The min-height is only there to fix most of the pages. Any page that has shorter content doesn’t need that 3000px and then makes the page scroll when it doesn’t need to be. Is there a better way to make the column/sidebar automatically take on whatever height the content container is?
Thanks for your responses Josue!
So even the pages that are using the theme-specific backend editors to bring in columns/sidebar widgets/text areas, etc – these shouldn’t be removed with the theme change?
I think we figured it out! It appeared to be a server issue that we’ve now resolved.
Our only other outstanding questions is, when we upload and activate the new theme – will we lose the existing page content that pages with the backend editor are using? We understand that you typically have to redo menus and widgets, but we’re worried that switching themes will cause the content on pages to disappear as well. Can you advise?
We have decided to go with a fresh build and use a child theme, however, the child theme changes don’t seem to be taking effect. For example, we’re trying to use editing page.php and footer.php within the child theme folder but the site isn’t showing those changes to those files. The custom.css doesn’t seem to be taking either, the only changes to CSS we can make and see are the ones within the theme settings Quick CSS area. Finally, uploading background images via the theme settings to the footer or socket don’t take affect either.
Is there something we need to do to make the child theme work?
