This should work. Is it because I am in the PHP area still? I am no technician at all.

help! panic!
here is the php from the child theme which worked fine before adding the new code (above this)

<?php

/*
* Add your own functions here. You can also copy some of the theme functions into this file.
* WordPress will use those functions instead of the original functions then.
*/

function custom_shortcode_func() {
ob_start();
echo “<span class=’post-meta-infos’>”;
echo “<time class=’date-container minor-meta updated’>”.get_the_time(get_option(‘date_format’)).”</time>”;
echo “<span class=’text-sep text-sep-date’>/</span>”;

if ( get_comments_number() != “0” || comments_open() ){

echo “<span class=’comment-container minor-meta’>”;
comments_popup_link( “0 “.__(‘Comments’,’avia_framework’),
“1 “.__(‘Comment’ ,’avia_framework’),
“% “.__(‘Comments’,’avia_framework’),’comments-link’,
“”.__(‘Comments Disabled’,’avia_framework’));
echo “</span>”;
echo “<span class=’text-sep text-sep-comment’>/</span>”;
}

if(!empty($cats))
{
echo ‘<span class=”blog-categories minor-meta”>’.__(‘in’,’avia_framework’).” “;
echo $cats;
echo ‘</span><span class=”text-sep text-sep-cat”>/</span>’;
}

echo ‘<span class=”blog-author minor-meta”>’.__(‘by’,’avia_framework’).” “;
echo ‘<span class=”entry-author-link” ‘.avia_markup_helper(array(‘context’ => ‘author_name’,’echo’=>false)).’>’;
echo ‘<span class=”vcard author”><span class=”fn”>’;
the_author_posts_link();
echo ‘</span></span>’;
echo ‘</span>’;
echo ‘</span>’;
echo ‘</span>’;
$output = ob_get_clean();
return $output;
}
add_shortcode(‘the_post_meta’, ‘custom_shortcode_func’);

function custom_shortcode_func2() {
ob_start();
echo the_category( ‘, ‘ );
$output = ob_get_clean();
return $output;
}
add_shortcode(‘the_category’, ‘custom_shortcode_func2’);

function custom_tags_shortcode() {
ob_start();
the_tags(‘‘.__(‘Tags:’,’avia_framework’).’ ‘);
$output = ob_get_clean();
return $output;
}
add_shortcode(‘the_post_tags’, ‘custom_tags_shortcode’);

website not longer works!

Thanks for the prompt reply!
UNFORTUNATELY:
oops! I get a “Fatal error” message!
luckily I could revert back and remove the code.
did I do something wrong?

Thanks Ismael!
some things worked and others not.
I have been fiddling about with in in inspection mode and tried to clean things up a bit.
Appreciate the clarification!

1 – still trying to figure out how to add the lines in-between the category sections.
(see #719334 where image is placed)

2 – how to increase the spacing between these lines – so there is also more space between the sub-category and the next main category item?
(which I can probably figure out once I have question “1” answered)

3 – the “roll-over” works but “current” not.
I assume there is an automatically programmed “current” based on menu color which makes it simply bolder

Have a great Monday! THe sun is shining. At least in Vienna

Thanks Andy
I would like to add a different text altogether to this.
It is a one off thing (ha! I hope)
: )

Dara

Thanks, very nice Rikard!
There is one more thing.
How/Where can one change the text which appears before the AUTHOR?
currently is says “by”
Our client wants something written in German.

thanks!

Oh please excuse there was a glitch.
it works now and thanks for the css!

best regards,
Dara

PS how to remove the comments?
css?

oops! sent you the incorrect css which I had already removed from the css (but thanks for the info on that) so disregard.
the “correct” CSS I tried but failed with is in the above thread #712462

All I am looking for is the CSS for sidebar widget menu:
category, roll-over, visited
sub-category, roll-over, visited
adjust the lines and line-height
etc,,,

best regards,
Dara

Thanks Ismael!
In BLOG posts only I would like to “align-left” the post-meta info.
In the main blog, category and tags pages I would like it to remain centered on the page.
Is there a way to do this with CSS?

Best regards,
Dara

Thanks! Quick reply! it works
but it also removes the dividing lines everywhere else
