Ok, got my FTP client all set up. Can you tell me the name of the file that you made the changes to earlier i.e. placing my contact info above one another so that I can download it and play with the html? If that is actually possible?!
Hi There,
To be honest, I’d like to let you know that if you don’t know PHP coding at least for beginner level then don’t touch FTP or any files of WordPress, it’s plugins or themes right now. Because if you do something wrong, the site will have numerous errors, which will cost time to re-fix.
If you desire is about HTML/CSS customization then go with Firebug, check this video on Firebug uses: http://www.woothemes.com/videos/how-to-use-firebug-to-modify-a-wordpress-theme/ How you can edit your themes using firebug. Check Coding standards: http://make.wordpress.org/core/handbook/coding-standards/
There are numerous websites (Free & Premium) in web which will teach you about PHP, HTML, CSS, WordPress & others. Just Google them to find or ask me to suggest some. Hope you won’t mind if I explained the real thing even if it sounds like an idiot. Because I think without proper knowledge of coding if you try to edit the theme files, you website can gone & make you or us trouble.
As you can see from above, you very kindly helped me place the text in my topbar to the right hand side of the bar, however you made the text into links and i would like to remove this feature, i don’t know how to change them just to normal text without messing up all the other styling?!
Hi there,
Please create a full back up of your website before following instructions below.
Please create a Child Theme for changes as this will make it safe on future updates:

Then you need to copy over file below (Using ftp):
YOURWEBSITE/wp-content/themes/x/framework/views/global/_topbar.php
to:
YOURWEBSITE/wp-content/themes/x-child-integrity-light/framework/views/global/_topbar.php
Please check this link for detailed information:
http://theme.co/x/member/kb/customization-best-practices/
Then you can find the code added there. Change it as you desire and upload file again.
Hope it helps.
I am already using a child theme, and also can’t see any code in that file so not sure what I am doing wrong, think that is too advanced for me! When you added the text into my topbar you just entered it into the topbar content section of the customiser, can this not just be edited?
Hi There,
I removed the hyperlinks from Topbar via Customize > Header > Topbar Content, except PHP or JavaScript coding you don’t need to deal with the theme files. Please keep ask your inquiries via Forum & we’ll glad to help you.
