ThomasVIg,

Your code is incomplete…
You have to declare what version is your parent’s theme…among others !

Theme Name: vantage-child
Theme-URI: ???? here you put your info https://yoursite.com/vantage-child
Author : Your name
AuthorURI : your personal site
Template : vantage (parent’s theme name
Version : ???? (this is the version’s number of your parent name : for example 1.3.2

It seems that a lot of people already developed this subject. I found a solution here :

Thank you Kim !

Hello Seastnan,

I tried your code and it works fine for me. Only one difference : I didn’t use double slash after the address (client.com), like you did. Maybe you just have to correct your path and erase one slash, in this way : https://client.com/wp-content/uploads… etcetera

Ok, I tried the solution referenced by Pete and it works…

In abstract :
I copied the content.php in my child-theme and modified the line 47
The original line is : <?php if ( is_search() : ?>
The modified line is : <?php if ( is_search() || is_home() || is_archive() ) : ?>

That’s all !

Please, forget the last question, I discovered the way to show excerpt’s field in the top of the screen, in the screen options… I will come back after trying the solution referenced by Pete….

Thank you four your answer Pete,

I will certainly try this solution, but I realized that I don’t have any field dedicated to excerpts at the end of my post’s editor. I suppose that I need to activate this option. But, how ?

??

is the same question for me…
anyone could help us?

Thanks Chouby !!! It works perfectly !

I’m not a theme developer and I don’t feel really good with child themes, but I just decided to explore both options. First, I maked the changements directly in the wp’s editor and it works. Then, in order to make things the smart way, I did a child theme with two files : style.css and header.php. And it steel works.

What I did : My child’s header.php file is entirely repeating the parent’s one, except in the “<?php else…navicons”> where I putted what Chouby told me.
My style.css has only the child’s theme identification and the Chouby’s sentence :

/*
Theme Name:     Imbalance Child
Theme URI:      https://mysite.com/
Description:    Child theme for the Imbalance theme
Author:         My Name
Author URI:     https://mysite.com/
Template:       imbalance
Version:        1.19
*/

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

#language-switch {
	float: right;
}

#logo {
	float: left;
}

.lang-item {
	display: inline;
}

Hi,

I agree with BBPress about Polylang. Like him, I appreciate its simplicity and i’m searching the way to create a language switcher, not in the sidebar (using the widget), but in the top right corner of my site. For information, I’m using a WPshower theme, Imbalance.

I already read the function pll_the-languages described in the doc and I still don’t know what I have to do.

Do I have to introduce this line of code : pll_the_languages($args);
in my style.css or in my functions.php?

Hi Alexander, I’m trying to do the same thing, so I’m reading some documentation about your question. In summary, the best solution seems to create a Child Theme based on your actual theme (which then becomes the parent theme).

Documentation :
Codex, ThemeShaper’s explanation and this useful video.

Hope it helps you !
