Child Theme not working after the main theme was used for a while

theticus — Wed, 14 Oct 2015 07:03:49 +0000

Hi Thomas,

In one of my sites, I was using wp-forge (didn’t realised at that time, to use child theme wp-starter) and now I want to use the wp-starter but after activated the child theme, design is not the same. Not picking up the recent pages and posts and design etc.

Am i too late in using child theme? Is there a way that I can incorporate current wp-forge with child theme wp-starter? Coz I’m loving the child theme concept. I can’t start from scratch as the site has grown too much.

Hope you can help me…
Waiting in anxious..

Downloaded WP-Forge / Don't see WP- Starter

punchbuggyblue — Sun, 26 Jul 2015 13:04:57 +0000

According to everything I’ve read, I should be able to find WP-starter in the Appearance section under Themes, I see the standard ones, and WP-Forge, but not starter.

Can someone direct me on how to activate Starter on my site, for as long as it’s taking me to find it, I could have setup my own -child by now!

Thanks!
Lisa

WP-Starter

Hi,
Being a complete newbie (so please be patient and kind:-) ) I started building my blog using WP-Forge without (as far as I am aware) using the WP-Starter. This was because in my excited haste I saw the theme – was pleased with it and got on with building it without reading around as much as I ought to have done. Then I found out about child themes and was horrified that I had made such a basic mistake. So, because I am such a beginner I decided to go back to square one and build another blog using the WP-Starter so that I could use the Child Theme approach. I haven’t made to many changes to functions but there is a fair amount of styling changes that I’ve made. So (although I knwo that this may be the hard way of going about it all, I have copied all of the settings off the blog that I have built and went to upload WP-Starter n order to start again – build it and activate it when I had all of the plug ins and settings correct. However, when I go to upload the WP-Starter it says that I already have that theme ! Obviously I am not getting this still and have a lot to learn. I wondered if anyone would be good enough to take me through this step by step.
This is the code at the start of my CSS at the mo. Am I correct in saying that this is the WP-Forge and not the WP-Starter code?

Parent stylesheet loading after child

eSaner — Thu, 30 Apr 2015 20:45:09 +0000

Just a note to other’s that might run into this problem:

I’m using WP-Forge as a parent theme with a customized version of WP-Starter as a child theme. After recently updating WP-Forge I noticed that its stylesheet was loading after the child theme’s stylesheet.

I’m enqueueing the parent theme in functions.php of the child theme as described here: https://codex.www.ads-software.com/Child_Themes. If I also enqueue the child theme stylesheet as a dependency of the parent theme, the child theme stylesheet is loaded twice, once before the parent theme’s and once after.

I traced this to line 212 of functions.php in WP-Forge, where the wpforge_scripts() function calls get_stylesheet_uri(). When a child theme is used, get_stylesheet_uri() will point to the child theme’s stylesheet, instead of the parent theme’s stylesheet. This function is loaded at priority 0, so if you use the function from the WP codex that only enqueues the parent theme as is (without specifying a priority), the default priority of 10 causes the parent theme’s stylesheet to load after the child’s stylesheet.

This is solved by adding a priority of 0 to the function in the child theme’s functions.php that enqueues that parent theme’s styles (child functions.php is loaded before parent). The odd thing about this solution is that when the child theme stylesheet is loaded in the , it’s listed with id=”wpforge-css”, even though it’s not from that theme. There’s also a version number appended to the url that is inaccurate.

Perhaps there’s a better way to fix this, but that was the best I could come up with.
