I’ve given up on trying to fix this because I have no way of creating a child theme and easy to use WordPress is turning into a project.

Doing this:

Go in Appearence -> Themes. Roll over “Customizr” and click on “Theme Details”, then you’ll see the button “Create a child theme”.

I can’t find anything about creating a child theme. As mentioned before I have buttons rather than the links shown in the help file. Moving my pointer over every inch of the screen results in nothing popping up.

If somebody starts a new topic can you post the link here? Thanks.

Yes it’s activated I just don’t have the create a child theme option in appearance->themes->Customizr. I have buttons rather than links as shown in the help file.

Because I’m trying to do this in a hurry I was looking at the main functions.php.

I’ve read the help file and installed child-themify plug in. However, I don’t have links in appearance-> themes shown in the help file and the option create a child theme. I have customise, widgets, menus and about customiser as buttons instead. The child-themify plugin files are on my server.

Thanks for the help but I’m spending too much time trying to fix this. I used WordPress to be a quick and easy website creator while I got on with coding our main product. It’ll have to let it run as it is.

Looked in functions.php and can’t work out where to put this. I understand the PHP but not enough about WordPress to place this. I’ve tried it in a few places but only resulted in hanging WordPress and having to restore back up files. So I’ll leave it to you guys to fix.

Thanks for the response.

The author can be fixed by replacing : <?php the_author(); ?>,
with; <span class=”vcard author”><span class=”fn”><?php the_author(); ?></span></span>

I’m more than happy to edit this myself but can’t find the file <?php the_author(); ?> is kept in. Where can I find this?
