In reply to: [Responsive] Responsive Child Theme widgets not workingYayyyyy! I removed the @import core/css from my child-theme style.css and it worked. That easy. The ‘call to action’ button is still breaking out of the responsive container, but that doesn’t bother me so much! If you know of an easy fix to that, Im all ears. Most importantly all the widgets are now view-able vertically so all the content is easy to see on the phone! Thank you James Mfanyakitu 🙂
Yes babyfaceweb, this is definitely a learning experience for me! And it is going very well so far. Thankfully I grew up with a computer programmer dad and web designer brother, so I am familiar and comfortable enough with things to get by. Just reading and problem solving as I go 🙂
Thanks for the help guys

In reply to: [Responsive] Responsive Child Theme widgets not workingHi there babyfaceweb 🙂
So, my site is online! Could you not see it?? it is http://learn.tacomacc.edu
I am pretty confident that the widget issue was not related to my minor edits because my edits were present in the parent theme and it did not affect the widgets there. It was only when I activated the child theme using the same exact edited files from the parent theme that I had issues. My edits were purely minor cosmetic adjustments to remove the default text and images from cyberchimps on the front page.
Anyway, I figured out that it just bumped my widget content one widget down on the list, so I was able to fix it easily, thankfully.
However, I just realized today that my child theme is not appearing correctly when I open the site on my phone! I just updated the parent theme, so I thought maybe it was a problem with the update. But it wasn’t, because I re-activated the updated parent responsive theme and it displayed correctly on my phone. So now I am stumped again :/ Any ideas?? I am not sure which codes make the widgets adjust to the phone to appear vertically, but I know I did not touch them in my child theme! Let me know if you can help! 🙂 I will probably just post this as a new topic on Monday. Thanks for your effort to assist me, much appreciated!

In reply to: [Responsive] Responsive Child Theme widgets not workingOkay, soooo, I just manually moved all my widget content back to their correct widget locations using the WP dashboard Appearance>Widgets drag and drop. That has solved the issue at least for now. I am hoping that updates don’t mess up my widgets in Child Theme again tho! We’ll see. My content seems to be okay though, which is what I was more worried about. I don’t know what would have caused the widget content to be automatically moved like that just by using a Child Theme. I don’t understand it, but was able to at least temporarily fix it. Would still love to hear any thoughts on what is going on and how to more properly fix this issue 🙂 Thnx all.

In reply to: [Responsive] Responsive Child Theme widgets not workingK, so I think I am seeing what happened some how! In Appearance>Widgets, all my content got bumped forward one widget. So my Home1 content is now in Home2, Home2 is Home3, Home3 is in Sidebar, and Top is in Footer. Weird. Any ideas what would cause all my widgets to move like that between the parent and child? My .php customizations are not affected.

In reply to: [Responsive] Responsive Child Theme widgets not workingOkay BabyFaceWeb, I activated my child theme. But I can really only leave it that way for a day because people are using this website and I don’t want to leave it messed up for too long :/
learn.tacomacc.edu … Let me know what you think!
stephencottontail, I posted on the theme developers direct forum and they said they could not help me because I made some minor edits to a .php file. :/
Hope someone can help! 🙂

In reply to: [Responsive] responsive.1.9.5.2 ~ messes up child themeOkay, sooo, I am having this issue as well with responsive theme. The only thing I have in the child theme is the child style.css and my customized front-page.php. I only have a few changes to the front-page.php that need to be maintained. Currently my changes are present in the parent theme, because I directly edited it (this is why I am creating a child theme because I don’t want to lose my changes when I update). Anyway, before I update responsive theme I want to make sure my child is displaying properly, and it is not! When I activate it, all my widgets are screwed up, moved around, and content changed. I don’t understand what is happening since it should be calling in the exact same thing that is showing in the parent perfectly!
I tried adding the @import url(..’responsive/core/css/style.css’); line as suggested in this thread and it didn’t make a difference. Any other ideas!?? need help :/
Great, thank you Vovafeldman! 🙂
I am not sure what to link to :/ Can you help me? Currently I am self hosting the site on my computer to build the webpage before publishing it. So the url is http://127.0.0.1/wordpress/. Is that what you need? Or something else? Thank you 🙂
Whoops, I didn’t link to the screen shots properly…Here you go:
