Hi Michele,

I honestly don’t know because I haven’t tried it.

But you could take a copy of your custom-functions file, then try making a change using Openhook, check that it’s worked and then reverse it by deleting the change in Openhook.

If it doesn’t work you can always restore your custom-functions file from the copy you took before making the change.

I’d be interested to know if it works – can you let us know if you try it?

(And if you get stuck with anything let me know – I should be able to straighten it out for you)

Cheers,

Martin.

I’m a bit shy about touching anything having to do with modifying the code at this point. I made an error to the custom.functions.php core file that sent me into a sweat for a couple hours. That just tells you I don’t know a lot, yet!
So, I love OpenHook but am wondering now if I insert PHP, click the box and save and don’t like the results can I back out of it?
Just go back and delete PHP, untick the box and save?

Tom, hi,

Yep – you’re right!

My only defense was that I was an early user of OpenHook, and in the early versions you had to save after each step.

Can’t remember when Rick changed that but it’s definitely a lot more convenient now, because you often need to make changes in more than one field for a single customisation.

Cheers,

Martin.

Great post, but I caught one thing you might want to check:

You need to save each hook that you update, as you update it. If you’re editing multiple hooks don’t leave it till the end to save them – the Little Ass Save Button will only save your last one.

This is actually the opposite of what the open-hook dialog says, which reads:
Please note that using any of the save buttons on this page will save all of the displayed fields. Take care not to save unwanted changes. You’ve been warned.

I don’t really understand your question, since I would not expect to see the code for either of those items you mentioned displaid to readers.

However, where you are adding text that will be displaid to readers you need to adjust the size by means of in-line CSS. Use the element ‘font-size’ and set its size to whatever you want.

Cheers,

Martin.

And OpenHook has Little Ass Save Buttons

This is a magic plugin – I install it on any site where I’m installing or working with Thesis

Looking forward to playing around with this…maybe not for a little while. My friend and I downloaded Thesis 1.6 and both busted out laughing at the Big Ass Save Button.”

Scott, hi,

Open Hook is great, isn’t it? And Rick upgrades it every now and again so it keeps getting better and better. Once you’ve got these installed (Thesis and OpenHook) there’s not much need to ever go hunting for themes again.

Cheers,

Martin.

I installed open hooks before really working on my blog. I had done a lot of study and bought Thesis before ever starting. I had found openhooks while doing my research. I didn’t realize what a blog without OH looked like until recently.

I will never go back!!

Thesis and OH rules!!
