In the WP_Theme class, the get method gives you a sanitized theme header. You cannot use it to extract a property. Actually you don’t need to, as you can access it directly like this: // get the parent object $parent = wp_get_theme()->parent(); // get parent version if (!empty($parent)) $parent_version = $parent->Version;
with your code you completely redefine your CPT instead of just modifying the slug maybe this change the public access try this : $args = get_post_type_object(“portfolio”); $args->rewrite[“slug”] = “homepage”; register_post_type($args->name, $args);
Since the function is used in your child theme’s template there’s nothing stopping you from using a function with a different name. So you don’t actually need to plug the function, you just need to create a function that does what you want and use that instead. So copy ale_filter() to your child theme, rename … Read more
Both the header and background image features setup some globals in order to work, unsetting those globals seems to have some effect, and at the least removes them from the administration side. add_action(‘after_setup_theme’, ‘remove_theme_features’, 11 ); function remove_theme_features() { $GLOBALS[‘custom_background’] = ‘kill_theme_features’; $GLOBALS[‘custom_image_header’] = ‘kill_theme_features’; } class kill_theme_features { function init() { return false; } … Read more
Code in a functions.php (or any file loaded by that file) should not run automatically, eg. when the file is included. All code should be bound to hooks. That means, you don’t need a special action in the parent theme. The child theme can turn off all parent theme callbacks with remove_action() and remove_filter(). But … Read more
Only under some circumstances. If the parent theme’s functions are wrapped in function_exists conditionals then you should be able to replace them. For example: // Parent if (!function_exists(‘p_wpse_95799’)) { function p_wpse_95799() { // } } If the child theme defines a function named p_wpse_95799 then the parent function will not be used. If this is … Read more
Thanks for all the help which pointed me in the right direction. In the end I used the following: $style_parent_theme = wp_get_theme(get_template()); $style_parent_theme_author = $style_parent_theme->get( ‘Author’ ); I use get_template() to recover the folder name of the parent theme. wp_get_theme then get’s the theme object. Once we have that we can manipulate the object to … Read more
One does not simply throw <link> (CSS) or <script> tags into the <head> of a WordPress theme. The right way to do it: Register, enqueue … tadaa! WordPress has the “Dependency API” for this task. It consists basically out of those public functions: wp_register_script() wp_enqueue_script() wp_register_style() wp_enqueue_style() Then there’re aligning functions to deregister scripts or … Read more
It should be noted that the child stylesheet loads after the parent theme’s styles, so this should not be a problem. I think what is happening here is that you are trying to change styles that is not in the the parent stylesheet, but in other custom stylesheets. If that is the case, then your … Read more
Your child theme’s stylesheet will usually be loaded automatically. If it is not, you will need to enqueue it as well. Setting ‘parent-style’ as a dependency will ensure that the child theme stylesheet loads after it. /** * Enqueue theme styles (parent first, child second) * */ function wpse218610_theme_styles() { $parent_style=”parent-style”; wp_enqueue_style( $parent_style, get_template_directory_uri() . … Read more
