Hello,

Thanks for creating such a wonderful theme. I’m now working with child themes… I’ve tried to look through the knowledge base as I’m pretty sure my mistake is simple.

I downloaded and installed the x-child.zip and activated it. I went into the child theme directory and edited the functions.php where it gave me a spot to add additional functions.

I went to add in a short code, and saved the file. I then edited a word press page to include that short cut and it just says [total] (the name of the short cut and not the result).

I found this thread: https://community.theme.co/forums/topic/child-theme-not-working/ but think things have changed since then since i looked at the zip file and it seems are the stacks use the same child template now?

Just wondering if you can un-confuse me 🙂

Thanks!

Hi There,

Thanks for writing in! Would you mind letting us know what shortcode you’re trying to add? And please provide us login credentials (wp-admin and FTP) in private reply, so we can take a closer look.

Cheers!

Hi,

There are syntax error in your code, there is no function name and you missed a closing bracket in your if statement.

Your code should look something like this

function get_success_total() {
     -- ADD SQL QUERY HERE --
}

add_shortcode("success_total", "get_success_total")

Hope that helps.

Thanks for catching that oversight. Can confirm the child theme is working great.

Thank you.
