In reply to: [Sydney] Changing sub menu font type and lookThanks LebCit, just running it on my test site but it still doesn’t change the sub menu font. I still need a way of changing the look of the sub menu, just looks so damn ugly at the moment!

In reply to: [Lightbox & Modal Popup WordPress Plugin - FooBox] Lightbox not loadingDoh, playing around managed to solve it, had this in my theme function script. Removed it and now working fine! Great work on the app, really like it.
function defer_parsing_of_js ( $url ) {
if ( FALSE === strpos( $url, ‘.js’ ) ) return $url;
if ( strpos( $url, ‘jquery.js’ ) ) return $url;
return “$url’ defer “;
}

In reply to: Blog page load issue and web page load icon issueUpdate: resolved the blog issue by deactivating all plugins and clearing cache and loading up one by one. Turns out it was the autoptimze plugin which I’ve now deactivated.
Can’t resolve the 2nd issue though!

In reply to: [Sydney] Blog page load issue and web page load icon issueHi Kharis, just tried that and eventually found it was the plugin auto-optimize causing the issue. Thanks for the tip. Blog now works the same as my test site. The responsive load icon has disappeared though so not sure why one issue is fixed and the other not?

In reply to: Considerations for child theme when updating parent themeHi,if your child theme is working then activate this and you make style amendments in the child theme from the get go.

In reply to: [Sydney] Creating child theme when already customised ver 1.23Update for anyone interested and thanks Paul for the help.
Created a sub-domain for a new staging environment and used the Duplicator plugin to copy my site, a few technical hitches and workarounds as it didn’t all work like the vids suggested.
Once the test site was up and running I went ahead and uploaded this child theme http://www.nyctechclub.com/using-a-child-theme-for-sydney-theme-footer-modification/
Then using my parent site settings copied these across to the test site under customisations. I then added my custom CSS. There’s a few minor glitches I need to get help with but almost there. Quite a challenge for a novice but nice to learn all the same.

In reply to: [Sydney] Creating child theme when already customised ver 1.23Hi based on the template file names here https://developer.wordpress.org/themes/basics/template-files/ and checking files modified via ftp it does not appear any theme template files have been changed.
So if I just updated to 1.26 from 1.23 are you saying I would just need to extract the changes from my style sheet and that’s it?
To do this we need to extract all the changes in edited stylesheet and re-declare it one by one in child theme stylesheet.
Not sure what you mean here – sorry! – if I follow the steps from this link will that work?

In reply to: [Sydney] Creating child theme when already customised ver 1.23Hey Paul, thanks for replying so quickly, I appreciate that.
No changes made to functions.php file
Quick question, how is this achieved?
The edited version of theme stylesheet should not be used in as child theme stylesheet, we need to make changes by overriding parent theme CSS, so our child theme stylesheet only contain the overriding changes.
For the staging environment I’ll have to check with my cloud host and see if they offer this! Great tip though.
Thanks

In reply to: [Sydney] Appearance differences between domainsOk, update, I fixed it with the following code in my htaccess file.
<IfModule mod_headers.c>
<FilesMatch “\.(eot|font.css|otf|ttc|ttf|woff)$”>
Header set Access-Control-Allow-Origin “*”
</FilesMatch>
</IfModule>Forum: Themes and Templates
In reply to: [Sydney] Appearance differences between domainsHey Kharis, thanks for the reply. Tried these three potential solutions listed which were:
1. Login to your site admin area
2. Go to Settings > General
3. Don’t include www in the fields that say “WordPress Address (URL)” and “Site Address (URL)”
4. Save ChangesTry to add the following in the .htaccess file; right after # END WordPress line.
<IfModule mod_headers.c>
Header set Access-Control-Allow-Origin “*”
</IfModule>install and activate the WP Font Awesome plugin
No luck with any of them i’m afraid.

In reply to: [Sydney] Top header menu visibility problems othersMr Case thank you so much for kindly responding and helping me to fix those two issues. Works great now 🙂
I’ve optimized all my pictures so they are much smaller but still look great which has helped load times.
My next task is to sort out a booking/payment system so I can track bookkings against places. Any recommendations? I’ve looked at woocommerce, again, just need something a novice can handle!
