Hello: I’m sure this has been asked many times, and I know there is a tutorial available on Child Themes.
I made a child theme and all the CSS is working fine. The only issue is that the black header bar doesn’t have my category menu. It simply has an non-working link to customize it. Is there a simple way to import my header menu from the parent theme, or does this involve a lot of steps and rewriting of PHP files? Thank you. — Larry
Hi,
If you activated your child theme and there is no menu selected like this – http://www.screencast.com/t/vFs6DgrMZjB go to Appearence->Menus and select a menu http://www.screencast.com/t/PkKNHZ0k0 . If this is not what you want to know, please provide more info.
Thanks
I was having the problem in “Live Preview.” I didn’t want to activate the Child Theme until I resolved the issue. Your information was very helpful though. I didn’t realize that all I had to do was check the box inside “menus” on the left side panel. That should have been obvious. This worked perfectly to get the footer menu, but since we had this chat, now I no longer have any black header menu at all. Checking the header boxes on the left-side panel doesn’t bring it back. Before it had a “customize” message. Now it’s gone. Any ideas? If not, it’s not a big deal.
Thank you.
Never mind. I fiugred it out. I had made a change to the CSS and had to undo it. Now I have the black box back, and I fixed the header menu based on your information. Thank you again for help.
