(Locked) Envato's Most Wanted: Layers Child Themes - $10,000

Looks like a good idea but the framework seems to be pretty limited in functionality.
Probably Envato should put more efforts to raise extensions development. This might boost developers interest to engage into the process by means of using 3rd party extensions… You know, less efforts = easy money :slight_smile: Which always seems attractive :-)))

Layers already support Google Fonts by default. You can choose the font from the Customizer or set the default font inside functions.php

You sure? i don’t think so :frowning: style kit is not intended to change things inside function.php if we want it for sale on ThemeForest…

Hi there,

Layers has a very large Google Fonts selection, if the font you want to use is available under Site Settings > Fonts, then you can add it by setting the default fonts for your theme:

Nodariko is correct, StyleKits don’t support functions.php file editing.

What kind of font icons are you looking at including?

Hi Obox, thanks for getting back, i wouls like to load fonts like Font-awesome

77

If we submit child theme in layers category then are we allowed to to create and submit full wordpress theme (for example with visual composer) in wordpress category?

78

@nodariko @sammycorp

We are considering the inclusion of Font Awesome in the future as an advanced option for Style Kit developers, but we have no timeline on that yet.

Thanks for the feedback guys

Hello, I want to edit the JS of the header, I’ve dequeued(the original) and re-enqueued my own custom ‘layers-framework.js’ its a good practice to do this? or there is a better way to edit the JS files of layerswp?

We would recommend just including your own JS file and leaving layers-framework.js active, that’s the safest route, if we push an update your theme may become out of date and you’ll have to update your own laters-framework.js to match ours.

Hi there,

With Layers we do not allow the enqueueing of Bootstrap CSS, and especially no dequeuing of the framework.css.

Fontawesome enqueue’ing is straight forward though, you can enqueue it in functions.php

You can include custom widgets in Child Themes, a few developers have done so already. We’d prefer widgets to be added as extensions though.

Here is a link to Widget documentation: http://docs.layerswp.com/plugin-creation-guide/#adding-layers-builder-widgets
