    I received notice of a Supreme Theme Update. The update notices says… You have version 1.0.6 installed. Update to 1.1.0.

    My question is — WHAT do I do to protect the loss of customization prior to updating? The address format worked flawlessly, sent by KOR, until the last Supreme Theme update and now the address format is goofy again.

    Would it be easier to update a couple of files rather than remove and replace the entire child theme?

    Because Supreme is a child theme, all you can do is manually merge any modifications you made, and avoid making changes to the theme in the future, but add CSS to GD > Design > Scripts, and use a plugin like Code Snippets for filters and hooks.

    A week or so ago Kor set up the Supreme Home Page as full width and got rid of the sidebar. I asked him to tell me how he accomplished that change but he never discloses what he does just goes in and makes the changes and does not follow up to explain what he did. I appreciate Kor’s expertise but without knowing what he did I end up screwing up the changes once I update Supreme Theme. How can I make sure the right sidebar does not return and make sure I still get full width while updating Supreme Theme?

    I alerted Kor to your question, probably best he deals with your issue.
    Thanks

    Hi Jimmy,

    I’m terribly sorry to hear about the problem. I’ve checked the conversation we had on another thread and I believe I’ve explained the changes I’ve made to the homepage regarding the “Full Width” option with screenshots and instructions. https://wpgeodirectory.com/support/topic/category-icons-supreme-theme-home-page/#post-303385 .

    Probably, it wasn’t clear enough and I’m so sorry about that. I’ve gone ahead and inspected your Website http://www.alliredell.com/ and could you tell me a little bit more about what you’re trying to achieve now? I noticed that you’re not using the “Beaver Builder” plugin on the homepage anymore. Probably, you’ve temporary removed it while waiting for my response. Please explain to me a little bit more regarding your issue and I’ll try my best to help you with this.

    Thanks!

    Hi Kor,

    My concern deals with upgrading the Supreme Theme released in the past couple of days. I did not know what changes you made to the home page to get rid of the right sidebar other than I discovered the marquee ads on the bottom of the home page was missing. I checked around and discovered you were assigning the home page to the full width template which explains why the marquee ads on the bottom of the home page disappeared.

    I fixed the missing marquee ad component by adding the Marquee ad coding to the php of the full width template page so the Marquee ads are now displaying properly.

    So now my issue is what happens if I update Supreme Theme — will that Supreme Theme update cause the revert back to the right sidebar template or will the Supreme Theme full width remain active?

    My specific question — how did you assign the full width template to become the default home page load for the Supreme Theme?

    As far as the Beaver Plugin goes, I shut if off temporarily but I will reinstall Beaver shortly.

    Hi Jimmy,

    Thanks for your reply. To clarify, updating a child theme will overwrite all existing custom code you’ve inserted into the child theme files. So, what you can do now would be to copy all the existing custom codes such as CSS back into GD > Design > Scripts > Custom Style CSS and custom scripts into the “Code Snippets” plugin. Here’s the link to download it. https://wordpress.org/plugins/code-snippets/

    If you are referring to this demo Website https://wpgeo.directory/supreme-directory/ , we are using “Beaver Builders” plugin and I’d like you to know that “Supreme Directory” child theme comes with a full width template which can be selected when you edit a page. Check out this screenshot http://prntscr.com/dd84wt . I hope this clears it up and please let us know how it goes.

    Hi Jimmy,

    There’s one more thing to clarify. When you update the “Supreme Directory” child theme. The existing page with “Fullwidth” template will not automatically change to the default template(with a sidebar).

    Thanks

    Kor,

    The purpose of my post was to learn how to assign the full width template without a right sidebar once the Supreme Theme is updated? You made that change for me and you never actually explained what change you made — so I must return to ask each time I update Supreme.

    Please be so kind to inform me WHAT change you made to load the full width template for the home page without a right sidebar — and as soon as I learn your code changes I will never have to ask again.

    I know how to save the css and other code customization but you never told me how you got the full width template to load on the Supreme Theme without a right sidebar — pretty please.

    Here in America — the phrase “pretty please” means I need your help especially.

    Kor, you are my hero, please help explain how to get the full width template to load with no right side-bar using Supreme Theme…

    Hi Jimmy,

    Thanks for your reply. Yes, I’ve already mentioned in my previous post “Supreme Directory child theme comes with a full-width template which can be selected when you edit a page. Check out this screenshot http://prntscr.com/dd84wt ” Are you able to see that dropdown option when you’re editing your page? Should be visible in the “Page Attributes”.

    Thanks!

    Kor,

    You are my hero. Easy as pie never need to ask you again.

    Last issue is actually a prior issue that keeps returning each time I update Supreme Theme.

    I am in America. Here in America the business listing address in the right sidebar on each of the PLACES right SIDEBAR should look like this:

    ICON: Address:
    123 Easy Street
    City, State ZIP

    You sent me the css to make that address format work but the last time I updated Supreme Theme the address broke, reverted back and now looks like this:

    ICON: Address: 123 Easy Street
    City
    State
    ZIP

    Would you be so kind to send me the address format fix so I can correct the address as soon as I update Supreme Theme.

    Hi Jimmy,

    Kindly insert the following custom CSS code below into GD > Design > Scripts > Custom Style CSS . Let us know if it’s what you’re looking for.

    
    
    .geodir-company_info .geodir-i-location{
        display:block;
    }
    
    .geodir-company_info br:nth-child(4),
    .geodir-company_info br:nth-child(5),
    .geodir-company_info br:nth-child(7) {
        display:none;
    }
    

    Thanks!

    KOR,

    My genius friend I need you again. The address format was functioning perfectly at the main level where all Places list and also on the listing details page — and then I upgraded the Starter Theme, Supreme Theme, and updated all of the GD plugins and poof the address format no longer works even after I copied the CSS stylesheet back in as expected.
