Full width posts – virtue theme

I appreciate that and know you’re only helping your user. Honest, your support has always been first rate and really good.

But let’s see if we can walk Dddt through it before you get to that step.

You did magic!!!!! Thank you soooooo much for your great help! You are professional, you are kind, you are prompt !

P.S. I more than trust Ben, and if he asks login for my cpanel I will give him!

This topic is closed ?? thanks to Ben!

I’m glad you got it all sorted out. That’s cool and isn’t it great when it works out like that?

P.S. Jan if you have a better way for me to look at what he put in the functions file of his child theme I’m all ears.

Perk your ears up then. ??

That’s easy and always has been. For small code snippets anyone can post using the backtick or code button.

For large code blocks (more than 50 lines is definitely large) any user can use pastebin.com and post that link.

Here’s a mundane example.

It’s just not that hard to walk someone through sharing file contents.

Asking for login access isn’t a new topic and has been discussed before. Give this make/support post a read on that topic.

Support Team Update for February 27th

It’s the part labeled “Code authors jumping straight to requesting admin access” and it really is applicable to theme authors too.

Please note that I am not trying to wind you up or discourage you from supporting your themes here. I’m simply explaining that you do not need login access to resolve a theme issue such as this.

Thanks! This is exactly what I was looking for in terms of that addition to the child theme function file. I appreciate it!

Thanks a lot, this worked a charm for me! ??

Just a note: Make sure to lose
<?php at the beginning and ?> at the end if there’s already code in your child theme’s functions.php, because that messed mine up as i just copy/pasted without checking. ??

add_filter('kadence_display_sidebar', 'kad_sidebar_on_post');
function kad_sidebar_on_post($sidebar) {
  if (is_single()) {
    return false;
  }
  return $sidebar;
}

hi again,
i need to do this for my new website, i copied the function.php and style.css from my old virtue child theme and placed it under the new website’s child theme, but this is not working, what magic did u do last time that worked for my old website, can u help me please?

thanks

Don’t copy the functions.php file, instead make a new empty one in your child theme, it will add to the functions in the theme’s directory. (or override it)

did not help ??

Dddt,
Can you explain? Each post as the option to disabled the sidebar. why not use that?

If you want to override with a function can you post here what is in your functions file?

Kadence Themes

Hi there!
Explaining: the reason is the same, I want to make it possible front-end posting and n=the user will not have access to back-end to change the post settings.

here is the function

<?php add_filter(‘kadence_display_sidebar’, ‘kad_sidebar_on_post’);
function kad_sidebar_on_post($sidebar) {
if (is_single()) {
return false;
}
return $sidebar;
} ?>

That function should work just fine. Your wanting to remove the sidebar right?

Is there anything else in your child theme functions?

Do you have the child theme activated.

Kadence Themes

yes, remove sidebar.

in my fuctions.php only this:

<?php add_filter(‘kadence_display_sidebar’, ‘kad_sidebar_on_post’);
function kad_sidebar_on_post($sidebar) {
if (is_single()) {
return false;
}
return $sidebar;
} ?>

In my child theme I also have style.css

/*
Theme Name: Virtue – Child Theme
Theme URI: https://kadencethemes.com/product/virtue-free-theme/
Version: 1.0
Author: Kadence Themes
Author URI: https://kadencethemes.com/
Template: virtue
*/

/* Theme customization starts here
————————————————————– */

what u mean by child theme activated? how can i check it is active or not?

When you click on appearance > themes is “virtue – child theme” activated.

Can you post a link to the site.

Kadence Themes

When I click appearance-themes I see virtue theme is activated, I cannot find virtue child theme there.

I would not like to post the site here, sorry ??

@dddt, you need to upload your child theme. Go to appearance > themes > add new and upload and activate.
