Hi,
How do I add a link to news or events section’s caption on main page? Thank you
May 5, 2017 at 4:41 am #41737wensolutionsKeymasterHello @serdarangungmail-com,
To link the caption of news and event section you need to activate the child theme .
Child theme references :
https://codex.wordpress.org/Child_ThemesYou can also create the child theme using the plugin. Below is the link to one of them.
https://wordpress.org/plugins/wp-child-theme-generator/
After activating the child theme , in your child themes functions.php file paste below given code:

Hope this helps.
If you need any help further, please let us know.
Best Regards!!
May 5, 2017 at 4:52 am #41741serdarangun@gmail.comParticipantThank you for your quick reply. I did not install child theme. Can I apply it without having child theme?
May 5, 2017 at 7:33 am #41763wensolutionsKeymasterHello @serdarangungmail-com,
Child theme is recommended way of modifying an existing theme.
If you modify a theme directly and it is updated, then your modifications will be lost and not only this you can modify any function by using child theme .
So it is strongly recommended to use the child theme for any modification.
Hope this clears up the confusion.
Best Regards!!

We want to link on events caption (duyurular in turkish) to all events page:

May 16, 2017 at 6:05 am #42632wensolutionsKeymasterHello @serdarangungmail-com,
As we have inspected your site URL we found that you have included the code we have provided .
Also, you have not activated your child theme . If you directly paste those code in your parent theme functions.php then it might not work or will generate error .
So, please create a child theme from the plugin given below:
https://wordpress.org/plugins/wp-child-theme-generator/Now paste given code in your child themes functions.php file .
https://gist.github.com/anonymous/c320b9e3f617b6a6e71e84ad9e6b70e7
Hope this helps.
Best Regards!!
