In reply to: Child theme template problem when filename.php changedAgreed, I could not fail with that amount of detail and source code!
To you both, a massive thumbs up. Thanks for your time!

In reply to: Child theme template problem when filename.php changedMany many thanks for getting back to me!
Can I just ask, why does the template not just use the CSS from the original theme if none of the DIV names have been changed?
I ended up copying EVERYTHING from the original CSS into the styles.css in the child theme and it still did not work?
Not sure why this is happening still? It seems like the CSS link to the correct styling gets lost when I change the file name from side-bar.php to home.php (I remove all the template code so it starts: <?php get_header…) in the child theme. When I change the file name back to side-bar.php the CSS styling is fine?
Wow, don’t remember having this problem with CSS styling on a child theme.I really want to understand this! Sorry guys.

In reply to: Child theme template problem when filename.php changedAddition: is the home.php file a template?
Forum: Themes and Templates
In reply to: Child theme template problem when filename.php changedCheers Abhishek, thanks for your reply.
just a couple of questions if I may, and I know I am missing something basic here so I apologise in advance.
I have created home.php (as a template.php file in the child theme) and chose this page template as my home template page, but where and what should I add to the CSS file?
First off, the home.php is a copy paste job from the side-bar.php which is the template I wish to build on from Twenty Eleven, so the divs and styles already exist in the original twenty eleven theme. I added a slider div and put the properties in the styles.css in the child theme.
But you are right, the main content area is not pulling in the correct styling? I am a little lost.
Anyhelp anyone

In reply to: How to get a post image to link to the post in categories.phpMany thanks!
Forum: Themes and Templates
In reply to: How to show only one categories posts on page?Many thanks to you all for your help, I was by all accounts trying to reinvent the wheel with this post question. I was attempting to write specific category templates that did not need to be written as WordPress (and peredur & digitalnature) and the fantastic theme do this for you!
Ahh! The problem was I was working through some tutorials about calling in specific categories and tried to apply them to Mystique. What a waste of time.
I have a new post about Mystique, but this time it is a real one…

In reply to: How to show only one categories posts on page?I posted the wrong code in my first post! Sorry, was a long day yesterday. Below is correct:
Thanks peredur, I know about creating category lists, it’s just trying to get 4 pages (within Mystique theme) that will display ONLY the category I want them to. The pages need to sit in the main navigation alongside normal pages. I did try “Pages link to” plugin, which was NEARLY perfect. It just didn’t show in the navigation bar that I was actual on that page.
I am pretty sure I need to write a custom category.php for each page template. Can anyone help?
I am pretty new to this…
vtxyzzy,
it does work, many thanks for this! But… the page title (or state) in the navigation bar does not indicate that you are actually on the page. I can’t see that this method of diverting the URL could change that?
You are a star though vtxyzzy, your help has made a great difference to my understanding of WordPress.
Will try another way next…
Hi vtxyzzy,
I looked at this plugin today thanks, but I can’t see how I would use this to achieve what I want to do? It just seems to point the URL of a page some place else, and does not allow me to choose the ONE category I want to show on this page?
I have chose category.php as the page template, but I am thinking I will have to edit this so to allow me to have the four pages showing specific category posts only.
Am I missing something with the “Pages link to” plugin?
Thanks vtxyzzy. alchymyth, will take a look tonight at your solution.
Anyone else?
Hi again vtxyzzy, I am on my iPhone at the moment and just read the plugin description without installing it so I may have misunderstood it’s actual function. I will check tomorrow, and get back to you.
Sorry for my ignorance, your help is always appreciated!
Thanks alchymyth, I read the link and it sounds like this may be a solution? I will try tomorrow and let you know.
If anyone else has a suggestion or links, please pass them on.
Many thanks alchymyth for your time and assistance.
