Hello

I have a question – I’m trying integrate Privy with WordPress as described here:
https://help.privy.com/hc/en-us/articles/360008055313-Installing-Privy-on-WordPress-org

I’m using XStore Child theme, and in child theme only have access to style.css and functions.php

Do I need to edit main theme (add Privy code in header.php) for that ? What is the best practice ?

Second question my wordpress currently use php 5.6.4, is it ok to update it to php 7 (I’m on wp 5.1, xstore 5.1.3) ?
Site URL: hidden
Theme version: 5.1.3
WooCommerce version: 3.5.6

Hello there,

Thanks for being our customer. I am afraid we cannot guarantee full compatibility of our theme with third party extensions but our developers that will be on Monday available could check this.

Please, attach your WP-admin and FTP to test. Thanks.

Hello,

1) If you need to add the code to header.php file then copy header.php from the parent theme to child theme folder and make all the changes in child theme header.php file. The same situation with other files (not theme functions!) you want to edit. Read more about child themes and how it works https://developer.wordpress.org/themes/advanced-topics/child-themes/

2) XStore theme supports PHP 7, so I would recommend you to update XStore to 5.1.6.1, update all the included plugins (https://www.8theme.com/downloads) and then feel free to update PHP to 7.x.

Regards
