Sorry for delayed response as yesterday WordPress 4.7 was released and we had to update a few themes. Now for this theme there is no need for a child theme as you can place your Custom CSS in appearance>theme options>basic settings>Custom CSS box.
No need for a child theme to be added. You can add additional templates into this current theme itself because update of a theme does not overwrite custom templates which you create on your own.
Can you please explain this further? i am using a child theme and getting lots of problems. What if i want to edit more than just the css? Can you please explain child themeing further?
Hello, we have just bought this theme. We are trying to create a child theme like usual. When we activate the child theme it totally breaks the website. Most of the javascript doesn’t work and the layout get misaligned.
I have read elsewhere on this forum that the answer is to use the css editor built into the UI. But what if we want to go deeper? We need to make custom post types and we need to modify templates. Can you explain please how child-theming works for this theme?
I am created a child theme referencing bizness pro theme. When I choose to customize the theme the Basic and Header sections hold my changes. However, once I get to the Front Page & Footer sections I can edit and see my changes in the preview window but upon saving they do not change on my site. Same thing for footer data that has changed except that I edit and change tabs from text to visual to save and nothing appears and once saved nothing appears in the text box and nothing is updated on live site.
SKT Construction Pro comes with a home page gallery. That gallery loads original images as thumbnails, which are too big and slow down page load. For example, in the gallery section on the home page, the images display at like 300×200, yet the theme calls the full-sized images to fill these spots (in my case, the images are HUGE: 3000×2000). So basically, the site is serving 12 massive images in spaces where their medium or even small thumbs will do, and it slows the page down.
But response is not what I am looking for: “Simple solution to this is when you set up an image as a featured image you are given option of size i.e. large, small, thumbnail or medium. Kindly select medium size to solve this problem.”
The problem with the simple solution is this: Let’s say I resize images down to 300×200 for example… That will work to speed up the page load, but when a user clicks on those 350px wide gallery images, they only get a 300×200 lightbox image that comes up.
The ideal solution, for me, would be to modify the script in a child theme so that the gallery displays the medium thumbnails, but links to the original, larger image. If you could direct me to where the gallery script calls the images for home page display and I can change the img src to medium and the href link to the larger image.

1) How I can reduce the vertical space between menu items in the sidebar?
I tried the following code in style.css of the child theme: #sidebar ul li a {line-height: 16px!important;}
but it does not work.
2) In the Blog entries date appears in the format “j F, Y” and I want that appears in the format “d/m/Y” in all languajes. How can I fix this?
