“and that all the styling adjustments are made in the individual .php files.”
That is incorrect. The styling all comes from the virtue.css file. But you should not edit that file. Use css in your child theme to override the theme style sheet don’t edit the core stylesheet.

Ben,

Thank you for the reply. I’ve now got my child theme set up. I noticed that the style.css sheet in the primary virtue folder is mostly empty, and that all the styling adjustments are made in the individual .php files.

Do you recommend uploading theses same base php files into the child theme folder, or making any formatting changes in the style.css folder of the child theme? Thanks!

Here is the documentation on it:

It would require that you have a child theme so you can write some custom functions. How comfortable are you with that?

Updated through WordPress, no modification in Child Theme.

Adding php will require that you use a child theme and override a template. You would be editing the header.php file and removing the theme call for the menu.

After updating to 2.6.5 today I was surprised to see that all my sidebars and footers were empty. I’m using a Child Theme and WP 4.0, all plugins is up to date. Any idea what happened? No catastrophe, but about 30 minutes job to activate all widgets again in the sidebars.

Hello,

I have the same problem, everything is updated, but I still have the same thing: error message: Votre thème regroupe des fichiers de modèle WooCommerce obsolètes – si vous rencontrez des problèmes de fonctionnalités sur le site, cela peut en être la cause. Assurez-vous de les mettre à jour ou de les supprimer (en général nous recommandons de regrouper uniquement les fichiers de modèle dont vous avez réellement besoin pour la personnalisation). Voir le report système pour plus de détails.

virtue_premium-child/woocommerce/emails/customer-invoice.php version 2.0.0 est obsolète. La version du core est 2.2.0
virtue_premium/woocommerce/loop/orderby.php version 2.0.0 est obsolète. La version du core est 2.2.0
virtue_premium/woocommerce/order/order-details.php version 2.1.0 est obsolète. La version du core est 2.2.0,

I have no longer something to update… So I don’t know what to do.

Thanks a lot,

Laure

I don’t know what to tell you, I would trouble shoot your site, login to the server and file manager, check your wp-login.php file. check for any plguins that might be effecting your login and change the folder name so they will deactivate. If you have any functions in the child theme try turning them off.

Hey,
1. If you plan on editing the theme you should do it through a child theme or your edits will be lost when you update the theme.

Read more here: http://codex.wordpress.org/Child_Themes

And you can download an empty child theme here: https://www.kadencewp.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/02/virtue_premium_child.zip

Suggesting to not work in the appearance > editor is just to help you. If you make an error in a php file it will crash your site and you won’t be able to access the file or undo the error without going through the cpanel or ftp. It’s just much easy if you start by working through ftp.

2. You can do a lot with the theme options and plugins are you sure you need to edit the files?

So I can’t see how this could be a theme issue else you wouldn’t be the only one with the problem. Your using a child theme what is in your child theme? Are you using a plugin that changed your login page?

Thanks for the reply Hannah, I got it figured out. Yes I was trying to display the menu like the link you displayed.

Regarding your comment on the editor, are you just suggesting not to edit the code in the Editor so that I don’t make any changes that would make it very difficult to revert back to my original setup? Or is there another reason for your suggestion?

How exactly would I go about creating a ‘child theme’? Thanks for the input!

Hey Ben,

Would it be possible for you to add a function to the My Account page on your theme?

I was testing out woocommerce and seeing how the ordering process functions in your theme and i noticed that when a purchase is made and you want to view the order you made there are no links back to the account page. just the Edit Account and Log out links below the profile image.

I was thinking a function that changes the “Edit Account” to “View my Account” for pages that are children to the parent My Account page would be useful.

So basically if a customer is at url /my-account/ then the link would remain “Edit Account” but if they went to /my-account/view-order/12345 then it would instead link back to the My Account page rather then only give the option to edit.

Thanks in advance.

Using a custom function either in a child theme or a functions plugin (https://wordpress.org/plugins/custom-functions/) you can override the image with your own:

function my_placement_img() {
$placement = 'http://fulllinktoimg.com/assets/img/placement.jpg';
  return $placement;
}
add_filter('kadence_placeholder_image', 'my_placement_img');

That is right, you’ve activated the child theme and made sure your using the similar carousel not the recent?

Previously I had the standard virtue theme and I was advised to alter the code to stop the product category image cropping but after upgrading to premium child theme my image cropping has returned. Please can you supply the changes I need to make to the code to resolve this *Login to see link

The images should all be square. If this image was larger: http://wetw.net/wp-content/uploads/2014/09/[email protected]

then they would be. If you want to change the aspect ratio then you need to create a child theme and edit the file: virtue_premium/templates/similarblog-carousel.php

You can add this to line 12: $catimgwidth = 266; $catimgheight = 195;

Just download the child theme from one of your other sites and upload it to your new site. Then change the options.
You can download the files through a file manager in your cpanel of your host.

It’s me from http://www.thepoppiessingers.com and http://www.springboardperformingarts.co.uk I’m now moving my yoga site http://www.yogawirral.co.uk to wordpress and want to do the same thing again, adding a banner image to the footer with a link to my email. I thought that if I knew how to add the child theme, I could copy what you did over there to this new site, update the image and email etc. and hopefully save bothering you again!

I understand that the child theme needs to be uploaded like the original and then activated but I don’t know what you mean by it using ‘any template files that you override instead of the parent theme files’ how do I override something and will I end up loosing my settings etc.? thanks

Hey,
First why are you using a child theme? Is it really necessary?

A child theme runs as a separate theme so you can upload right in the appearance > themes section by clicking add new and upload.

Then you activate that theme and it will use any template files you override instead of the parent theme files. If no files are overridden it uses the parent.
