Hi there,

Thanks for writing in!

Before doing any customizations, you will need to setup a Child Theme first. This allows you to keep your own custom changes separately while updating the main X theme.

Follow the steps below.

#1. Copy the file: x/framework/views/renew/_landmark-header.php it into your child theme: x-child/framework/views/renew/_landmark-header.php

#2. Open the the file that you have copied into the child theme using a text editor and locate the following section:

     <?php elseif ( is_category() || x_is_portfolio_category() || x_is_product_category() ) : ?>

            <?php

            $meta  = x_get_taxonomy_meta();
            $title = ( $meta['archive-title'] != '' ) ? $meta['archive-title'] : __( 'Category Archive', '__x__' );

            ?>

            <h1 class="h-landmark"><span><?php echo $title; ?></span></h1>

#3. Edit the above section as follows:

     <?php elseif ( is_category() || x_is_portfolio_category() || x_is_product_category() ) : ?>

            <?php

            $meta  = x_get_taxonomy_meta();
            $title = ( $meta['archive-title'] != '' ) ? $meta['archive-title'] : __( 'Category Archive', '__x__' );

            ?>

            <h1 class="h-landmark"><span><?php echo $title; ?></span></h1>
            <p class="p-landmark-desc"> <?php echo category_description(); ?> </p>

4) Finally you can style the p-landmark-desc class by adding the CSS rules into your child theme’s style.css file or via Customizer, Custom > CSS section using the menu Appearance -> Customize.

.p-landmark-desc {
    font-size: 14px;
    color: #336699;
}

After setting up your child theme make sure to check our Customization Best Practices Guide.

Hope that helps.

Hello,

I followed your instructions. I used already a child theme. I copied the landmark header php in the child section and edited it.

Somehow it does not work. Can you check if I did something wrong?

Thanks!

[Rue Nel]

Hello There,

Thanks for the updates!

Placed the file _landmark-header.php in your child theme’s folder wp-content/themes/x-child/framework/views/renew/.

Please let us know how it goes.

Dear Rue,

now it works. I run into another small problem.

https://www.wellcoll.nl/category/autoaanpassingen/ is a link the blog category “Autoaanpassingen” . I want to achieve that the full text of each post is shown here.

Any suggestions how to do that?

[Fred C]

Hi there,

what I found out is that cornerstone based blogpages text is nog shown. Is there a wasy to bypass this?

[Rad]

Hi Fred,

Post created with cornerstone contains shortcodes. And by default, WordPress will remove all HTML, Scripts, and shortcodes to generate plain text excerpt.

Because of that limitation, WordPress has its own built-in feature for manual excerpt. You can do that by editing your post and clicking Screen Options on the very top of the page. Toggle Excerpt on, then scroll down until you find the excerpt section and manually add you text excerpt.

Hope this helps.

Hey there,

Regretfully this isn’t a feature offered by X. It could be possible with custom development, but this would be outside the scope of support we can offer. You may wish to consult a developer to assist you with this.

Thanks for understanding. Take care!
