    Hi,

    I have just installed Catch Everest. I have a problem as I am with no programming knowledge but I have spent times to learn a bit from W3school.

    I notice that there is an underline on my site title, how to remove it and how to create a navigation bar?

    Thanks.

    @Uendi: I don’t know which underline you are talking about. I need your site URL to see it.

    About the menu, you can use custom menu from “Appearance => Menu”. See this http://en.support.wordpress.com/menus/

    Note: Don’t edit core theme files, functions and css. If you want to change any css then you can add it in “Custom CSS” box that you will find in “Appearance => Theme Options”. If you want to change the code theme files then you need to build child theme and do the edits.

    Hi,

    I have gone to appearance = Theme Options = Custom CSS, and change :

    a {text-decoration:none;}
    #header-menu ul.menu { list-style-type: none;}

    However, there are still a lot of things I need to change. Please advise.

    Thanks.

    @Sakin: I don’t get what you means. From Appearance = Menu, I can see my style.css file.

    @Uendi: Your site don’t have style.css fine that is why you are seeing all those. The style.css will hide it.

    I see that you have build child theme but loading it incorrectly. As when I view source your site source to check style.css, I found this http://uendi.com/wp-content/themes/catch-everestchild/style.css

    But there is file is not found. So, please fix this and all will be fixed.

    Hi Sakin,

    I only did a few things after creating the child theme :-

    1. I hide some of the things.
    2. Change colour for the site title and background.
    3. shortcode : a {text-decoration:none;} #header-menu ul.menu { list-style-type: none;}

    4. set custom menu
    5. Add pages like store and contact us.

    That is all I did.

    @Uendi: For this all you don’t need to build child theme. Just active the Parent Theme itself. You can add those custom CSS in “Appearance => Theme Options => Custom CSS” box. You need to build child theme only if you want to edit any core theme functions. Just make the parent theme active and add the css in Custom CSS box and it will work fine.

    Hi Sakin,

    Can I double check with you, I have to download the catch everest theme to my computer. After that, I have to use FTP to create child theme. While also has to create a style.css file.

    /*
    Theme Name: catch-everest child
    Theme URI: http://catchthemes.com/
    Description: Child Theme for the Catch Everest
    Author: Sakin (Catch Themes)
    Author URI: http://catchthemes.com/
    Template: catch-everest
    Version: 0.3
    */

    @import url(“../catch-everest/style.css”);

    Then I have to drag the style.css file to the child theme. After that, go to dashboard there and activate the child theme, is it right?

    yes that’s right but check your FTP for file style.css in your child theme directory “catch-everestchild”. The child theme sytle.css is missing in your live site. You can paste the following link in your browser and see that i mean. You will not find this file http://uendi.com/wp-content/themes/catch-everestchild/style.css

    Hi Sakin,

    I have fixed everything and now you can go and see.

    Kindly please advise me how to:

    1. Move the “Home” to the left,
    2. Change the color from grey to blue for the menu bar,
    3. Change the highlight color from black to blue for the menu bar,
    4. Place the “Search” words next to the search box,
    5. Adjust the size of the search box longer a bit,
    6. Adjust the size of the site to be narrow a bit,
    7. Adjust the white spacing between the top and the site title to be longer,

    and is there a way to insert a logo and the site title together on the left top.

    Thank you very much.

    @Uendi:
    1. Move the “Home” to the left,
    — Add the following CSS

    #header-menu ul.menu{
    text-align: left;
}

    2. Change the color from grey to blue for the menu bar,
    — Add the following CSS

    #header-menu {
    background-color: #1E73BE;
}

    3. Change the highlight color from black to blue for the menu bar,
    — Add the following CSS

    #header-menu .menu .current-menu-item > a, #header-menu .menu .current-menu-ancestor > a, #header-menu .menu .current_page_item > a, #header-menu .menu .current_page_ancestor > a, #colophon .menu .current-menu-item a {
    background-color: #1E73BE;
}

    4. Place the “Search” words next to the search box,
    — Add the following CSS

    #header-right #searchsubmit {
    display: inline-block;
    float: left;
}
#header-right #s {
    float: left;
}

    6. Adjust the size of the site to be narrow a bit,
    — I don’t get this. Please explain.

    7. Adjust the white spacing between the top and the site title to be longer,
    — Adjust the padding top and ddd the following CSS

    #hgroup {
    padding-top: 5rem;
}

    and is there a way to insert a logo and the site title together on the left top.
    — Why don’t you have site title in the logo image and then add it from “Appearance => Header”

    Hi Sakin,

    Thank you for your kind advise.

    I have a few further question, as :-

    http://prntscr.com/17zrme

    http://prntscr.com/17zrcn

    http://prntscr.com/17zqpw

    http://prntscr.com/17zvia

    I want to add in “Contact Us” text to the menu bar. My question is, for this “Contact Us”, I need to refer to “Add page” or “Add Post” to write my info, and after that, I will go to the Appearance = Menu, to add in Contact Us ?
