Template Modifications

[dothedance]

I made some customization on block posts, colors, font sizes, etc, but after update I lose everything.

At the moment, I’m restoring a backup. Maybe you can assist me updating my theme? Thanks for you help.

That sounds like a hosting issue – all of those are stored in the database, which the theme doesn’t touch.

Updating via Dashboard > Updates is all you need to do – that only affects the theme template files, nothing with the database.

If you lose again, I would contact your host to check logs.

Sorry, I’m a newbie with this things but I’m talking about the changes I made on child-theme and direct in the template files.

Oh – the template changes in the parent theme would be lost. Any changes should only be made in a child theme (child theme changes are never lost with a theme update).

Looks like the theme hasn’t uploaded fully – if you can’t restore the backup then I’d suggest speaking to your host.

You’ve customised the theme folder, so I don’t want to touch that. I’ve uploaded a fresh version of Cardinal to the directory, but you’ll need to replace the missing files in your theme folder – we can’t support user customisations.

Just had another look and sorted it for you. You just need to install the Swift Framework Plugin now, zip here – http://swiftideas.com/extras/plugins/swift-framework.zip

We’d recommend never to override the parent theme.

Hello Ed,
thanks for your help and patience.

However, it’s for being recovered.
I saw that Child Theme is not overriding the parent theme. I tried to put
#breadcrumbs{display:none} on Child Theme (style.css) and nothing happens but if I put the same code on parent theme (style.css) I’m able to hide breadcrumbs.

What can it be?

Hi,

Add the code below to your custom css option or in the child theme css.

.inner-page-wrap {
  width: 100%!important;
}

To override an existent css rule of the parent theme you need to use the !important like I did above.
