Removing the enqueuing method from functions.php and adding the [@import](https://wordpress.org/support/users/import/) line referenced above to my style.css DID fix the tiny icon issue and lets me keep the blue theme options color. * I’m interested to know what the developers might have to say. From what I understand, the enqueuing method is faster. Is this correct? * Forum: [Themes and Templates](https://wordpress.org/support/forum/themes-and-templates/) In reply to: [[Writr] Post icons in child theme are tiny](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/post-icons-in-child-theme-are-tiny/) * Thread Starter [jkshay](https://wordpress.org/support/users/jkshay/) * (@jkshay) * [10 years, 9 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/post-icons-in-child-theme-are-tiny/#post-6376132) * Thanks for the reply, Kathryn. Adding the priority 11 like you suggested DID fix the tiny post icon issue. However, it also completely overrides the Theme Options –> Color Scheme setting. Regardless of the chosen color (I use Blue), the theme only renders the turquoise color. * Any advice? * Thanks, * Jonathan * Forum: [Themes and Templates](https://wordpress.org/support/forum/themes-and-templates/) In reply to: [[Catch Box] Missing menu on category entries](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/missing-menu-on-category-entries/) * Thread Starter [jkshay](https://wordpress.org/support/users/jkshay/) * (@jkshay) * [11 years, 9 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/missing-menu-on-category-entries/#post-5128915) * Aack! I spoke too soon. While I *did* get my main menu to begin appearing on category pages, I lost my members-only secondary menu. The secondary menu works– if I assign it as the secondary menu (non-members-only), then it appears. However, this menu needs to be members-only. Assigning this menu to “Secondary Menu – Members Only” does not cause the secondary menu to display when I’m logged into my site. I’ve removed the association between this menu and the menu location several times, hoping that it might eventually “take”… to no avail. * Any ideas? * Forum: [Themes and Templates](https://wordpress.org/support/forum/themes-and-templates/) In reply to: [[Catch Box] Missing menu on category entries](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/missing-menu-on-category-entries/) * Thread Starter [jkshay](https://wordpress.org/support/users/jkshay/) * (@jkshay) * [11 years, 9 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/missing-menu-on-category-entries/#post-5128911) * After following the tips at this [post](http://wordpress.org/support/topic/wp-nav-menu-dissapears-in-category-pages-1?replies=21) with limited success, I started thinking about WHEN exactly I last saw this work properly. * I had recently made some changes to my site by installing a VideoWhisper plugin and a Wiki Lite plugin. I didn’t end up using either, and decided to uninstall both of them. * I first uninstalled Wiki Lite, and saw no changes. I then deleted Wiki Lite and saw no changes. I followed this with an uninstall of VideoWhisper – still no changes. Finally, I deleted the VideoWhisper plugin files. SUCCESS! I finally got my menu back on my category pages. * For the record, since I was not able to successfully resolve this using the aforementioned post, I completely removed any additions to functions.php and category.php made during that attempt. * I don’t know if it was the combination of removing both of these plugins, but I specifically thought about these plugins as culprits because I had a hunch that the issue was related to grouping articles by type (article), and both of these plugins created custom types. * Forum: [Plugins](https://wordpress.org/support/forum/plugins-and-hacks/) In reply to: [[Subscriptions shortcode for Jetpack] Change text of 'Subscription' module inside [jpsub]](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/change-text-of-subscription-module-inside-jpsub/) * [jkshay](https://wordpress.org/support/users/jkshay/) * (@jkshay) * [13 years ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/change-text-of-subscription-module-inside-jpsub/#post-3332065) * I had the opposite problem as booth_1 – I wanted to _hide_ the number of subscribers.

It’s the submenu items under the main menu item“ GALLERY” that I’m wanting to reduce in overall height. * And thanks again for your assistance! 🙂 * Forum: [Themes and Templates](https://wordpress.org/support/forum/themes-and-templates/) In reply to: [Sub-menu item height in twenty twelve child](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/sub-menu-item-height-in-twenty-twelve-child/) * Thread Starter [jkshay](https://wordpress.org/support/users/jkshay/) * (@jkshay) * [13 years, 2 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/sub-menu-item-height-in-twenty-twelve-child/#post-3475129) * My custom theme is a child of twenty twelve. If I remove my entire custom theme’s style.css contents, I receive a “theme broken” message. If I implement just the code to inherit the parent theme’s style.css, then my gallery submenu still appears the same height as in my custom theme. If I change my theme to the twenty twelve standard theme, then my submenu still appears thicker than I want, and appears in height identical to my child-theme’s style.css-driven submenu. * In a nutshell, it doesn’t seem like removing my child theme’s style.css made any change in my sub-menu appearance. * I’m no html programmer (C# .NET for me), but my understanding of css is that settings that appear lower in the css file are the most recently applied styles, and that adding !important to a style should apply that style, disregarding any settings it may have inherited with regards to that property – such that the last line in my custom style.css being * ``` #masthead .main-navigation li.menu-item, #masthead .main-navigation li a, #masthead .main-navigation li ul, #masthead .main-navigation li ul li, #masthead .main-navigation li ul li a { height: 30px !important; line-height: 30px !important; } ``` * should override any inherited settings for these elements with regards to the properties in question. * Is my basic understanding of CSS wrong?
