Overwrite function in single.php Monochrome-Pro

[webdziner]

Hi, I have been trying to overwrite the function to display the featured image and gravatar in the header of Monochrome-Pro's single.php. I don't want to edit the file itself.
In my functions file I've tried
remove_action( 'genesis_before', 'monochrome_setup_full_width' );
and also

add_action('after_setup_theme', 'remove_parent_functions');
function remove_parent_functions() {
remove_action( 'genesis_before', 'monochrome_setup_full_width' );
}

How can I accomplish this? I have 5 custom post types, so I can create individual single-post-type.php pages, but, would rather use code in my functions.php file. Any ideas?

You're problem is a timing issue. Functions.php executes before single.php is loaded. You're removing an action that hasn't even been defined yet. If you don't want the action to load in single.php for certain post types, then edit single.php and wrap that action in a WordPress conditional that tests for the specific post types.

No Wonder. So, there's no way? I was wondering about using a custom post type template. But, it seems that those would have to be manually selected withing the Post attributes. Is there any way to assign it automatically?

I didn't want to modify the single.php. I hate to have to remember to re-modify files after an update, but, it would be easy enough to use a conditional. Thank You.

Some theme developers have done it this way:

Create a file called: genesis-changes.php. Save that in the /inc folder of the theme. Or create it if you don't have it.

Then in functions.php, add this below the line that says //Load Genesis which should be loading the init.php file.

// Genesis Changes
    include_once( get_stylesheet_directory() . '/inc/genesis-changes.php' );

Try that. Several third-party themes work that way.

That will load whatever you put in the genesis-changes.php file first.
