    Hello! I am curious how to get rid of the browser tab divider. For example go to

    In the browser tab it says TT Starter Kit and then has a divider. How do I get rid of that? Thanks in advance!

  • Hi thriftytraveler. The tab text is created by the Wp function “wp_title”. Here is the Codex reference with an example of a function that you could add to a child theme functions.php file to modify the output.

    Thanks for responding. Is there no way to modify it through the CSS editor plugin? Sorry I apologize but I have avoided the child themes by using the CSS editor so far.

    The theme css doesn’t have access to the browser tab. Creating a child theme with Hueman is pretty easy:
    1. In Theme Options click the Help tab in the upper righthand corner.
    2. One of the options in the list is to download a sample child theme. This downloads the theme zip file to your local computer.
    3. Install the new theme in your Admin panel by selecting Add New > Upload Theme > Choose File, then select the zip file you downloaded.
    4. Activate the child theme.
    You’ll now have a pre-configured child theme with a style.css file and functions.php file to which you can add customizations.

    When I activate the child theme it removes my menus and changes quite a few things. Do I then go back and activate the old theme? I’m a little lost.

    Nothing should change when you activate the child theme. The new child theme doesn’t contain any code to make any changes. Whatever you had active in the original Hueman theme will still be active when you enable the child theme. Then only time things change is when you make modifications in your child theme style.css, functions.php or theme files that you’ve copied to your child theme. What happens if you re-activate the original Hueman theme?

    I have went back and forth and the child theme has all my posts but no menus or widgets. Does the CSS editor have anything to do with this or the version of the child theme?

    As always I really do appreciate your help!

    My prior widgets don’t show up in the new child theme and not where they should be in the widget menu.

    My menu structure is active but it does not show up in the child theme. So odd.

    Activating the child theme should have no affect on any of those things. Are you saying that, if you activate the child theme, and then go to your web site, there are no menus or widgets displayed?

    I’m afraid that is correct. I have not modified anything except using the CSS Editor.

    The Child Theme is 1.0 and the normal theme is 2.2.2. Doesn’t that explain it?

    So what I’m seeing now is the default theme on your site? If so, can you activate the child theme for 5 minutes so I can see that?

    Yes that was default and I’ve now put the child theme on. I changed the setting in the child theme to now show the menu. The widgets are not setup though.

    ok, thanks. That’s very strange. You said:

    I changed the setting in the child theme to now show the menu.

    Does that mean you had to recreate the menus from scratch?

    Thread Starter thriftytraveler

    (@thriftytraveler)

    No it just was not selected as the menu. Very odd. Again can’t this be traced to the fact that I’m using 2.2.2 and the Child Theme is 1.0.0??

    No. Again, the child theme has no affect (at least, it’s not supposed to have any) on the site unless you make changes to the files in the child theme. If the basic WP settings have changed (i.e., the menu wasn’t selected, the widgets aren’t in the sidebar) then there is something else going on. Maybe a plugin or some other utility that was somehow tied to the main theme. I don’t know; don’t think I’ve ever seen this issue.
