Some slider options gone when using child theme

    Hello there,

    First of all let me tell you that this is the best wordpress theme and clearly has the best support out there.

    I have a site running on these theme and all works fine but this:

    – When in the child theme, the place in the theme options to insert the slider images is gone. It has the title but the functional part is gone. Some icon menu options are gone too.

    – I already tried disabling all the plugins but nothing changes.

    – In the main theme all works fine.

    – I thought it could be a problem with one of the files I altered but tried replacing those in the child theme with the original theme ones and the problem continues.

    – I have the latest version both of wordpress and virtue.

    I would be really thankful if you could help me.

    Thanks,

    João

    also instead of pictures in the slider, the following text appears:

    “Warning: Invalid argument supplied for foreach() in /home/asdecord/public_html/wp-content/themes/virtue/templates/home/flex-slider.php on line 11”

    Hey,
    What all is in your child theme. are you adding functions? Or just changing a few template files?

    Hello!

    I added functions and changed one template from the theme and several from woocommerce. Other than that I changed some minor things in virtue.css and custom-css.php.

    Thank you,

    Ok if you are using the files virtue.css and custom-css.php (which you shouldn’t) it sounds like your child theme is just a copy of the parent theme? a child theme should only have the template files you want to change. You can’t copy over any function files, you create your own in the child functions.php file. And you shouldn’t copy the core css file. You should just use the child style.css file to override the parent theme css.

    At this point I can’t guess what is causing the error because I can’t see what is in your child theme?

    Hi!

    Yeah, I had screwed up. Instead of inserting only my functions I had copied the entire functions.php to the child theme. However, now the first problem is solved but I can’t get functions.php to work without giving me somo “can’t modify header” erros. I’ll try and solve those. Thanks for the help.

    Thank you,

    João
