If I create header.php file and edit it as described when/if twenty twelve updates will it affect my template?

I ask because I am new to creating child themes and I see:

@since Twenty Twelve 1.0

Which I am reading as if any other version other than 1.0 the child theme code will not override?

Just what I was looking for – thanks!

Still new to knowing just how everything works but I am just wondering about this on the content.php example above:

* @since Twenty Twelve 1.0

Does this mean if/when Twenty Twelve has a newer version the content.php in the child folder I created will no longer apply?

Thanks, I had added some design code to the widget with a negative top margin which for some reason was why it did not work on mobile but I took it out and now it works. Thanks so much!

Sorry, I am using Genesis with Crystal Child Theme. I figured it was a WordPress question since username is basic WordPress setting no matter what theme I use.

Any help greatly appreciated, I really want to take care of it ASAP.

Perfect! Thanks!

Right there is only one page but 2 instances where subscribers are directed to a page.

1) they enter their email address into the widget and are redirected to a page. This is the page I created and chose through Subscribe2. It says please verify your subscription. I DO NOT want the download link on this page as I want them to verify 1st.

2) HERE is my problem. Once they check email they click on the link to verify subscription and are re-directed to a page that says : “You have successfully subscribed” I want to edit this portion. However when I click to edit the page it brings me to page in #1 That says “Please verify…..” and there is no text that says “You have successfully subscribed” that I can edit!

I only see one place on the plug in to choose a page, right now this is set to a page I created for after they originally enter their email so after i create a second page how do tell the plug in to direct subscribers there AFTER they confirm their subscription since right now all I can find for page choices is that one choice but again that’s for after they enter their email to the widget

Yes, basically that is what I am trying to do. So I have content on 3 child pages so for example child pages are Child 1 displays all my social media buttons, Child 2-blog buttons, and Child-3 has ad buttons. Then I have a parent page that will be “View All Buttons” so I want it to show the content of the child pages so reader can view all.

The problem I am running into is I dont have a page.php file?

I am using the Crystal theme and I don’t see a page.php in parent genesis files either?

I tried a few plug-ins and they work BUT they give me this huge, wide section of code. I just need a small grey box behind the code with a scroll bar!

I want the code I posted above in a small box?

Like I have it here:

https://blogaholicdesigns.com/free/blog-buttons/free-fall-blog-buttons/

The way I got it to work here is I pasted it all into html added BUT the minute I accidentally hit visual it wiped out all my code and I hadn’t saved it! I can’t chance that every time! I have tons of pages with code like this.

Please help!!!!!

Thank you GoElemental worked perfectly!!!!!

Alright, sorry I used a tutorial (it was common among most tutorials on redirecting from Blogger to WordPress). Here is that just so you can see the code but I will also paste below.

I created a php file and put it in my theme folder:

<?php

  Template Name: blogger
 */

 global $wpdb;
 $old_url = $_GET['q'];

 if ($old_url != "") {
   $permalink = explode("blogspot.com", $old_url);

   $q = "SELECT guid FROM $wpdb->posts LEFT JOIN $wpdb->postmeta ".
        "ON ($wpdb->posts.ID = $wpdb->postmeta.post_id) WHERE ".
        "$wpdb->postmeta.meta_key='blogger_permalink' AND ".
        "$wpdb->postmeta.meta_value='$permalink[1]'";

  $new_url = $wpdb->get_var($q)? $wpdb->get_var($q) : "/";

  header ("HTTP/1.1 301 Moved Permanently");
  header("Location: $new_url");
 }
?>

Then I created a new page (blank) and was able to choose “blogger” from the wordpress template drop down due to the php file I added.

Then I went to Blogger-Edit Html and pasted:

<!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.0 Strict//EN"
    "https://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml1/DTD/xhtml1-strict.dtd">
<html xmlns="https://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml" xml:lang="en" lang="en"

   window.location.href='https://labnol.org/blogger/?q=<$BlogItemPermalinkURL$>'
 </ItemPage></Blogger>
</script>

<MainPage><link rel="canonical" href="https://labnol.org/" /></MainPage>
<Blogger><ItemPage>
 <link rel="canonical" href="https://labnol.org/blogger/?q=<$BlogItemPermalinkURL$>" />

</head><body>

<div style="border:#ccc 1px solid; background:#eee; padding:20px; margin:80px;">

    <a>"><$BlogItemTitle$></a>
   </ItemPage>

</h1>

  </div>
 </body>
</html>

This worked I checked old links, googled posts I knew would come up in the search engine and was re-directed but again as soon as I installed BPS no links redirected!

I did not delete any wp files and I did not delete my .htaccess file. I only deleted 2 BPS folders that were left after I followed the complete removal direction and then my re-directs worked again!

Thanks for your help I’d love to be able to figure it out so I can re-install!

To redirect I added a php file to my theme and then added the 301 redirect code to the html section of Blogger so no I never touched the actual .htaccess file for the redirection.

I did follow the steps above for removing but still no redirect! Then I manually deleted some BPS files that were still in my wp files and switched over to use a plugin for the redirect and things are back to redirecting!

I really would like to use BPS, is there a reason it would cause redirects not to work? Code I need to add?
Thanks

Thanks so much!

Maybe I just wont use WP Better Security then! I’m just trying to use maximum security and there is so many choices I don’t really know what I need, what is too much and what is not enough! I have been reading articles all day and they all list 15-20 plug-ins that are good for security but they all do different things! Headache!

So now I am using BPS, changed my security keys, added Limit LogIn Attempts, and thinking about doing a file monitor? But if I am using BPS my files should not be able to be accessed or should I add just to be safe?

I really appreciate your help!

Thanks so much!

I don’t want my files displayed as a directory- so just to be clear I should add Options -Index correct? If so would I add it through the.htaccess on the plugin edit screen or through my hosting files?

Also is it safe to run BPS and Better WP Security together? Do I need both?
