And as you can see from the theme we personally do not edit the Bootstrap.css but copy what we need to adjust/change over to the custom.css and do our edits there. * Creating a child theme is not that hard, just follow the instructions here: [http://codex.wordpress.org/Child_Themes](http://codex.wordpress.org/Child_Themes) and you are on your way. * Simple steps: 1) Create a folder named strapvert-child 2) Copy style.css from main theme and add to your folder then add the following just underneath the Version number: Template: strapvert 3) Go in to the css folder, open bootstrap. css and copy everything in to your new style.css 4) Open custom.css and copy everything and paste right at the bottom of your style.css * Now you can edit anything and everything to your hearts content 🙂 * But….Do all your editing/modification on a production server and not the live. Once you are happy with your changes upload your child theme and activate and enjoy your handy work 🙂 * Forum: [Themes and Templates](https://wordpress.org/support/forum/themes-and-templates/) In reply to: [[StrapVert] Server Error](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/server-error-44/) * [WP Strap Code](https://wordpress.org/support/users/wpstrapcode/) * (@wpstrapcode) * [12 years, 10 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/server-error-44/#post-4101030) * Please use the latest version of the theme i.e version 1.0.7 which fixed that error from version 1.0.6. * P.S. And what exactly did you edit in CSS? Use a child theme for any edits and do not edit the main theme at all! * Forum: [Themes and Templates](https://wordpress.org/support/forum/themes-and-templates/) In reply to: [[StrapVert] Theme Width](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/theme-width-5/) * [WP Strap Code](https://wordpress.org/support/users/wpstrapcode/) * (@wpstrapcode) * [12 years, 10 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/theme-width-5/#post-4101020) * That will require a knowledge of at lease CSS coding. And the first thing to do will be to create a child theme with at least a style.css in it. * Note that this is a Bootstrap based theme and the width is governed by the container element which is set at 940px. You can start by copying that in to your child theme and then adjusting to your needs. * You must also consider that there [@media](https://wordpress.org/support/users/media/) factors at play to so you’ll need to look at those and adjust for your needs. * Hope that helps to get you started 🙂 * P.S. I believe the other topic is now resolve – if you could kindly mark it as such will appreciate it 🙂 * Forum: [Themes and Templates](https://wordpress.org/support/forum/themes-and-templates/) In reply to: [[StrapVert] Static Pages are not showing up](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/static-pages-are-not-showing-up/) * [WP Strap Code](https://wordpress.org/support/users/wpstrapcode/) * (@wpstrapcode) * [12 years, 10 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/static-pages-are-not-showing-up/#post-4101018) * Sir, this has been the case for a while and its a WordPress thing and not a theme thing. * Under Appearance > > Menus you have to create a menu group then from the left pane you have to select the pages (by checking the box) you want in that menu group. Then save and at the bottom you will see the options to add that group to the location in the theme – you then check the box and save again and your pages designated to that menu group and linked to that menu location will show up in the menu bar. * If however you had already created a menu group before them all you have to do is go in to Appearance >> Customizer and last from the bottom you’ll see the Navigation bar. Click on it to open it and in the dropdown select your menu. Once again save and view your site and you should see the menu items. * Forum: [Themes and Templates](https://wordpress.org/support/forum/themes-and-templates/) In reply to: [[StrapVert] Static Pages are not showing up](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/static-pages-are-not-showing-up/) * [WP Strap Code](https://wordpress.org/support/users/wpstrapcode/) * (@wpstrapcode) * [12 years, 10 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/static-pages-are-not-showing-up/#post-4101016) * You have to create menu items of your pages and allocate those to the menu location as instructed above. When you’ve done that your pages will appear just like in the demo 🙂 * Forum: [Themes and Templates](https://wordpress.org/support/forum/themes-and-templates/) In reply to: [[StrapVert] Static Pages are not showing up](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/static-pages-are-not-showing-up/) * [WP Strap Code](https://wordpress.org/support/users/wpstrapcode/) * (@wpstrapcode) * [12 years, 10 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/static-pages-are-not-showing-up/#post-4101009) * By static pages I assume you mean the menu right? * First of all you need to create your menus under Appearance >> Menus. Then you can add the menu to the menu location by checking the box at the bottom of that page. * If however you have already created your menu then navigate to the Customizer and allocate the menu to the designated menu location under the Navigation section. * Hope that helps. * Forum: [Reviews](https://wordpress.org/support/forum/reviews/) In reply to: [[StrapVert] Parse Error](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/parse-error-204/) * [WP Strap Code](https://wordpress.org/support/users/wpstrapcode/) * (@wpstrapcode) * [12 years, 10 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/parse-error-204/#post-7785538) * Can I kindly ask you to post any issues in the support forum here: [http://wordpress.org/support/theme/strapvert](http://wordpress.org/support/theme/strapvert) where they can be picked up much quicker and a fix released. * Unfortunately the review section’s post are not fed to the forum so its not until we take a look over here that we become aware of the issues. * The function that caused the error required PHP version 5.3 or higher and that error only occurs on servers running at PHP 5.2 or lower. * As of version 1.0.5 of the theme we have removed the function for the time being until the majority of the hosting companies switch to PHP 5.3 – the theme has been approved and should be live soon. In the meantime you can get a copy from here: [http://wordpress.org/themes/strapvert/developers/](http://wordpress.org/themes/strapvert/developers/) * As with everything else to do with installing or upgrading WordPress core, themes or plugins the advice is to always backup your database first – and you should always test themes and plugins on a staging install before committing to alive site. * Forum: [Reviews](https://wordpress.org/support/forum/reviews/) In reply to: [[StrapVert] Crashed the site](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/crashed-the-site-1/) * [WP Strap Code](https://wordpress.org/support/users/wpstrapcode/) * (@wpstrapcode) * [12 years, 10 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/crashed-the-site-1/#post-7788235) * That is because your hosting is running on PHP 5.2 or lower – you should ask your hosting company to upgrade you to the latest version or up to at least version 5.3 * EDIT: As of version 1.0.5 of the theme we are using a function that will run on PHP 5.2 which fixes the bug. * Forum: [Themes and Templates](https://wordpress.org/support/forum/themes-and-templates/) In reply to: [[StrapVert] strap vert error](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/strap-vert-error/) * [WP Strap Code](https://wordpress.org/support/users/wpstrapcode/) * (@wpstrapcode) * [12 years, 10 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/strap-vert-error/#post-4083535) * > SO I cannot access anything > What should I try next? * Problem is with your server’s PHP version which is most likely to be 5.2 or below. * Theme requires PHP 5.3 and above – making a note in a revised version to the effect. * Forum: [Themes and Templates](https://wordpress.org/support/forum/themes-and-templates/) In reply to: [[StrapVert] strap vert error](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/strap-vert-error/) * [WP Strap Code](https://wordpress.org/support/users/wpstrapcode/) * (@wpstrapcode) * [12 years, 10 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/strap-vert-error/#post-4083523) * If the theme has been deleted from the server and you are still getting the error then it sounds like there’s a plugin conflict. * Do you have access to the Admin area? If not then via FTP could you rename the plugins directory and then see if can gain access to the site. * If you could also let me know what plugins you have activated so I can take a closer look and fix any conflicts and/or bugs.
