There is a different hook that is called for when you should add your Javascript and CSS: wp_enqueue_scripts (you use it … Read more

It is pretty simple: function remove_nada_theme_font_style() { remove_action( ‘wp_enqueue_scripts’, ‘nada_theme_styles’ ); } add_action( ‘after_setup_theme’, ‘remove_nada_theme_font_style’ ); Since the child theme is loaded before the parent theme, you can’t simply remove the action. because the add_action calls in the parent theme will simply overwrite your requests. You have to wrap it into the after_setup_theme hook. This … Read more
Per comments get_stylesheet_directory_uri() gets the current template (child in this case) directory, eg // Load our main stylesheet. wp_enqueue_style( ‘less-style’, get_stylesheet_directory_uri() . ‘/css/style.less’ );
I was just told to ‘enque a new style,’– does this mean write a new @import rule? No, it doesn’t. And in fact that is the worst way to include new stylesheets as it causes page load delays. What you want to do is something like this (straight from the Codex): add_action( ‘wp_enqueue_scripts’, ‘theme_enqueue_styles’ ); … Read more
You should run the conditional tags (e.g. is_front_page()) from inside the callback/function (e.g. remove_default_stylesheet()) — see Where to Use Conditional Tags and the warning here. And there’s no hook named wp_enqueue_style; just use the wp_enqueue_scripts to enqueue/register/dequeue/deregister a stylesheet file. So I’m not sure the exact conditionals you need, but the following would dequeue/deregister the … Read more
You’re getting the 404 error because you didn’t provide the correct URL address of your CSS file. And that’s because of the first plugin_dir_path() below which outputs a filesystem directory path (e.g. /home/user/var/www/wordpress/wp-content/plugins/my-plugin/): wp_enqueue_style( ‘myplugin-style’, plugin_dir_path( __FILE__ ) . ‘/css/style.css’, array(), filemtime( plugin_dir_path( __FILE__ ) . ‘/css/style.css’ ) ); So you should instead use plugin_dir_url() … Read more
You can use admin_print_styles for your hook, this is the preferred method for adding a style to your plugin or admin page. add_action(‘admin_print_styles’, ‘add_my_stylesheet’);
Another solution is to use filemtime for the cachebusting, so that the last modified timestamp is used as the querystring variable. This has the advantage that of still using the browser cache, and yet, a new file is served when the file is actually changed because the querystring changes. eg. $lastmodtime= filemtime(get_stylesheet_directory().’/style.css’); wp_enqueue_style(‘whatever’, get_stylesheet_uri(), array(), … Read more
