Hi all,
Website : http://www.sweetdaddy.fr
Here are my current problems :
1) Using Chrome, I get this problem in menu : http://hpics.li/df16b0e ; on IE it works fine. Any idea where it comes from ?
2) I found the menu to personalize the 404 page, but is it possible to modify it with a custom picture, and make the page in 404 showing just it ?
3) The sidebar does not show what I did put in the custom sidebar I did create, and it is well selected in theme panel > categories ; by the way, if I change the “newspaper default” one (in the theme panel), it does not change anything too (I tried to see). Where did I forget to check something ? ^^
Thanks in advance for your help !
Hi,
1. I see that you use child theme, please switch to the main theme, clear cache and see if you still have this issue. If it is fixed please make sure that you update the child theme version provided with latest version of the theme(version that you use), you can find it in the /code folder.
2. You can alter 404 template and modify it like you wish – http://screencast.com/t/s2DCUoVsnKdu
3. Please make sure that your panel settings are saved. For example if you change the module to display articles on specific category, it applies on front-end? If it doesn’t apply please check the system status for this value – http://screencast.com/t/VQxFWDGh4Gq and change it if you have access to php.ini file or if you don’t, contact your host.
Thanks!
Hi Alin,
Thanks for your answer.
2) ok 🙂
3) I will check it
1) If i use main theme, the problem does not exist anymore, but my menu too 😀
By the way, I’m not sure that all is fine in my WordPress installation of theme and child theme, cause in my child theme I just have a style.css (I did not create it like it is needed I guess ?). And so I can not find the version in a /code folder in it ?
So if anyone can explain me what to do please ? 🙂 I must admit I do not really find clear informations on this subject :/
For me personally I find NOT using a child theme with the more advanced products like this, seems to work better since it’s not a theme on top of a framework on top of WordPress. This means if there is major core change, the child changes too, which defeats purpose.
Well, correct me if I’m wrong, but if you work on parent theme, you’ll lose all changes you have done to all files when it is not an option included in the theme, when the theme will be updated, no ? So having a child theme protects you from losing all your modifications, right ?
Hi,
Yes, using the child theme you will not lose files modifications, please check child theme documentation – https://forum.tagdiv.com/the-child-theme-support-tutorial/ But also Christopher has partially right, using the child theme you will have to check the update log file and see what files are changed(updated) and if your custom modifications are affected.
Please update the child theme, you can find it in the /code folder from package that you download from themeforest – https://forum.tagdiv.com/whats-included/ – http://screencast.com/t/IOwDiplRqoX
Thanks!
Hi, thanks for the additional informations.
I get a question, because I’m not a master in WP : if I work on main theme, can I copy all the content in the child directory when I have done all my modifications ? Like this it would keep all modifications, and when main theme will be updated, I will not loose my modifications, right ?
Because for what I see in the link given by Alin, I’m supposed to copy every file I want to modify, but it is impossible for me to know which one I do modify when I change something in my WP admin ? Or when it is only Under WP, it is keeped when the theme is updated ? I hope my question is clear, sometimes it is hard for me to explain something in English :/
Hi,
Like you can see in the child theme documentation, not all files can be modified using child theme. S I suggest to copy the file(s) that you want to modify in the child theme using the same directory structure under your child theme root path and then make your changes, so the main theme file(s) will not be affected.
Thanks!
