Hi:

If I activate Breadcrumbs on my business site (http://www.accuratecommunications.com) they appear between my top menu and my Featured Slider. That looks awful.

Is there a way to have them appear directly below my Featured Slider?

Sorry, please notify me

Hi Orlando,

For that, you will need to make some modifications via child theme.

First, create a child theme for current theme. Check tutorial here for details on creating a child theme.

Then, add following code to child theme’s functions.php file.

/**
 * Function to move breadcrumb in child theme below slider
 */ 
function catchresponsive_child_move_breadcrumb() {
	remove_action( 'catchresponsive_after_header', 'catchresponsive_add_breadcrumb', 50 );
	add_action( 'catchresponsive_before_content', 'catchresponsive_add_breadcrumb', 15 );

}
add_action( 'init', 'catchresponsive_child_move_breadcrumb' );

Let me know how it goes.

Regards,
Pratik

You forgot to add the link for the tutorial.

Please hover above here, the link is there.

I did as you suggested but now I don’t have breadcrumbs anywhere.

Take a look: http://www.accuratecommunications.com

Actually, erase that. I do have breadcrumbs but they are still above the Featured Slider

[Pratik]

I checked the site and it is still using the parent theme. You will need to set the theme to child theme.

Can you check and let me know, then I will check it again.

That’s because it’s breaking my site.

When I upload the child theme and activate it I get a white screen of death.

Then, when I remove the child theme via FTP I’m left with a broken site, forcing me to replace the original theme with a fresh copy.

I guess I’m a little over my head in this one. I’ll live without the breadcrumbs.

Maybe you can post the content of your child theme’s functions.php file here, then I can see what’s wrong?

<?php
/**
* Child Theme functions and definitions
*
*/

/**
* Loading Parent theme stylesheet
*
*/
add_action( ‘wp_enqueue_scripts’, ‘catchresponsive_child_enqueue_styles’ );
function catchresponsive_child_enqueue_styles() {
wp_enqueue_style( ‘catchresponsive-parent-style’, get_template_directory_uri() . ‘/style.css’ );
}

/**
* Function to move breadcrumb in child theme below slider
*/
function catchresponsive_child_move_breadcrumb() {
remove_action( 'catchresponsive_after_header', 'catchresponsive_add_breadcrumb', 50 );
add_action( 'catchresponsive_before_content', 'catchresponsive_add_breadcrumb', 15 );

}
add_action( 'init', 'catchresponsive_child_move_breadcrumb' );

Can you try code given here: http://pastebin.com/b2QAe2VE and activate child theme?

[Orlando Mergal]

Yes, it seems to work. But when I activate the child theme all the settings and custom CSS that I have on my regular theme disappear and I’m left with the theme the way it comes.

Right now I don’t have the time to go over all my settings one by one and figure out what I had done in the original.

Unless there’s a way to export all those settings and import them into the child theme I think I’ll be better off leaving things the way they were.

[Pratik]

The settings should have transferred unless there is an issue. Once its done, you will need to go through it one by one I am afraid. Please let me know if you need further help.

Pratik
