Thank you for going through the steps for me. I did everything listed above but it’s not working for some reason. I did note that “extensions” was spelled differently in a couple of places and changed that but it didn’t seem to resolve the issue. I see how the child functions.php refers to the child-header-extensions.php file and the parent functions.php file refers to the child-header-extensions.php file but how does the parent functions.php file know where to look for the child-header-extensions.php file. Also, when I perform an upgrade will the parent functions.php file be written over and then I will lose that function? Should we be putting the command to override the header-extensions.php in the child functions.php file instead maybe? Wish I was better at this php stuff. I am so appreciative of your help Ayman!

Thank you again Ayman, you have been a tremendous help. Please forgive me, since the functions.php file is a little different I want to be sure I am placing everything in the correct spot.

So, in the child functions.php file I place the following code:

<?php
function get_child_header_extentions {
    require_once( get_stylesheet_directory(). '/child-header-extensions.php' );
}
?>'

Then, in the parent functions.php file I place the following code under the "Load Structure":

require_once( ATTITUDE_STRUCTURE_DIR . ‘/child-header-extensions.php’ );
if (!function_exists(‘get_child_header_extentions’) ){
require_once( ATTITUDE_STRUCTURE_DIR . ‘/header-extensions.php’ );
}`

Replacing the portion where I tried to add the child-header-extentions require_once command.

Then I place the child-header-extensions.php file in the folder where the original header-extensions.php file is stored so that it will be recognized by the parent function.php file structure. Is all of that correct? I tried it and it’s not working for me but I am clearly no php expert so I may be confused.

Thank you again for your help!

Thanks for your help Ayman! That all makes prefect sense. The only thing I am not sure how to incorporate is the last part about calling the child-header-extensions.php file because this theme has load files functions set up (please see code below):

How do I incorporate the if (!function_exists('get_child_header_extensions') portion into this?

Thank you again for your help!

Update: I tried adding a link within the uploaded image settings where I had left it blank before and that resolved it. My apologies for not trying that first.

Resolved.

Thank you Rabin!

Thank you for your help James,

Here it is:

<?php
/**
 * Displays the page section of the theme.
 *
 * @package Theme Horse
 * @subpackage Attitude
 * @since Attitude 1.0
 */
?>

<?php get_header(); ?>

<?php
	/**
	 * attitude_before_main_container hook
	 */
	do_action( 'attitude_before_main_container' );
?>

<div id="container">
	<?php
		/**
		 * attitude_main_container hook
		 *
		 * HOOKED_FUNCTION_NAME PRIORITY
		 *
		 * attitude_content 10
		 */
		do_action( 'attitude_main_container' );
	?>
</div><!-- #container -->

<?php
	/**
	 * attitude_after_main_container hook
	 */
	do_action( 'attitude_after_main_container' );
?>

<?php get_footer(); ?>

Thank you for this Rabin. it works in Chrome and Firefox, however, as usual IE doesn’t react the same. For me, it causes the image I have placed in the custom header to fall behind the menu in IE9 compatibility view only. In IE9 view shows just fine. It could be the other way around. I can’t tell if blue means on or off. Any idea how to resolve this. I really like this theme and would like to use it in combination with my custom header. Thanks!

My apologies, I should have been more clear. I was speaking of the entire menu. No matter where I place the recommended code:

<?php /* Widgetized sidebar */
if ( !function_exists(‘dynamic_sidebar’) || !dynamic_sidebar(‘my_mega_menu’) ) : ?><?php endif; ?>

in the header.php file, it either places the menu below the slider or at the top of the page and leaves the primary navigation as is.

Thanks for your help!

I have attempted the fix provided by jasonpaulweber and can almost get this working but not quite. It places it on the page but in the incorrect spot, no matter where I place the code. I am using the attitude theme. Does anyone know where I would place this code to replace the main menu for that theme? I have a slider and it either wants to place the menu at the top of the page or below the slider.

Thanks for making removing these SO easy. I have stumbled across support forums that make it MUCH more complicated.
