Removing Registered Layouts

[Dave Navarro, Jr.]

I tried the code from:

Admin Management

To unregister layouts we don't use on our site, but I get "Undefined function genesis_unregister_layout()" errors.

I am using the latest release version of Genesis with the Dynamik Web Builder child-theme and I placed the test code in my functions.php

Was that function removed from Genesis?

Hi Dave,
Is this the format you are using in your functions.php file?

This is what I have right now:

// Unregister sidebar/content layout setting

if ( function_exists('genesis_unregister_layout') ) {
  genesis_unregister_layout( 'sidebar-content' );
  genesis_unregister_layout( 'content-sidebar-sidebar' );
  genesis_unregister_layout( 'sidebar-sidebar-content' );
  genesis_unregister_layout( 'sidebar-content-sidebar' );
}

The function genesis_unregister_layout() does not exist at the time this code runs in my functions.php

I know that the code in functions.php is running because I have other test code that does execute.

At the suggestion of StudioPress support, I am re-installing the latest release of Genesis.

Just downloaded and installed the latest release and still no go.

Hi,
I would try deactivating the Dynamik Web Builder child-theme and testing it on the Genesis Sample child theme to see if you can isolate the issue. If you still have an issue, then contact StudioPress support.

Okay, I put it into it's own stand-alone plugin and it's still not working. I'll download the sample child theme and try it with that.

The odd thing is that all of my other Genesis related code works... Just not this one function.

Bizarrely... The issue was load order...

I added a "add_action" wrapper

add_action( 'init', function () {

  if ( function_exists('genesis_unregister_layout') ) {
    genesis_unregister_layout( 'sidebar-content' );
    genesis_unregister_layout( 'content-sidebar-sidebar' );
    genesis_unregister_layout( 'sidebar-sidebar-content' );
    genesis_unregister_layout( 'sidebar-content-sidebar' );
  }

} );

And that fixed it. It's definitely something to do with DWB and load order.
