In reply to: How can I Create Multiple Drop Down Menus?In your menu setup you can create drop downs like this, setup your main item then under it drag the sub-item slightly to the right so it looks like this.
Menu-Item-1
..Sub-item=1
..Sub-item-2
..Sub-item-3
Menu-item-2
..Sub-item-4
..Sub-item-5
….Sub-item-5.1
….Sub-item-5.2
..Sub-item-6(dots are spaces, this wont allow blank spaces)
etc… I hope that helps. You can also make pages “Parent Pages” and on the child page SELECT which page is it’s PARENT.

In reply to: How can I change the color of this text?First of all you should update the site to the latest version of WP, BUT before you do, Backup the site AND the database.
Try this in your custom css for your labels.
.variations .label { color: black; }Forum: Fixing WordPress

In reply to: setting up a child themeNo you don’t need to enqueue the functions, that was from earlier versions of WP. The functions file should work with your custom functions and no enqueue.
In the style sheet you add your own styling, a good place to research css is W3Schools.com. Say for instance you want the text in the body of your site to be black you could add the following style to your style.css. I will add another post here with links showing you how you can figure out how and try out different css on your own site within your browser without actually changing your code. In other words some developer tools you will find handy and useful for styling your own site. They will help you find the selectors you want to change. In the example below the selector is (.body)..body { text: black; }Forum: Fixing WordPress
In reply to: setting up a child themeMost of the modifications or customizations you can make within the 2 main files in your child theme, those being the style.css and functions.php files. There are some exceptions, in those cases you can copy the file from the theme to the child theme folder and modify it from there. For the most part however I have usually been able to make my changes with the 2 main files in the child theme.

In reply to: setting up a child themeTry without the add_action snippet. Like I have above. Make sure there are no spaces before <?php

In reply to: white screen and no solutionhello, today by mistake i removed some code in the wordpress menu editor, i believe that was from header function.php
Do like #Tara said and rename your theme. Once you get back in your dashboard, re-install a fresh copy of your theme and go from there. Editing php files can shut down your site if you don’t know what your doing.
