Child Theme Has Two Sidebar Menus

Are you able to provide a link to your site so I can take a look directly?

As a temporary test, try removing functions.php and adding this to your stylesheet, to make sure your child theme is activated correctly:

@import url("../bushwick/style.css");

This is the functions.php child theme method that works for me:

<?php
function bushwick_child_enqueue_child() {
	wp_register_style( 'bushwick', get_template_directory_uri() . '/style.css' );
	wp_enqueue_style( 'bushwick-child', get_stylesheet_uri(), array( 'bushwick' ) );
}
add_action( 'wp_enqueue_scripts', 'bushwick_child_enqueue_child' );

I think the code you used was just example code, not referencing a real theme folder.

Thanks for your help.

I’ve tried changing the code to that suggested in your more recent post, and it seems to be doing the same thing. I’m not sure why there are 2 menu bars showing up.

Please take a look when you have a chance:

Looks like you may have two stylesheets in your child theme – could you navigate via FTP and remove the one you don’t need?

When I enter the chile-theme folder, there are only 2 files:
– functions.php
– style.css

I can’t seem to find a second style.css.

When I inspect the website using Chrome’s inspector, I’ve noticed that the two menu links have different code associated in the css. Could this be the cause of the double-up?

Thanks

Additionally, I have the following css in my stylesheet of the child theme in order to change the colours (could this be causing the double-up?):

.navigation-main .current_page_item > a,
.navigation-main .current-menu-item > a {
	color: #421b0a;
}

.menu-toggle,
.navigation-main .widget-handle {
	color: #9e231c;
	display: block;
	float: right;
	width: 1.3rem;
}

.menu-toggle:before:hover,
.toggled .menu-toggle,
.navigation-main .widget-handle:hover:before,
.navigation-main .widget-handle.open:before {
	color: #E59502;
}

Hi there – looks like your site is now private so I’m not able to look further. Would it be possible to create a zip file of your child theme, upload it somewhere, and link to it here so I can take a look?

Hi, sorry to bring up an old post.

I had the same problem too using the basic template for creating the child theme. Upon inspecting on chrome:
.menu-toggle {display:none;}
is being overwritten by
.genericon {display:inline-block;}
caused by this line within navigation.php
<h1 class="menu-toggle genericon"></h1>

I’m not sure what is the cause for this to happen only on the child theme, but as a temporary measure, copy the php file over to the child theme folder and remove the genericon class from that line so that the icon only appear once.

dogessence – could please start a new thread for your issue, thanks:

Please see this thread for updates on this issue:

https://www.ads-software.com/support/topic/follow-up-to-child-theme-has-two-sidebar-menus

We’ve found a solution for the double-hamburger (menu toggle) issue in child themes using the stylesheet enqueuing method.

In the last line of your function, add a priority 11 before the closing bracket, so if you had this before:

add_action( 'wp_enqueue_scripts', 'bushwick_child_enqueue_child' );

…change it to this:

add_action( 'wp_enqueue_scripts', 'bushwick_child_enqueue_child', 11 );

We’ve also implemented a fix within the theme itself so this won’t be necessary in the future. It will be in the next version of the theme.

Let me know if adding 11 works for everyone.

Hi, I’m not sure if I can still ask question on this thread any more but can you help me with the two side bar showing up on my site Thanks! https://www.pamperurselfgreen.com

here’s what I put in functions.php

<?php
function weaver_xtreme_child_enqueue_child() {
wp_register_style( ‘weaver-xtreme’, get_template_directory_uri() . ‘/style.css’ );
wp_enqueue_style( ‘weaver-xtreme-child’, get_stylesheet_uri(), array( ‘weaver-xtreme’ ) );
}
add_action( ‘wp_enqueue_scripts’, ‘weaver_xtreme_child_enqueue_child’,11 );}

?>

and in the style.css

About style.css:

Traditionally, a child theme provides its own style.css to override or extend the
parent style.css. This usually involved adding an “@import” to the child’s style.css.

Weaver Xtreme handles the main style sheet differently. It is called “assets/css/style.weaverx.css”,
and is loaded before the theme “style.css” file. Thus, there is no need to “@import” the
parent stylesheet.

So you can make overrides and extensions directly in this child style.css.

Just for example, this style will change the default BG Color for the site.
