I have a free version of WordPress Elegant Magazine theme. In footer, with copyrights, the name of the theme is mentioned; not editable through visual customisation.
I tried to edit theme code but was getting error msgs.
What should i do now? Would you help me with the code?
In the Customized option, You can give display:none on the Addition CSS area for footer copyrights class name. Then give your own copyrights text through the footer widgets
OR
Just find the copyrights text on the wordpress/wp-content/themes/elegant/ folder and change it
It will work on...
Create child theme. Read how to create child theme https://developer.wordpress.org/themes/advanced-topics/child-themes/ or download the child theme i have made https://github.com/snuffybg/Elegant-Magazine-Child-theme.git
In your child theme you will find footer.php file where at line 144 to 147 code is edited. You need child theme in case the theme have updates and to avoid overwrite files.
Update: After download go to Wordpress dashboard -> Appearance -> Themes . Add new and upload elegant-magazine-child.zip after that activate.

I want to change the footer text and add my website name in it, how could I do so? I am using Magazine Pro Theme on Wordpress.
Normally pro themes provide documentation for customizing it. You can find there the changing option. You can also check the theme option for that.
I hope you will get your answer.
I must be present somewhere in the theme customizer. In mostly themes footer text will present in theme customizer under footer option
If you don't find the code in the theme customizer, then another method is to change it from the footer.php file. First of all, login to your WordPress dashboard and visit Appearance » Theme Editor from the left sidebar of your WordPress dashboard. On the right side, you'll see different theme files. From here open the Theme Footer file (footer.php).

Now you can change the footer text from here. But before changing it, save the backup of code for restoration in case if you change the wrong code. If you still face any issues, send me the code which is present in footer.php and I'll guide you which code you have to change.
I have a problem with my theme and I am sick of tired to communicate with the theme support team...so I try to solve the issue myself (if possible).
My problem is: I have some single product layout under theme option but when I try to change none of them work. I could overwrite the style in the child theme (how the information, text...etc will show) but my main problem is the product image. Is it too big and the thumbs appear under the image. I want smaller image box and thumbs on the left side. Is it possible to overwrite this in the child theme somehow?
I am not a professional programmer or web designer, but would be happy to learn :)
Thanks for any help or comments :)
May be you can check it with word press plugins. Here is a link. Before override Woo commerce Single Product Template You can try it with custom css in your theme style.css
Copy this very basic CSS and place in your child theme’s style.css file. Check this link.
I'm new on wordpress and I have readed about childs themes.
My question is, Is that neccessary that I create my self child theme or can I use other theme child created ? that's to say, if I use a child theme created for other person, that theme will not change that I do it?
The way a child theme works is that it overrides the default settings of your chosen theme. So you only have to allow for the parts of the theme that you want to make your own.
As long as a child theme created for someone else is based on YOUR main theme, then you could use someone else's child theme.
For example, if someone has a child theme that works for Wordpress 2017, you can upload and modify that for your own use, for example to change the css or create your own header and footer files (usually named header.php and footer.php). These are the things I do most often.
If you don't already have a child theme for your chosen theme, though, it is best that you create one yourself. It is quite straightforward, all you have to do as a minimum is create a child theme folder with a style.css in the correct format and a functions.php file in the same folder using these instructions https://codex.wordpress.org/Child_Themes
If all you want to do is play with color and fonts, you might find it easiest to just use the Wordpress Theme Customizer. These changes will be maintained during upgrades in a custom.css file (or equivalent) so you shouldn't need a child theme.
Hope this helps
Hello i just purchased the WP theme Alona from http://themeforest.net/item/alona-tidy-clean-portfolio/8926976. I installed the theme into wp properly, and it is working, but it seems that i cant make any changes to the style sheet even after altering the preferences to the style sheet on my host. I'm not sure why this is happening and any help would be greatly appreciated.
Most of the purchased theme having Theme options In that you can find space for custom css or advanced css.
Themeoptions->customcss
if its not available
you can edit in
apperence->editor->style.css (its not safe)
so you should create a
apperence-> child theme->activate it
Edit WordPress theme CSS
Appearance → Editor->style.css(child theme).
you can change the style of detailed reference click here
Thanks for taking the time to read this. I've purchased the Beep theme from themeforest and created a child theme to work from. I've created the functions.php and style.css files in the child directory. When I activate the theme in WP some of the formatting looked messed up. Especially the navigation area. I've tried placing a PHP echo in the functions.php file which is relayed to the site - so WP is definitely finding the functions.php file. I've attached a screenshot of the child CSS, child functions and the my site directory structure. Also included is a screenshot from WP of what the Parent theme homepage looks like and what the Child theme looks like. Antony

Kindly go to appearance and check with menu settings, because most of the time theme will take all the categories or pages by default as menu. So change it to you custom menu or of theme custom menu –
