ok yeah you are right, I tried again. Sorry.

Thanks for your help!

Global colors didn’t work when I tried to change them after installing the newsweek template. BUT, the header function you just showed me did. Thanks for that.

Now when I try to change the single post template as your documentation says you can do, the page just comes up blank. So I cannot switch back and forth between single post templates as described.

I can see how to make it ‘sticky’ but, this is not he same morphing header like the ‘newsweek’ theme

or am I doing this backwards? I couldn’t change the entire site colors to green on the Newsweek theme through the theme control panel, so opted to install the other ‘green’ highlighted theme and have exchanged the header, but now the functions of the site are not the same.

Is this even adjustable without using code? Otherwise I will just revert back to the old plan of installing the newsweek theme and then changing all the colors manually….

I think I will just instal the already green ‘newspaper publisher pro’ template and then use your single post option to change the universal template for posts as described in your documentation so i can get the ‘newsweek’ post style and the colors are not a headache.

Then change the header to the ‘newsweek’ one. Hoping this will be a solution.

Then, if it’s just easier for me to instal the pre made ‘newspaper_publication_pro’ how do I make the blog posts the same design as the ‘newsweek’one? I like how the title in the Newsweek is in the image as opposed to the top title being above the image in the ‘newspaper_publication_pro’ theme. I also like the ‘Newsweek’ header action better than the ‘newspaper_publication_pro’ one.

Ok, thanks, I think I see documentation on updating the theme now, it was just a little confusing in the child theme section of your instructions.

Thanks.

This is how I understand it thus far: the child theme is important because all of my posts and personalization of the theme are done on the child theme and when I go to update the theme when you update it, I merely replace the main theme and all of my edits and blogs and personalization remains intact and the ‘base main theme’ is what is overwritten by the update. Right?

SO, if you are saying ‘child theme no longer needed because of our invention and update proof’ how does your new process of no child theme work and how does it NOT overwrite all my stuff if I am updating the main theme then?
