NB: do NOT make changes in this file. all your tweaks go in your child's functions.php so with that you can either override the function completely. <pre><code>function childtheme_override_postheader_postmeta(){ //do your thing }</code></pre> or you can use filters... which you know are available anywhere you see apply_filters <pre><code>return apply_filters('thematic_postheader_postmeta',$postmeta);</code></pre> so to filter you'd do something like: <pre><code>function child_postmeta($postmeta){ $postmeta = "ADD BACON!

I have previously only worked pretty straight forward themes with a few template files, functions.php and a stylesheet. This is the first time I am working with a theme framework to create a child theme. I want to edit the Entry Meta, and Entry Utility areas but I can't find where thematic creates the loop and what I need to add to my functions.php I understand that I need to modify a default thematic hook and replace it with my own. But which hook and where it is located?

Ok so to understand 'yourscript'. 'yourscript' is the handle you have defined first with: wp_enqueue_script('yourscript', JS . '/path-to-your-script.js'); THEN this function above also defines it as the script sitting in /path-to-your-script.js. This is my understanding. Thank you so much for getting me on a higher level of understanding, I think I am ready to get my hands dirty..

'yourscript' in my example is the handle for that script. think of it as a unique name for that script. it's purpose is so that 10 plugins can say enqueue the script with the handle 'jquery' and jquery will actually only be loaded once. you can also deregister a script if you know its handle. good for working w/ a plugin like Contact 7 which loads its script everywhere even though you probably only need it on the contact page. 2. add the bacon function to your child theme's functions.php glad bacon could be of service! ;) ThomasTheme-as on "MIA - Basic Hook Customization Understandings Needed.." http://themeshaper.com/forums/topic/mia-basic-hook-customization-understandings-needed#post-21469 Wed, 25 May 2011 20:04:44 +0000 ThomasTheme-as 21469@http://themeshaper.com/forums/ Wow thank you so much! I am self learning and a slow one at that, so I do so appreciate your patience and good effort with me. Two more questions, if I may press you further: (1) Referring to helgathehelpfulviking's jQuery post where she/you mention(s): wp_enqueue_script('yourscript', JS . '/path-to-your-script.js'); Is 'yourscript', the script that you placed in the js folder? (2) where typically would the add_bacon function be added? To the footer or as joperron mentions to be made in the functions.php file. The add_bacon example really gave me the necessary understanding to move forward. helgatheviking on "MIA - Basic Hook Customization Understandings Needed.." http://themeshaper.com/forums/topic/mia-basic-hook-customization-understandings-needed#post-21467 Wed, 25 May 2011 16:53:31 +0000 helgatheviking 21467@http://themeshaper.com/forums/ add html code anywhere: <pre><code>function add_bacon(){ ?> write as much bacon-flavored html as you like <?php } add_action('thematic_hook_of_your_choice','add_bacon');</code></pre> add scripts to the footer (or anywhere really) <pre><code>function add_bacon_script() {?> <script> jQuery.noConflict(); jQuery(document).ready(function($){ alert(bacon); }); </script> ?> add_action('wp_footer','add_bacon_script');</code></pre> i do recommend that you go read my thread that joperron linked to.. which explains how to properly enqueue scripts. you can move the whole enqueue scripts thing out of the header and into the footer. i've done it, but often run into problems w/ plugins just willy-nilly adding scripts to wp_head which results in a lot of breakage b/c jquery hasn't loaded yet. for reference: <pre><code>function clean_header(){ // JS - MOVE TO FOOTER remove_action('wp_head', 'wp_print_scripts'); remove_action('wp_head', 'wp_print_head_scripts', 9); remove_action('wp_head', 'wp_enqueue_scripts', 1); add_action('wp_footer', 'wp_enqueue_scripts', 1); add_action('wp_footer', 'wp_print_scripts', 10); add_action('wp_footer', 'wp_print_head_scripts', 20); // CLEAN UP HEADER remove_action('wp_head','thematic_head_scripts'); //thematic dropdowns remove_action( 'wp_head', 'wlwmanifest_link'); // Removes link for Windows Live Writer users remove_action( 'wp_head', 'wp_generator'); // Removes WP version remove_action( 'wp_head', 'rsd_link' ); // Removes unneeded Really Simple Discovery link remove_action( 'wp_head', 'start_post_rel_link'); //Remove relational start link remove_action( 'wp_head', 'adjacent_posts_rel_link_wp_head'); // Remove prev/next relational links //use google's jquery if (!is_admin()){ wp_deregister_script( 'jquery' ); wp_register_script('jquery', 'http://ajax.googleapis.com/ajax/libs/jquery/1.5.0/jquery.min.js'); wp_enqueue_script('jquery'); } } add_action('init','clean_header');</code></pre> joperron on "MIA - Basic Hook Customization Understandings Needed.." http://themeshaper.com/forums/topic/mia-basic-hook-customization-understandings-needed#post-21466 Wed, 25 May 2011 16:10:24 +0000 joperron 21466@http://themeshaper.com/forums/ Hey there, You can put you add_action right under your function in your functions.php file.

My learning is at the tip of my tongue but not yet speaking.. What I was wanting to know are the steps to making a customization with HTML or jQuery and hooking it in to a Theme. Lets say I want to add HTML code to the footer, lets say in particular to the bottom portion would I do as follows? (1) Create a function in the functions.php outlining the HTML, giving it a name, i.e. function my_footer and then (2) Hooking into the footer by placing : add_action('thematic_below_footer', 'my_footer') into the footer.php file? ALSO How do I "enqueue" javascript into a footer, would I do so like follows: (1) Allow for jQuery in the footer by creating function in functions.php file as in: function my_theme_js() { wp_enqueue_script('jQuery); wp_print_scripts(); } add_action('wp_enqueue_scripts', 'my_theme_js') (2) In footer.php introduce javascript by invoking: add_action('thematic_belowfooter', 'my_theme_js') (3) then write in javascript in footer.
