Page vs. Category in Menu & Child Theme

Hi There,

Thank you for your help on the ‘no categories’ earlier.

Today I have two questions:

  1. On my site I created a top level page - Photos and nested two posts under it to see how it works - what i see is that the top level Photos page does not actually link to a main page but only the sub-item navigational links work - is that possible to change?

  2. I have already created a child theme so that I can make some of the tweaks other users have asked on this forum, but was wondering if I wanted to upload another snippet of code files you posted for some other user, would I have to create another child theme or can I drop the new zip file into an existing child folder - and how do I do that?

Thank you,

Suman

Hi Suman,

I hope you are well today and thank you for your questions.

1. On my site I created a top level page – Photos and nested two posts under it to see how it works – what i see is that the top level Photos page does not actually link to a main page but only the sub-item navigational links work – is that possible to change?

This is the default behavior of Bootstrap framework that we have used in our theme. You can confirm it on the following Bootstrap framework nav menu demo page.

If you want to make the top level menu link visited on clicking on it then you can use the solution posted in the following reply.

If you can’t download the plugin on the above topic then you can created it manually as described in the bottom of the above topic.

2. I have already created a child theme so that I can make some of the tweaks other users have asked on this forum, but was wondering if I wanted to upload another snippet of code files you posted for some other user, would I have to create another child theme or can I drop the new zip file into an existing child folder – and how do I do that?

Could you please share me the topic URL where i have shared the snippet of code files which you have referred here?

Best Regards,

Thanks for the help on item 1 of my question.

For item 2 - here’s the post I took a child theme from to change the footer of my page.

The zip file you had attached in the 3rd post within that question string with the user Kazu.

Attaching the zip file.

Thank you,

If you are talking about the child theme shared in this topic https://colorlibsupport.com/t/editing-footerheader/ then please add the below code in the functions.php file of your child theme and add the footer.php file from that child theme into your child theme.

function custom_activello_footer_info() {

}
