I'm new to Insite, and I'm trying to create a custom theme using their demo site as a base. The default theme that the site uses is InsiteManufacturing (which inherits the Responsive theme). When I load up the site, it looks like this (I added a custom homepage to the InsiteManufacturing theme to override the one in Response).
To make a custom theme, I made an exact copy of the InsiteManufacturing directory and put in the Themes folder, and renamed it "CustomSite". Then in the Insite Console, in Website Settings > Theme I changed the Theme Value to "CustomSite". When I refreshed the site, it has the content but no styles.
Why aren't the styles being applied? The directory is exactly the same as the InsiteManufacturing directory, other than the name (and the HTML on the home page).
I know that Insite is finding the CustomSite theme, because 1) the HTML on the homepage is correct ("Hello! (Custom Theme)") and 2) when I put a non-existent theme name in the Console, I get an error loading the page. So CustomSite is being found, but the styles aren't working.
You have to set up the theme.config file in your custom theme telling it what the parent theme is. Take a look at the theme.example.config in the Themes folder.

How you can change the site logo URL on the header section?
I followed a lot of steps from may sites such as the following, and nothing worked:
https://docs.oceanwp.org/article/473-change-custom-logo-url
https://crunchify.com/how-to-change-logo-url-link-for-any-wordpress-themes-including-genesis-themes/
https://docs.oceanwp.org/article/473-change-custom-logo-url
None of the above links were helpful.
I appreciate your help.

you can try from the admin dashboard Appearance -> Customize -> Header
generally site logos can be changed from there
Edit:
My apologies, I just realized that you are looking to change the site logo URL.
You will want to install a child theme first if there's one for your theme or create one Child Themes - Wordpress
Then, you will want to dive into the original theme files and see if there are any filters within your header.php and use it to replace the anchor with a the one that you specify in functions.php in your child theme Filters and Hooks - Wordpress
Do take note that if you modify the theme functions.php directly without using a child theme it will be reset everytime you update the theme.
I am newbie to WordPress and currently working to get an idea on how WordPress works. Now when I visit a new page url like something this:
mysite.com/my_newly_created_page
and inspect its CSS, I found style of the content is controlled from here:
mysite.com/?gt3_show_only_css=1&ver=5.4.1
I want to get the css or part of any css which is gt3_show_only_css but can't understand how to locate it from the url as you can see this is query to the main url of the website.
You can always find the WordPress CSS files in your theme at
"/wp-content/themes/your-theme/style.css" or in a subfolder of your theme like for example "assets" .
Also the different plugins bring their own CSS files.
If you just want to make simple changes to the CSS code, you can do this in your child theme in the style.css file or directly in WordPress:
Appearance -> Customize -> Additional CSS
Here you can define separate instructions for each CSS class.
I am trying to change the background color of my Wordpress site, as well as the size of images I use on this site. However, I can't find the CSS file that specifies these properties for my Wordpress site.
If I can edit it, where is the CSS file that specifies these properties for my Wordpress site located?
You can edit CSS from admin panel also
Go to Dashboard > Appearance > Editor and click on style.css.
here you can edit the files directly from this window and hit save when you’re done.
or
You can edit CSS file located at ,
Go to wp-content > themes > YOUR THEME NAME and try to finder a folder that houses the css files. They are usually named CSS stylesheets or styles.
Which theme do you use?
The most of wordpress themes have a style.css in their parent folder that finds in: wp-content/themes/your-theme.
If you can't find this file, you can add styles in custom CSS on the "Theme Options" in /wp-admin.
PD: I recommend you to use a child theme because if you need in the future to update the theme, all your modifications in it will lose.
I'm customizing a Wordpress theme. The original theme has a WooCommerce folder inside like:
/wp-content/themes/az/woocommerce/
I created a child theme and activated it, then copied the WwooCommerce folder to child theme:
/wp-content/themes/az-child/woocommerce/
But web when I customized the child theme WooCommerce folder files there was no effect; the site seems to still be using the original WooCommerce folder not the new version.
Could anyone help me resolve this issue, please?
First check whether do you have any overriding template present. for that see the steps in the image given below.
If there is no templates overridden then refer to this link
I'm using a child theme. I want to override a template of base theme.
I created, articles-page.php which starts with:
<?php
/*
Template Name: Articles
*/
While creating a page in Wordpress I can see my template listed in the Page Attributes widget to my right. The problem is, when I change my template setting to "Articles" and hit update. It still shows default. My change is not being saved, hence my template is not being loaded for that page.
All you have to do is to copy the specific template file you want to alter from the parent theme into the child theme’s directory, then make your changes. The way WordPress works is when it looks for some template file, it looks in the child theme first, then it goes to the parent theme if the file it wants isn’t there.
Copy the file as it is in child theme with same name. Later try editing the template.
