I think I ll add all this through theme options later.

Here is the override: <pre><code>function child_override_blogdescription() { echo "<div id=\"blog-description\" class=\"prefix_1 grid_12 sufix_1 omega\">" . get_bloginfo('description') . "</div>"; } add_action('thematic_header', 'child_override_blogdescription',4);</code></pre> And here is how it is rendered: <pre><code><div id="blog-description" class="prefix_1 grid_12 sufix_1 omega"> Just another WordPress site </div> <div id="blog-description"> Just another WordPress site </div></code></pre> Again, any idea what I am doing wrong? I ve omitted <code>add_action('thematic_header', 'child_override_blogdescription',4);</code> like you suggested but then override is not picked up... sheky on "Widgets output two times" http://themeshaper.com/forums/topic/widgets-output-two-times#post-24207 Thu, 08 Dec 2011 18:16:34 +0000 sheky 24207@http://themeshaper.com/forums/ Hmm, when I remove it, doesn't output anything. I see that the problem is with processing the dynamic_sidebar() in the override function I just can't figure out what it is. When I pass dummy text in override function it works as it should, when I put same dynamic_sidebar() anywhere else it works as it should. Any idea what could it be? I thought this will be faster than working with theme options, but it took too much of my time... :/ helgatheviking on "Widgets output two times" http://themeshaper.com/forums/topic/widgets-output-two-times#post-24194 Thu, 08 Dec 2011 04:37:43 +0000 helgatheviking 24194@http://themeshaper.com/forums/ ok, just had to ask some basics. still don't think widgets it the best way. why not a theme option? BUT, as i was getting ready to test this on my own install i looked more closely at your code <pre><code>function childtheme_override_blogdescription() { if (is_category('ekologija')) { echo "<div id=\"blog-description\">" . thematic_before_widget_area('lul-ekologija-tagline') . dynamic_sidebar('lul-ekologija-tagline') . thematic_after_widget_area('lul-ekologija-tagline') . "</div>"; } elseif (is_category('magazin')) { echo "<div id=\"blog-description\">". dynamic_sidebar('lul-magazin-tagline') . "</div>"; } elseif (is_category('aktivart')) { echo "<div id=\"blog-description\">" . thematic_before_widget_area('lul-aktivart-tagline') . dynamic_sidebar('lul-aktivart-tagline') . thematic_after_widget_area('lul-aktivart-tagline') . "</div>"; } else { echo "<div id=\"blog-description\">" . thematic_before_widget_area('lul-home-tagline') . dynamic_sidebar('lul-home-tagline') . thematic_after_widget_area('lul-home-tagline') . "</div>"; } } add_action('thematic_header','childtheme_override_blogdescription',4); //the culprit. this line is unnecessary when using an override</code></pre> when you declare childtheme_override anything it is automatically added to the appropriate hook via thematic's core. you don't have to add it yourself w/ an add_action(). hence you are adding it a second time. remove the add_action line and it should work just fine... though i'd still advise another route. sheky on "Widgets output two times" http://themeshaper.com/forums/topic/widgets-output-two-times#post-24191 Thu, 08 Dec 2011 01:20:05 +0000 sheky 24191@http://themeshaper.com/forums/ Yes I have included it in child functions.php with include('library/widget-areas.php'); and widgets are registered, I see them in the admin panel. I have to use widgets as other people who will adminstrate the site are not tech-savy, and that content will be frequently changed and updated. But, yes, hardcoding it is my plan B. I am just very curious about this as this is first time I am using Thematic, and besides this glitch I am very much inclined in using it in the future. helgatheviking on "Widgets output two times" http://themeshaper.com/forums/topic/widgets-output-two-times#post-24190 Thu, 08 Dec 2011 01:02:39 +0000 helgatheviking 24190@http://themeshaper.com/forums/ why do you need a widget to replace the blog description? why not just write it into the childtheme_override function you have obviously already figured