    We downloaded the child theme from your website months ago and have made many customizations to it. All our child theme customizations have worked except this one. I did copy the 404.php to the child theme and our site has always been set to use the child theme from the dashboard. However, for the 404.php it isn’t using the one in the child theme it is using the one in the parent theme. How can I get the site to use the one which is in the child theme instead?

    Hi Mahesh,

    Thanks, yes I do have Catch Updater but I think the problem is in our child theme. We hired a design company to do a bunch of redesign work for our department, which includes pamphlets, posters, letterhead, and our website. They’ve been adding a great deal of code to the child theme. They say the child theme is now fixed to work with the newest theme update, but it will likely need to keep getting fixed with future theme updates, which has me a bit worried. Is it a usual practice to make such extensive changes to a child theme? I could send you a copy of what they’ve done so far with our child theme, but I don’t see where I can send you an attachment.

    Hi Mahesh,

    I found a copy of the original child theme functions.php code I got from you and you’re right, that line must have been added later. We’ve had multiple people working on our site, and it seems someone has copied a bunch of code from the previous parent theme’s function.php file into the child theme’s function.php file. We’ll have to figure out and delete all the extra code and hopefully that will solve the problem. Thanks.

    Hi Mahesh,

    It didn’t work, but I’m not surprised because the style sheet in the child theme which the marketing company made for us is so extensive. I’ve made changes in some of their CSS which is clear to me, but with these last 2 issues I don’t know what to do. Thanks anyway for your suggestions, they are much appreciated!

    Hi Mahesh,

    Thanks! Your CSS got rid of the white space in the bottom of the footer and it looks much better!

    I guess maybe “sticky footer” might not be the right term for what I’m looking for. I just want the footer to be pushed to the bottom of the browser window when the content on the page is short which now causes the footer to be the middle of the browser window. But the footer shouldn’t stay at the bottom when there is enough content to push it to or below the bottom of the browser, and it shouldn’t stay at the bottom when users are scrolling up and down. I’m sorry if I’m not explaining it well. I tried the code from here http://www.cssstickyfooter.com/ but when I put the footer height that works in Firefox, it still doesn’t go all the way to the bottom in IE and Chrome.

    As for the logo, the body and the footer of the page each have the same left and right margins. The parent Adventurous Pro theme has it’s header also lined up to the same left and right margins giving the theme a nice uniform appearance. However, when the marketing group created the child theme CSS they added a second header (or divided the header into a second section) so now we have a red header on top followed by a white header right below. We would like content in the white header (the CISER logo on the left and the menu on the right) to have the same left and right margins as the body and the footer, so they all line up nicely like in the parent Adventurous Pro theme. The upper red header can keep wider margins and remain as it is.
