    Hello

    I have a problem with my theme (oblique) since the wordpress update, the category pages are unreadable. Example:

    When I switch to the twenty four theme, the category layout is good.
    I tried to deactivate the plugins, it does not change the error.
    The theme Oblique is no longer available for support but I’m not good enough to change all. Any idea to fix categories bug ?

    With themes that no longer exist, you actually only have 2 options in the event of problems:

    a) Customize the theme for yourself. You will probably have to adapt some template files. If you are not able to do this yourself, find someone who can help you. You can find someone like this here, for example: https://jobs.wordpress.net
    b) Look for another theme. There are many other free plugins to choose from: https://ww.wp.xz.cn/themes/

    For the the category pages issues you need to create a child theme to modify the category.php template as per your need and future update to the parent theme (oblique) don’t effect our changes.

    Process to create a Child theme

    Go to wp-content/themes/ and create a new folder named something like oblique-child.

    Inside the oblique-child folder, create a file named style.css

    /*
    Theme Name: Oblique Child
    Theme URI: http://your-site-url/
    Description: Child theme for the Oblique theme
    Author: Your Name
    Author URI: http://your-site-url/
    Template: oblique
    Version: 1.0.0
    */

    ———————————————–

    Create functions.php in same folder

    <?php function oblique_child_enqueue_styles() { wp_enqueue_style(‘parent-style’, get_template_directory_uri() . ‘/style.css’); } add_action(‘wp_enqueue_scripts’, ‘oblique_child_enqueue_styles’);

    —————————————————-

    Copy category.php from oblique to Oblique Child theme and change into theme.