out? also unless you have specifically included childtheme library/widget-areas.php through an include or require in your child's functions.php i'm not 100% sure this file would get included automatically. i don't know that template hierarchy extends to sub-folders and am inclined to think it is only for specific WP templates, plus functions.php and style.css sidenote- please put code between backtick marks. makes it a lot easier to see what is code and what is narrative sheky on "Widgets output two times" http://themeshaper.com/forums/topic/widgets-output-two-times#post-24181 Wed, 07 Dec 2011 17:38:37 +0000 sheky 24181@http://themeshaper.com/forums/ Hi, I want to add specific widget areas on custom category pages to override thematic_blogdescription(). Here is what I have done: 1. registerd new sidebars in childtheme library/widget-areas.php <code> function lul_home_tagline() { register_sidebar(array( 'admin_menu_order' => 210, 'name' => 'lul-home-tagline', 'id' => 'lul-home-tagline', 'description' => __('some text', 'thematic'), 'before_widget' => thematic_before_widget(), 'after_widget' => thematic_after_widget(), 'before_title' => thematic_before_title(), 'after_title' => thematic_after_title(), 'priority' => 1,) ); } add_action('init', 'lul_home_tagline'); function lul_magazin_tagline() { register_sidebar(array( 'admin_menu_order' => 220, 'name' => 'lul-magazin-tagline', 'id' => 'lul-magazin-tagline', 'description' => __('some text.', 'thematic'), 'before_widget' => thematic_before_widget(), 'after_widget' => thematic_after_widget(), 'before_title' => thematic_before_title(), 'after_title' => thematic_after_title(), 'priority' => 2,) ); } add_action('init', 'lul_magazin_tagline'); function lul_ekologija_tagline() { register_sidebar(array( 'admin_menu_order' => 230, 'name' => 'lul-ekologija-tagline', 'id' => 'lul-ekologija-tagline', 'description' => __('Prostor u koji se unosi tekst, slike, kod za prostor pored logoa na stranama kategorije ekologija.', 'thematic'), 'before_widget' => thematic_before_widget(), 'after_widget' => thematic_after_widget(), 'before_title' => thematic_before_title(), 'after_title' => thematic_after_title(), 'priority' => 3,) ); } add_action('init', 'lul_ekologija_tagline'); </code> 2. Added childtheme_override_blogdescription() in my childetheme functions.php <code> function childtheme_override_blogdescription() { if (is_category('ekologija')) { echo "<div id=\"blog-description\">" . thematic_before_widget_area('lul-ekologija-tagline') . dynamic_sidebar('lul-ekologija-tagline') . thematic_after_widget_area('lul-ekologija-tagline') . "</div>"; } elseif (is_category('magazin')) { echo "<div id=\"blog-description\">". dynamic_sidebar('lul-magazin-tagline') . "</div>"; } elseif (is_category('aktivart')) { echo "<div id=\"blog-description\">" . thematic_before_widget_area('lul-aktivart-tagline') . dynamic_sidebar('lul-aktivart-tagline') . thematic_after_widget_area('lul-aktivart-tagline') . "</div>"; } else { echo "<div id=\"blog-description\">" . thematic_before_widget_area('lul-home-tagline') . dynamic_sidebar('lul-home-tagline') . thematic_after_widget_area('lul-home-tagline') . "</div>"; } } add_action('thematic_header','childtheme_override_blogdescription',4); </code> 3. For some reason widget area outputs widget twice, with weird mark-up like so: <code> <li id="text-2" class="widgetcontainer widget_text"> <div class="textwidget">text widget text</div> // this was the first one <div id="blog-description"> <div id="lul-home-tagline" class="aside"> <ul class="xoxo"> 1 // this was the second one, and this is the markup I created in override function but it only pulls this weird '1' </div> </code> I was adding block of code by block of code in my override function to try to track when the duplication occurres and it happens when I call <code>dynamic_sidebar('lul-ekologija-tagline')</code>. I was poking around this all day, I don't have any plugins instaled, so if anyone has idea what coulde have gone wrong, I would apreciate it if you could help me out. Many thanks in advance! Sheky
