    Hi Guys

    In relation to removing “GD Avada Child Theme” for rel 1.3.6

    I have made changes to the Functions.php and style.css in this child theme folder. (wp-content/themes/geodir_Avada-Child-Theme)

    If GeoDirectory does not use this child theme any more then where now do I move my changes to.

    Thanks a lot
    dave

    hi,

    you should use a new blank child theme that only uses our header.php a blank functions.php and style.css.

    Than copy your custrom css and functions in the new child theme files.

    Another way would be to copy the new header.php in your old child theme, and removed anything else that is not part of your custom css or functions.

    Let us know how you went,

    Thank

    I may have missed something here. But I don’t see a download link for the header.php file. Please explain the steps required to retrieve it.

    Guys,

    I am confused here and really… and I reckon a lot of Avada users will be also. I guess a couple of back to basics questions:

    Paolo says “you should use a new blank child theme that only uses our header.php a blank functions.php and style.css.”. How do we create a new blank child theme? How do we make it only user header.php and a blank functions.php and style.css.

    I am sure it’s simple, but when you don’t know how I had to ask. Are you going to make a new blank child theme for people to download?

    Keen to upgrade, so thanks for the help.

    Adrian

    I think I got the child theme created… I just copied the /wp-content/themes/geodir_Avada-Child-Theme and created a new /wp-content/themes/mynewchildtheme out of it and renames the child theme in the css (comments at the top) and it seems to have worked. But I’ve other issues which I’ve raised separately. Thanks, Adrian

    Hi paolo

    That all worked fine .

    I did notice that on step 2 of your instructions
    http://docs.wpgeodirectory.com/avada-compatibility-header-php/

    I could not find this line
    ?><div id=”main” class=”clearfix <?php echo $main_class; ?>”>

    But I did find this line which i presume is the correct line to add the hook before

    ?><div id=”main” class=”clearfix <?php echo $main_class; ?>” style=”<?php echo $main_css; ?>”>

    Thanks again
    dave

    Hi @pdqdigitalmedia,

    in GeoDirectory > Theme Compatibility select avada and an alert with the link should appear.

    Thanks
