In reply to: [Rookie] Help with Child ThemeSavvas
Here’s how I did the site, which was a mistake from the beginning:
- I initially used the Rookie theme. (All good there)
- I made color and style changes to the Rookie theme. I did not use a child theme, which I should have.
- I then saved Rookie (with changes) as my OWN theme, with me as the publisher, which WordPress will not update because it is technically NOT a WordPress theme anymore. It’s technically my own, custom there. And if updates were made, it would wipe out any customizations I made.
Now, WordPress is switching to php 8.1, and my site won’t work with 8.1 because MY theme has not been automatically updated, because it’s not a WordPress theme. It’s 99% based on one, but it’s technically not.
So, I’m trying to find a way – without manually going through all the code and changes – to set MY theme up as an actual child theme to Rookie to avoid issues in the future.

I never made a child theme to begin with. I had changed the original Rookie Theme. Then I made that “my own” theme and am using that. It’s as if I copied and pasted the original and just used he copied version. So my version, while based on Rookie, is not set up as a child theme.
So, when WordPress does updates to the original Rookie theme, it doesn’t do them to mine.

I should add that when I change the number of posts to show, to make it smaller, more recent posts appear. The larger I make it, the newer ones disappear. If I go up to 100, no posts appear.

In reply to: [Rookie] How do I change caption styleYes, here’s a link: The caption under the featured image at the top of the photo I would like to be italic to distinguish from the rest of the text in the story.

In reply to: [Rookie] Need Post Title Above Featured Image, Caption to showSorry, that should be Single Post (single.php) …. not single Page

In reply to: [Rookie] Need Post Title Above Featured Image, Caption to showHi
In trying to go back to original settings, i accidentally copied the coding in the Theme Editor for content-single.php over Single Page (page.php)
Can I get the coding for Single Page (page.php) for this Rookie Theme?
Now my blog posts are displaying without the rest of the page and in plain text!
