Hello Themeco,

Thanks for a good theme! I wonder if you could help me with a few features. I want a blank space between the menu and content block below so the background image is visible. I also want to make the widget area a bit smaller. In the widget area, I also want a transparency gap. On top of that, I also want the menu to be full width not like it is now with the boxed design. I want to have boxed layout with a background image but the menu should be stretched to full width.

I attach an example how I’m trying to build the site and then you can maybe help me what setting I should use? Maybe I didn’t pick the perfect demo content? Let me know the settings and if I need to add some global CSS to make this happened.

Hi there,

Thanks for writing in.

Would you mind providing your admin login credentials in private reply? Your site is behind the coming soon page and I can only check it by logging in.

And I’m not sure about the relation of content dock from your provide ideal site. I don’t see any content dock on their site.

Thanks!

Hi there,

#1 Please export customizer setting and import it after activation child theme, this way you’ll transfer all customization from parent to child theme.

A child theme is a theme that inherits the functionality of another theme, called the parent theme. Child themes allows you to modify, or add to the functionality of that parent theme instead of modifying the core theme files directly. The problem with modifying core theme files is that your changes are in danger of being overwritten if and when you update the theme to the latest version down the road. This is obviously an undesirable outcome, especially if you’ve made dozens of adjustments throughout the theme. Ultimately, child themes are great for a few different reasons:

• If you modify an existing theme and it is updated, your changes will be lost. With a child theme, you can update the parent theme (which might be important for security or functionality) and still keep your changes.
• It can speed up development time.
• It’s a great way to get started if you are just learning WordPress theme development.

Setting up a child theme actually takes a little bit of work as you need to create a new directory for the child theme, specify the parent theme so WordPress knows where to apply the new changes, enqueue the parent theme’s main CSS file, et cetera. You might also want to setup a functions.php file for various pieces of functionality that you want to add or modify. Fortunately, we’ve done all the heavy lifting for you in this area and all you need to do is use our provided child theme, which requires none of the setup listed above.

#2

If I want to change the name of the child theme where and how do I do that?

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. X is quite extensible with child themes, so there are plenty of possibilities.

#3 In regards with customization in initial post, please add following code in Customize -> Custom -> Global CSS :

.site {
    background-color: transparent;
}
.x-main.full {
    background-color: #fff;
}
.x-navbar-wrap {
    margin-bottom: 19px;
}

I also want to make the widget area a bit smaller. In the widget area, I also want a transparency gap.

Please provide us with screen shot.

On top of that, I also want the menu to be full width not like it is now with the boxed design. I want to have boxed layout with a background image but the menu should be stretched to full width.

It’s not possible unless with custom development which is outside the scope of our support. if you’re looking for something like this : http://demo.theme.co/integrity-1/pages/sidebar-right/, switch to Full width layout and select one of page templates with sidebar.

Hope it helps.

Hi there,

2. You can edit your child theme’s style.css and change its name there ( Theme Name ).

3. Please add this CSS as well,

.x-container.max {
    max-width: 100%;
}
.x-container.width {
    width: 95%;
}
.x-content-sidebar-active .x-main {
    width: 73.536945%;
}
.entry-wrap {
    padding: 20px;
}

Hope this helps.
