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 –

I am using this theme:

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 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).
Check this image
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'm creating a child theme of Quality (https://wordpress.org/themes/quality/). I´m using the Business Template for the main page.
These are the sections of the template in Quality:
And these ones are the sections of my child theme:
As can be seen, most of the sections disappeared in the child theme.
How can I use those sections in my theme?
Seems like theres something thats already added when you are using the Quality template, which isn't activated in your child theme.
Isn't there some kind of setting page, where you can enable stuff like this?
Maybe under "Appearance" in the wordpress backend menu.
I had not found any option to change that in the menu before post my question.
It does not seem to be a WordPress problem, but theme problem
I am having an issue with a wordpress and a bbpress plugin. I need to install a bbpress theme, but I can't seem to have them show up in admin, although I put it in the right directory. I have also tried with other themes, same result.
This is a bit hacky, but I was able to theme bbpress by building a child theme. By making a child theme instead of altering the plugin theme directly, you will make sure that your style changes won’t be overwritten if and when you update the plugin.
Start by copying the bbpress theme out of the plugin folder (I started working off the bbp-twentyten theme), and pasting it into the Wordpress themes folder. Rename it with whatever you want your new bbpress theme to be called. Go into themes > your child theme's name > style.css and add this in the header:
#import url('../ the name of your parent theme /style.css');
Theme Name: Name of your Child theme
Description: Description of child theme.
Author: Your name
Template: The name of your parent theme
Go in to the appearance > theme area of your Wordpress dashboard and see if your new theme appears. If it does, install it.
Your site should look exactly like it did before. What happens is that #import url allows the theme to pull all the styles from the parent theme, which you can then override without messing up the original.
Now edit the style.css file in themes > your-child-theme. Just be aware that if you make a change that doesn’t seem to load, you may need to add an !important to the style.
