.tagdiv.com/newsmag-child-theme-support/ also WordPress official documentation could help: https://codex.wordpress.org/Child_Themes
Regarding the code from child theme there is an important aspects that must be considered:
– if in previous theme’s version a specific code added in child theme worked fine that doesn’t mean that will work with a new theme version. When theme update many of its files are changed and it’s a good practice to check update_log.txt file for each update and see what files had been modified so if those specific files are used in the child theme you will have to check your customizations to not break the functionality of the theme.
Hope this help.
Thanks!
Hello,
thank you for your answer!
One last question: Is a Pinterest Button for the Social Counter planned?
Kind regards
Hi
I can’t say at the moment if Pinterest will be added in Social Counter but I’ve added this on our features request list and when the time comes our developers will consider it. This may take some time because we have a long implementation list and we take them one by one.
Thanks for your suggestion, have a nice day.
That’s a pity because the counter is useless without Pinterest.
Thank you anyway!
