Adding my-account link to the header account icon

[AndreaBaino]

Hi!

As posted in another topic
I’m trying this solution to achieve a similar request. I would like to have a direct link to sitename.com/my-account in the account icon (tested it on some friend, more than one has clicked on the icon expecting to go to the account page).

Modifying the sf-header.php file in parent theme with ‘ . $my_account_link . ‘ it worked fine but I can’t get the same using the function.php in child theme. I’ve copied the whole function as you said but it’s not working.
How can I get using the child theme?
Thank you
Andrea

Hi

You need to activate the child theme for it to work

Hi Kyle, thank you. I have activated it but as you said right now I checked out and it’s not active. Obviously now is active and the function.php solution in the child theme does not work! As you can see in the attachments copying the whole function show me the header texts instead of the icons. Where am I wrong?
Thanks
Andrea

Have you got any other files in your child theme?

No, just edited the function.php
Here it is in the attachments!

You’ve copied the whole file to the child theme, you need to copy only the function you’ve edited

Ops! Ok, it sounded a bit strange to copy all the functions and… that’s it! It’s working! many thanks.
Just to complete the topic this is the piece of code added to the functions.php in the child theme:

    /* ACCOUNT
    ================================================== */
    if ( ! function_exists( 'sf_get_account' ) ) {
        function sf_get_account( $aux = "" ) {

        	// VARIABLES
            $login_url         = wp_login_url();
            $logout_url        = wp_logout_url( home_url() );
            $my_account_link   = get_admin_url();
            $myaccount_page_id = get_option( 'woocommerce_myaccount_page_id' );
            if ( $myaccount_page_id ) {
                $my_account_link = get_permalink( $myaccount_page_id );
                $logout_url      = wp_logout_url( get_permalink( $myaccount_page_id ) );
                $login_url       = get_permalink( $myaccount_page_id );
                if ( get_option( 'woocommerce_force_ssl_checkout' ) == 'yes' ) {
                    $logout_url = str_replace( 'http:', 'https:', $logout_url );
                    $login_url  = str_replace( 'http:', 'https:', $login_url );
                }
            }
            $login_url       = apply_filters( 'sf_header_login_url', $login_url );
            $register_url	 = apply_filters( 'sf_header_register_url', wp_registration_url() );
            $my_account_link = apply_filters( 'sf_header_myaccount_url', $my_account_link );

It’s not working good in reality! The function works and the new link in the icon is added but I didn’t notice it is hiding me the wishlist + cart icon!
