The child theme could just delete the parent theme file if it exists (via child theme functions.php). eg. $template = get_template_directory().’/woocommerce.php’; if (file_exists($template)) {unlink($template);} That would continue to override it if it came to exist again (ie. after a parent theme update.) If you aren’t going to update the parent theme just delete it’s woocommerce.php … Read more
Overriding parent theme file
If you look at get_parent_theme_file_path() it returns apply_filters( ‘parent_theme_file_path’, $path, $file ); You need to add a filter here to override the location to something in your child theme, like so. add_filter(‘parent_theme_file_path’, function($path, $file) { if ($file !== ‘/inc/icon-functions.php’) { return $path; } $path = get_stylesheet_directory() . “https://wordpress.stackexchange.com/” . $file; return $path; }, 10, 2); … Read more
Switching theme does not purposely perform any forcible changes to configuration (that I can think of). The changes that are typically observed are caused by mismatch in theme’s features, for example menu locations and sidebars are likely differently named. So items assigned to them get treated as assigned to invalid location (which they are in … Read more
Using an index.php in your Child Theme is optional; but having one will overwrite your Parent’s index.php. Using a blank index.php will also show you a blank page. You can copy the index.php from your Parent’s Theme to make it look like the Parent’s Theme, but there’s no need to do it. If there’s no … Read more
I would expect that if you add a new filter with a higher priority it gets added to the existing color schemes: add_filter( ‘twentyfifteen_color_schemes’, ‘wpse193782_custom_color_schemes’, 99 ); function wpse193782_custom_color_schemes( $schemes ) { $schemes[‘default’] = array( ‘label’ => __( ‘Colors by Kat’, ‘twentyfifteen’ ), ‘colors’ => array( ‘#f1f1f1’, ‘#C32148’, ‘#ffffff’, ‘#333333’, ‘#333333’, ‘#f7f7f7’, ), ); return … Read more
This is essentially what locate_template() does. Searches in the STYLESHEETPATH (child) before TEMPLATEPATH (parent) and wp-includes/theme-compat so that themes which inherit from a parent theme can just overload one file.
I think you misunderstood the codex here. You cannot re-declare the same function, except when, and only when, the parent theme has wrapped a function in that conditional statement if ( ! function_exists( ‘theme_special_nav’ ) ) { function theme_special_nav() { // Do something. } } What this means is, you can copy the theme_special_nav() without … Read more
Actually we deal with a single question per QA, but the basic of them can be clarified in a simple manner, we can proceed in this way: First of all let me create a rudimentary child theme of Fukasawa for you. I made a folder inside themes/ folder, named something. Inside the folder I made … Read more
I’m sure you missed it but the dependency parameter should be an array and not a string. So your enqueue function should be: function child_enqueue_styles() { wp_enqueue_style( ‘parent-style’, get_template_directory_uri() . ‘/style.css’, array(‘bootstrap’)); } or: function child_enqueue_styles() { wp_enqueue_style( ‘parent-bootstrap’, get_template_directory_uri().’/css/bootstrap.min.css’); wp_enqueue_style( ‘parent-style’, get_template_directory_uri() . ‘/style.css’, array(‘parent-bootstrap’)); } Reference: wp_enqueue_style
