1. Creating a normal child-theme means I lose all the layout, what files need to be copied over to the child theme? 2. Move side bar to the right hand side. how is this done? 3. Using option-tree on other pages. Can this be done? 4. Links in the footer text - I need to add links to a privacy policy & terms & conditions.
Hello, 1. If you are facing difficulty while creating child theme then kindly follow the steps mentioned in this Child theme tutorial link: http://www.inkthemes.com/wordpress-child-theme/ 2. Yes, It is possible but require a source code customization, let me know if you wish to do and send your following details: This Thread Link: Your Website URL: WordPress Username: WordPress Password: Send this information on our email at [email protected] 3. If you could elaborate more what exactly you wish to perform on other pages using option tree, so that I can assis you accordingly. 4. If you wish to apply Links in the footer text then you need to apply the following code: Code: <a href="<?php echo esc_url( 'www.google.com' ); ?>"><?php echo ot_get_option('footer_text'); ?></a> Where to include the above code kindly refer the image below: Hope it will solve your issues
Ok so probably in another 6 months when I've finished my php course I might be able to figure this out myself, but at the moment my personal website is on hold while I figure the changes I need to this theme. Thank you for coming back so promptly. #1 Child Theme: Below is a screen shot of my child theme. I've done a few wordpress websites now all using child themes, but this is my first with an InkTheme theme. So this is after applying both what I know & using your supplied info (thank you). I really don't want to do any more changes in the Parent Foogo theme as there are a few changes I'd like to make but for some reason the layout & css is not pulling through to the child theme #2 Side Bar: the website is http://marketingleap.net/ are the side bar changes in a php file? If so could you let me know of the code as I am starting to learn php now that would be great #3 I'd like to have different images in the header & like the idea of having similar animated options & possibly using the 'paralax' section for testimonials or even using the options tree for other pages. I guess that means different page templates have to be used? #4 Links in the footer, this code changes the marketingleap.net to a link (thank you), however I need to add a "privacy policy" & "terms & conditions" to the footer. Previous code I have used is in the functions.php: //displays custom credits in the footer// add_filter('tc_credits_display', 'my_custom_credits'); function my_custom_credits(){ $credits = '<a href="http://www.marketingleap.net/">Developed By Marketing Leap</a>'; $newline_credits = '<a href="http://www.marketingleap.net/privacy-policy">Our Privacy Policy</a>'; $newline_credits1 = '<a href="http://www.marketingleap.net/terms-conditions">Our Site\'s Terms & Conditions</a>'; $newline_credits2 = '<a href="mailto:[email protected]">Contact Marketing Leap</a>'; return ' <div class="span4 credits"> <p> · © '.esc_attr( date( 'Y' ) ).' <a href="'.esc_url( home_url() ).'" title="'.esc_attr(get_bloginfo()).'" rel="bookmark">'.esc_attr(get_bloginfo()).'</a> · '.($credits ? $credits : 'Developed by <a href="http://www.marketingleap.net/">Marketing Leap</a>').' ·'.($newline_credits ? '<br />· '.$newline_credits : ''). ' · ' .($newline_credits1 ? $newline_credits1 : '').' ·'.($newline_credits2 ? '<br />· '.$newline_credits2.' ·' : '').'</p> </div>'; } Look forward to hearing from you.
Hello, 1. The website that you have provided, is in maintenance mode I suppose, so I am unable to check the changes that you have done. 2. For sidebar changes yes you need to do changes in PHP files of the source code. Like page.php, single.php etc. Like for example in page.php: if you need to move sidebar to the right then follow the steps: Similar steps you need to perform in single.php, tp-blog.php file for blog post. Also for links in the footer area, does the code worked that I have provided. Sorry, I am not clear with the footer thing whether that issue got fixed or not. Let me know.
Sameer you are a legend! Thank you. My site is now live & I already have a client who likes the Foogo theme on my site so much she wants to have hers redesigned now . The footer issue, I have the website name as a link now, however I need to add the following links to the footer i.e. Privacy Policy, Site Terms & Conditions & a mailto - Email Contact as per below: <a href="http://www.marketingleap.net/privacy-policy">Our Privacy Policy</a>'; <a href="http://www.marketingleap.net/terms-conditions">Our Site\'s Terms & Conditions</a>'; <a href="mailto:[email protected]">Contact Marketing Leap</a>';
Hello, Marketingleap! Please write/paste the code given below in Appearance -> Theme Options -> Footer Settings -> Footer Text of your dashboard. PHP: <ul class="footer_links"><li><a href="http://www.marketingleap.net/privacy-policy">Our Privacy Policy</a></li> | <li> <a href="http://www.marketingleap.net/terms-conditions">Our Site's Terms & Conditions</a></li> | <li> <a href="mailto:[email protected]">Contact Marketing Leap</a></li></ul> Now, paste the code given below in Custom CSS section (Appearance -> Theme Options -> Styling Options -> Custom CSS) of your dashboard. Code: ul.footer_links { list-style: none; } ul.footer_links li { display: inline-block; } Thanks, Praveen
Thanks Praveen, I didn't realise I could use html in that box. Perfect thank you! Ok so back to other questions: #1 Using option-tree on other pages. Can this be done? #2 I'd like to have different images in the header & like the idea of having similar animated options & possibly using the option tree 'parallax' section for testimonials or even using the options tree for other pages. I guess that means different page templates have to be used? #3 Finally, I'm doing a lot of changes in the parent theme & want to create a child theme moreso for best practices. However, when I create a child theme, I lose all the option tree layout on the front page. As per the attached screen shot? I'm used to using FTP so can access files that way as well? Any help there? I've got to say your support is amazing guys, I'm really impressed. Thanks!
