Hi, could you please tell me what you changed the file permissions to? I’m having this problem as well and can’t find the correct cache permissions to use.

Many thanks ??

I love Foobox, but the inability to turn off captions is frustrating me to the point that I am considering moving away from it. I tried the above CSS without success. There is a screen shot in the documentation that shows a check button to turn captions off, but it is not shown in my admin panel. I wish this problem could be resolved.

Hi, I’m new to contact form 7. I don’t understand how find the CSS in the theme’s stylesheet. Grateful for your help.

Thanks Christine – I do appreciate your help very much. I have decided that it may be easier to use BackupBuddy and do a fresh installation and start over. Many thanks for your input and advice.

Thanks Christine,

Many thanks, that sounds great, but if it’s OK I have two questions:

1. In php/myadmin, I am confused by the difference between option-name and option-value. I can change the option_name to https://7five7.com.au/motocross, but I can’t figure out how to change the option_value (does this need to change as well as the option_name?)

2. When I modify line 7 in index.php – should that file remain in the motocross directory, or do I need to copy it into the domain root and make the modification there?

Thank you for your help!

The files are in the “motocross” subdirectory

The instructions said to only change the site address, but I followed your advice, and also changed the wordpress address. I got another error, and now all the CSS from the site is missing, and I can’t log into the admin panel… going from bad to worse I’m afraid

Hi, thank you – I had totally misunderstood the plugin’s function, sorry about that. It looks perfect for the job that you have described, and I’ll remember it for future. Many thanks.

The best place to go is the StudioPress support forums. They have full documentation on how to set up each of their child themes. It is likely that they are employing a plugin such as WP-Cycle or Dynamic Content Gallery to display the slideshow in the Corporate theme.

I have found a solution, but not sure if it is very efficient – seems to work though. This code added to my child theme changes the background color of the menu bar to white, the page links to black, and the active page link to red…

#access {
background: #ffffff;
display: block;
float: left;
margin: 0 auto;
width: 940px;
}

#access a {
color: #000;
display: block;
line-height: 38px;
padding: 0 10px;
text-decoration: none;
}

#access ul li.current_page_item > a,
#access ul li.current-menu-ancestor > a,
#access ul li.current-menu-item > a,
#access ul li.current-menu-parent > a {
color: red;
}

Hi, I tried Gisha James’solution to changing nav bar colours but could not get it to work. It seems very logical and easy but doesn’t work. Does anyone have any other ideas? Thanks, Tim

Hi daitya, sorry for the delay in replying. The error that I am getting when trying to log in to the admin panel is this:

Warning: Cannot modify header information – headers already sent by (output started at /home/directory info in here/wp-content/themes/twentytenchild/functions.php:1) in /home/directory info in here/wp-includes/pluggable.php on line 897

It does appear on a white screen – not sure if that is TWOD.

Thanks for the tips on blanks and typos, I will check
the code – although it should be OK as I copied it directly from the parent theme (as demonstrated by trivum in the above example. Thanks also for the link to David Cox’s solution – I will explore that also.

Hi, I’ve been having the same problem as trivum – wanting to change the size of my header in Twentyten. I followed the steps above and created a functions.php file with the exact same code (but with my own header dimensions) and uploaded it to my child theme folder via ftp. I previewed the result in my browser and it looked perfect, but then when I went to log in to my WordPress admin I was blocked out by an error message saying that the functions were coming from the parent theme. When I deleted the new functions.php file from the child theme, I was allowed back in to my admin panel, but, of course, the header reverted back to the original default size. I can change the size in the parent functions.php file, and it works fine. But I would rather have a fully functioning child theme, as this would seem to be optimal best practice – any thoughts on this (I wish I could work it out too!)

I have noticed a site that provides free downloads of Genesis. I am confused as to how a “Premium” theme can be offered for free download. Is this not against licensing laws?

My plugin does not work. I have successfully installed the My Page Order plugin and activated it. I have used the drag and drop window to order all of my pages. In the ‘my page order’ admin all the pages are in the correct order, but on my blog they remain unchanged and appear alphabetically. The old WordPress page order function in the widget section worked beautifully and I am at a loss to understand why it is no longer used. No plugin was required. The present page order function (which is described as “a bit janky” by the WordPress team) does not do anything.
