    I was just able to get over-riding the blog template files from my child theme working properly. My earlier test to check if this was working was flawed, and upon further testing I was able to establish it is working as expected. I apologize for the false alarm on this issue.

    I know also see that the text formatting is apparently lost since only the post excerpt is being shown in the blog posts list.

    The New Post Form also has support for the tinymce editor, but when I do any text formatting it doesn’t get displayed when I view the blog posts list. It does show up on the single post view though!

    Should the blog posts list be showing the text formatting as well?

    Looking forward to hearing if over-riding the blog display template is still possible from a child theme.

    I added a custom field on my New Post Form, but it doesn’t seem to get displayed on the blog display or single post screen.

    Should custom fields be displaying by default? Or do I need to add the shortcode for custom fields to the blog template files?

    I’m trying to use the technique described above to override the post appearance in my child theme, but it doesn’t seem to be working.

    I’m setting up a BuddyBoss site and added BuddyBlog Pro to provide a way for my members to have a blog on their profile.

    I want to modify the layout of the blog entries, and created a /buddyblog/buddyboss/default directory in my child theme, but the theme doesn’t seem to be loading my customized file.

    I noticed that there isn’t a corresponding /buddyblog/buddyboss directory in the /buddyboss-theme that is my child theme’s parent, so I’m not sure it knows to look at my overriding file.

    Please advise how I can customize the display of my blog entries. Can’t get overriding template files from my child theme to work as described.
