We will probably update avisio in the near future with better child theme support, until then modifying the "real" functions.php file has to be sufficient :)</p> <p>Cheers!<br /> Kriesi </p> http://www.kriesi.at/support/topic/alter-slideshow-height-but-using-child-theme#post-58366 Fri, 01 Jun 2012 06:26:58 +0000 Dude 58366@http://www.kriesi.at/support/ <p>Hi! </p> <p> I think Avisio does not completely support Child Themes (I hit some limitations myself when I worked on my website). I'll ask Kriesi to look into this issue. </p> <p> Best regards,<br /> Peter </p> http://www.kriesi.at/support/topic/alter-slideshow-height-but-using-child-theme#post-57993 Tue, 29 May 2012 20:27:12 +0000 condonpb 57993@http://www.kriesi.at/support/ <p>I wonder whether you can help I have followed the help and Have changed the slider height from 440px to 300px</p> <p>I have altered the functions.php to :</p> <p>$k_option['custom']['imgSize']['XL'] = array('width'=&gt;940, 'height'=&gt;300); // big images for fullsize pages and mainpage slider</p> <p>##################################################################<br /> # Get Theme informations and save them to PHP Constants<br /> ##################################################################<br /> $the_theme = get_theme_data(TEMPLATEPATH . '/style.css');<br /> $the_version = trim($the_theme['Version']);<br /> if(!$the_version) $the_version = "1";</p> <p>This file is a copy of the orininal and is in my child file</p> <p>I have also altered the style.css in the child file </p> <p>to /*The heights of the following 3 classes controll the slider height*/<br /> .slideshow{<br /> height:300px!important; /*this changes the height of the main image slider*/<br /> width:940px;<br /> overflow: hidden;<br /> position: relative;<br /> }</p> <p>.featured, .fadeout {<br /> height:300px!important;<br /> }</p> <p>.feature_excerpt{<br /> max-height:300px!important;<br /> padding:20px 30px 20px;<br /> bottom:0;<br /> display:none;<br /> font-size:13px;<br /> line-height:1.8em;<br /> position:absolute;<br /> width:250px;<br /> z-index:3;<br /> }</p> <p>However the images on transition start of OK then get distorted. I have found that if I alter the original functions.php file from 440px to 300px it coorects this but I thought the functions.php file should override this.</p> <p>Can you help please I can give you login details </p>
