• Hi!

    I have a travel blog with the Olsen Light Child theme.

    Basically I was trying to find a way to disable the sidebar on some posts & I downloaded the Code Snippets plugin which ended up crashing my site when I tried to put code in it. I contacted Bluehost & they disabled all the plugins so I could go back in.

    I reactivated them and everything is there except now the child theme is fully broken and I have no clue why or how to fix it, there’s quite a bit of custom code in it so I’d prefer not to start from scratch as I’m not the most WordPress savvy person out there.

    The person at Bluehost can’t do anything to fix it and said to contact the theme makers – not sure if this is the right place??

    Thanks so much for any help!

  • Hi there,
    Thank you for using Olsen Light. Currently your site seems broken I am afraid, So can you please check for plugin conflicts https://www.cssigniter.com/kb/checking-for-plugin-conflicts/
    Disabling sidebar is easy and you will not a third party plugin. First check how to get post ID like described here https://www.cssigniter.com/kb/how-to-find-the-post-id/
    Then add this

    .postid-XXX #site-content .col-lg-4 {display:none;}
    .postid-XXX #site-content .col-lg-8 {flex:0 0 100%;max-width:100%;width:100%;} 

    in your custom css box under Customize->Additional CSS for each post you want to hide the sidebar and replace XXX with your post ID like described in the above post.

    Let me know how I can help out more

    Hi!

    Thank so much for getting back to me, I deactivated all the plugins and the site is still broken. Is it possible that something is wrong with the Child theme?

    Hi there,
    probably, please switch to the Parent theme to make sure everything works. Then remove the child theme and create a new one https://www.cssigniter.com/kb/creating-a-child-theme/

    Hi

    I’m going through the process of reinstalling the child theme with the child theme configurator plugin.

    I analyzed it to check it was suitable for a child theme and this came up:

    The theme “Olsen Light” generated unexpected PHP debug output.

    Notice:  Constant WP_CRON_LOCK_TIMEOUT already defined in /home3/chasipe8/public_html/wp-config.php on line 91
    
    Notice:  Constant AUTOSAVE_INTERVAL already defined in /home3/chasipe8/public_html/wp-config.php on line 92
    
    Notice:  Constant WP_POST_REVISIONS already defined in /home3/chasipe8/public_html/wp-config.php on line 93
    
    Notice:  Constant EMPTY_TRASH_DAYS already defined in /home3/chasipe8/public_html/wp-config.php on line 94

    The WordPress configuration file has been modified incorrectly. Please see this FAQ for more information.

    It said to copy & paste the text to the developers of the theme!

    Hi there,
    this is not related to the theme. Please disable notices https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YFSAWMGtCBo in your installation
