I’m using Simple Catch Pro.

I want a custom logo to go to another web address than

esc_url( home_url( ‘/’ ) )

I can do this by editing “simplecatch_functions.php” as follows
In the file simplecatch_functions.php on line no 233, is the following code:
      $simplecatch_headerdetails .= ‘<h1 id=”site-logo”>’.'<a href=”‘.esc_url( home_url( ‘/’ ) ).'” title=”‘.esc_attr( get_bloginfo( ‘name’, ‘display’ ) ).'”>’;

Replace the code with the following code:
$simplecatch_headerdetails .= ‘<h1 id=”site-logo”>’.'<a href=”‘.’http://www.utoronto.ca/home.htm&#8217;.'” title=”‘.esc_attr( get_bloginfo( ‘name’, ‘display’ ) ).'”>’;
I’ve made a chid theme but can’t get a function to modify
function simplecatch_headerdetails() {
There is a functions.php and a functions folder with simplecatch_functions.php
What do I put in the child theme to update this one line of code?
Thanks Bill

@william: You need to create child theme and then remove the function with action hook. It will be somewhat like the below code

// Unhook default Simple Catch Pro functions
function unhook_simplecatch_functions() {
// Don't forget the position number if the original function has one
remove_action( 'simplecatch_before_sidebartop', 'simplecatch_headerdetails', 10 );
}
add_action( 'init', 'unhook_simplecatch_functions' );

add_action( 'simplecatch_before_sidebartop', 'simplecatch_headerdetails_child', 10 );

 

/**
* Diplaying Header Logo, Site Title and Tagline
*/
function simplecatch_headerdetails_child() {

}

I recommend you to take the expert help for this.

Thank-you Sakin

It worked!  Just had to give the function file name in the child theme something other than functions.php ( which yielded white screen of nothing)

xout-functions.php

with this inside

<?php

/**

* Simple Catch Pro child functions and definitions

*

* unhook functions and replace headerinfo function

* I think

*

 

*/

 

 

/**

* Set the content width based on the theme’s design and stylesheet.

*/

// Unhook default Simple Catch Pro functions

function unhook_simplecatch_functions() {

// Don’t forget the position number if the original function has one

remove_action( ‘simplecatch_before_sidebartop’, ‘simplecatch_headerdetails’, 10 );

}

add_action( ‘init’, ‘unhook_simplecatch_functions’ );

add_action( ‘simplecatch_before_sidebartop’, ‘simplecatch_headerdetails_child’, 10 );

&nbsp;

 

 

/**

* Diplaying Header Logo, Site Title and Tagline

*/

function simplecatch_headerdetails_child() {

 

//delete_transient( ‘simplecatch_headerdetails’ );

 

global $simplecatch_options_settings;

$options = $simplecatch_options_settings;

 

if ( ( !$simplecatch_headerdetails = get_transient( ‘simplecatch_headerdetails’ ) ) && ( empty( $options[ ‘remove_header_logo’ ] ) || empty( $options[ ‘remove_site_title’ ] ) || empty( $options[ ‘remove_site_description’ ] ) ) ) {

echo ‘<!– refreshing cache –>’;

 

$simplecatch_headerdetails = ‘<hgroup class=”logo-wrap clearfix”>’;

 

if( empty( $options[ ‘remove_header_logo’ ] ) ) {

 

$simplecatch_headerdetails .= ‘<h1 id=”site-logo”>’.'<a href=”‘.’http://www.utoronto.ca/home.htm&#8217;.'” title=”‘.esc_attr( get_bloginfo( ‘name’, ‘display’ ) ).'”>’;

if ( !empty( $options[ ‘featured_logo_header’ ] ) ):

$simplecatch_headerdetails .= ‘<img src=”‘.esc_url( $options[‘featured_logo_header’] ).'” alt=”‘.get_bloginfo( ‘name’ ).'” />’;

else:

// if empty featured_logo_header on theme options, display default logo

$simplecatch_headerdetails .='<img src=”‘. get_template_directory_uri().’/images/logo.png” alt=”logo” />’;

endif;

$simplecatch_headerdetails .= ‘</a></h1>’;

}

 

if ( empty( $options[ ‘remove_site_title’ ] ) || empty( $options[ ‘remove_site_description’ ] ) ) {

 

$simplecatch_headerdetails .= ‘<div id=”site-details”>’;

 

if( empty( $options[ ‘remove_site_title’ ] ) ) {

$simplecatch_headerdetails .= ‘<h1 id=”site-title”><span><a href=”‘.esc_url( home_url( ‘/’ ) ).'” title=”‘.esc_attr( get_bloginfo( ‘name’, ‘display’ ) ).'”>’.esc_attr( get_bloginfo( ‘name’, ‘display’ ) ).'</a></span></h1>’;

}

if( empty( $options[ ‘remove_site_description’ ] ) ) {

$simplecatch_headerdetails .= ‘<h2 id=”site-description”>’.esc_attr( get_bloginfo( ‘description’ ) ).'</h2>’;

}

$simplecatch_headerdetails .= ‘</div>’;

}

 

$simplecatch_headerdetails .= ‘</hgroup>’;

 

set_transient( ‘simplecatch_headerdetails’, $simplecatch_headerdetails, 86940 );

}

echo $simplecatch_headerdetails;

} // simplecatch_headerdetails

add_action( ‘simplecatch_before_sidebartop’, ‘simplecatch_headerdetails’, 10 );

}

 

 

 

 

?>

The new version of Simple Catch Pro (2.0) added an if statement in “simplecatch_functions.php”

344 if ( ! function_exists( ‘simplecatch_headerdetails’ ) ) :

 

This has made modification of this function so much easier as I can include it in functions.php of my child theme and it replaces the the code enclosed in the above if statement.

Thanks

some day I’ll figure out hooks and filters but not today.

Cheers Bill
