I have created a child theme and that went well. I have altered style and theme.json and I have added functions and screenshot. And now I am confused… very:

1. I have a lot of wrong or missing headers/footers that I initially set up in TT4 as template parts. They are gone. I have manually reapplied my header with some struggle to front and all templates. Footer WILL NOT SHOW on my front page or my woo shop page even though I see them in editor. For front page also blog query is gone. Why? I have this in index template.
2. Fonts: Almost everything shows in Cardo font. Also paragraphs on large screen. This is a child of TT4 so completely not as natively designed. And where it gets really awkward is that on mobile everything show in inter font? Does child theme not inherit styles from TT4 until I restyle in settings or child theme.json? This is very unclear to me, so please elaborate. Also I am preparing for this to work for future wp themes such as TT5, so as little manual intervention as possible is what I am looking for. I will post my child theme.json below, since I have wonders there.
3. theme.json: Can I have a version 3 under a TT4 version 2? Do I need to copy all content from TT4 into child theme.json? Or will the child run from the TT4 t.j and then I can add own variables and overwrite tt4 core, such as buttons fx?

I have this in index template:

<!-- wp:template-part {"slug":"footer","area":"footer"} /-->

and this in original TT4 index:

<!-- wp:template-part {"slug":"footer","area":"footer","tagName":"footer"} /-->

Why the difference? Where can I find slug to my footer? that is a template part and why is it not updated here, since I create a child from TT4 where this was correct? Why can I not see it when I see it in editor?

My current theme.json child is like so:

1. I am confused about the brackets. Some are square some are curly. Why? These are copy paste.
2. Is it correct that first lines of stuff ends with comma and that last one does not feature a comma?
3. Lines I have here, that also exist in parent t.j will overwrite and take presedence? Is that correct? So changing black to white, then white it is. So changing core button will restyle across the site, regardless of what’s in parent theme? Also I can here create custom styles and setting, such as add a color blue to the already existing TT4 palette.
4. Is it fair to assume that this will also work for TT5

Functions:
I am adding this to my functions cause I read in manuals I must. Why does WP themes not handle this default and is code correct?

/**
 * Theme WordPress default does not enque the mother theme, when creating a child,
 * hence, we call both the child as well as the mother themes
 */

 add_action( 'wp_enqueue_scripts', 'draupnir_9_enqueue_styles' );

function draupnir_9_enqueue_styles() {
	wp_enqueue_style( 
		'draupnir-9-parent-style', 
		get_parent_theme_file_uri( 'style.css' )
	);
}

Thx – I need help, please

I have setup a child theme for my TT4 install.

1. When switching to it I see the default TT4 site. How do I bring my stuff over to the child? Assuming this get’s done, are there things to consider for future TT5, TT6 upgrades. I need something more specific than the manual, cause this remains unclear. In addition, in TT4 I have sort of customised default templates, so that those contain my stuff. Note I will also need my patterns and pattern part. My frontpage is also the customised default. Do I duplicate over in tt4 and rename and make this front before copy/paste?
2. Also I am not hundred how to get around “theme.json” in child structure. Do I just create theme.json under “child-theme” folder and then WP will grab it all in priority where my customisation overrules WP? I am trying to do customisation and in particular restyle button block and core button. Will I need to declare custom templates, patterns and pattern parts? Will default WP stuff show alongside or do I need to port those also?
3. As I understand, functions.php will not overwrite the mother functions.php from tt4, and I can port snippets from Code Snippets into this file provided the open tag is there. What I also understand is that WP themes do not enque functions.php so I include this in functions child (Please confirm mid lines and bottom lines are supposed to switch location like so):

add_action( 'wp_enqueue_scripts', 'draupnir_enqueue_styles' );

function draupnir_enqueue_styles() {
	wp_enqueue_style( 
		'draupnir-parent-style', 
		get_parent_theme_file_uri( 'style.css' )
	);
}

thx

First of all, thank you so much for giving this brilliant theme away for free.

Now… I have installed both the main BOYO theme and the Child theme, which I have installed. But I was wondering which file do I need to alter in the Child theme, to show Google font Alice?

Peace be with you.
Mike.

You can learn more about child themes here.

HOW TO INSTALL
MonoWP Child Theme can be installed normally like any other third-party theme:

1. After you have installed MonoWP, download the child theme zip file from here.
2. Visit your site’s dashboard and navigate to?Appearance →?Themes.
3. Click the?“Add New Theme”?button in the top left corner then click the “Upload Theme” button.
4. Locate the downloaded theme zip file and upload it, then click the “Install Now” button.
5. Click “Activate” link to apply the theme to your live site.

CUSTOMISATIONS
You have the option to overwrite any template, part, or pattern that exists in MonoWP by adding a file of the same name in MonoWP Child Theme (patterns must also have the same registered?slug?field). Of course, you can also add brand new templates, parts, and patterns to MonoWP Child Theme, even if they don’t exist in MonoWP.

You can also add your own custom code to theme.json, style.css and functions.php files, by going to Tools →?Theme File Editor.

I am using PHP 5.6.36 with WP 6.2.4

Thanks!

I’m reaching out to report an issue I encountered after performing an update on my WordPress website. Specifically, I am unable to add new categories or tags within my child theme.

The problem occurs when attempting to add a new category or tag. After clicking the “Add New” button, the spinner icon appears and continues spinning indefinitely. However, upon refreshing the page, I can see that the item has indeed been added successfully.

It’s worth noting that when I switch to the parent theme, this issue doesn’t occur, and I can add categories and tags without any problems. This suggests that the problem may be related to the child theme itself.

Thank you for your prompt attention to this matter. I look forward to your prompt response and resolution.

Thank you for any clarification.
