In reply to: [Twenty Fourteen] Problem creating child themeAlso try looking under Appearance -> Menus -> Manage Locations and make sure it’s correct.
Failing that it’s hard to diagnose without seeing the site – perhaps a screenshot of the front page and your Widgets/Menu pages in the dashboard?

In reply to: Changing Code in Fifteen Plus ThemeTry this:
#footertext { padding-bottom: 20px; } #footertext.col-md-7 { width: 100%; } #parallax-bg { border-bottom: none; }Forum: Themes and Templates
In reply to: [Twenty Fourteen] Problem creating child themeHi again,
I can’t actually suggest that you do that (forum rules) but I have one more idea for you:
With your child theme activated go to Appearance -> Menus
and make sure they are set in the correct Theme Locations and click ‘Save Menu’
Sometimes you have to do this when changing themes.
Cheers,
Luke
Hi Peter,
You could deal with the icons individually so the text spacing remains consistent?
Giving you this: Screenshot
1. Remove the code I gave you before.
2. Use something like this instead:
.icon-question, .icon-book, .icon-envelope, .icon-truck, .icon-map-marker { padding-right: 15px; } .icon-leaf { padding-right: 10px; } .icon-lock { padding-right: 18px; }As for the primary navigation labels try:
#menu-main-menu li a .icon-map-marker { padding-left: 9px; } #menu-main-menu li a .icon-envelope { padding-left: 15px; }Those two seem to be the main culprits – Screenshot
Hope that sorts it for you 🙂

In reply to: [Hathor] No reponse functionality on blog?Hi there!
Do you mean comments are not displaying on your blog posts?
If so, you can change this on the post page:
Screen Options -> Discussion
Then scroll down and check the box next to ‘Allow Comments’
Also, check that in Settings -> Reading you have the box ticked next to ‘Allow people to post comments on new articles’
Hope I understood you correctly 🙂

In reply to: [Auberge] how to: remove white gradient from header imageHi there!
I think this snippet of code should do the trick for you:
.site-banner-media::before { background: none; }You can paste this code in your child theme’s style.css or in a custom css plugin such as Simple Custom CSS.
I hope that helps 🙂

In reply to: Store front theme header logo ?Hi,
If you go to Appearance -> Storefront and scroll down a little you’ll see:
Install and activate either Jetpack or the to enable a custom logo option in the Customizer.
Click on the button ‘Install Jetpack’
Then you’ll be able to go to Appearance -> Customize and add your company’s logo.
I hope that helps 🙂

In reply to: [Twenty Fourteen] Problem creating child themeHi there!
I just created a child theme for Twenty Fourteen with the exact code you posted above and I’m not having any of the problems you mentioned.
You are right in thinking no other files need to be copied over when creating the child theme.
Could it perhaps be a caching problem in your browser? Might be worth clearing your browser’s cache and reloading a few times to make sure it’s not something simple.
If that doesn’t work could you post a link to your site and we’ll take a look for you.
I hope that helps 🙂

In reply to: [Arcade Basic] Add content above Footer?Your welcome Angela, glad you got it working okay 🙂
Forum: Themes and Templates
In reply to: [Arcade Basic] Add content above Footer?1. Download the footer.php from the parent theme folder onto your computer.
2. Open it with a text editor (i.e. notepad).
3. Add your HTML content to the top of the file.
4. Upload the file to your child theme folder.
Custom CSS – Depends on what method you used to store your CSS styles. If it’s in a plugin such as Simple Custom CSS or Jetpack then these are theme agnostic so you won’t need to do anything.
If you pasted them into your parent theme’s style.css file (which is not a good practice as they can be lost when a theme updates) – you can copy them into your child theme’s style.css file.
Once you have your CSS sorted and footer.php uploaded you can activate the child theme.

In reply to: [Arcade Basic] Add content above Footer?Yes, notepad is fine.
What did you paste into your style.css ?
Forum: Themes and Templates
In reply to: [Arcade Basic] Add content above Footer?You just need to change the template line in your style.css file, should be:
Template: arcade-basicForum: Themes and Templates
In reply to: [Arcade Basic] Add content above Footer?….I missed one question. The
functions.phpfile :You need the opening php tag like in my example. It does say this on the codex page:
The first line of your child theme’s functions.php will be an opening PHP tag (<?php), after which you can enqueue your parent and child theme stylesheets.
