The key working with a theme framework is to know the use of hooks. Mostly frameworks depend on existing or their own action to add function or element. In real life, this case closely related to create child theme based on existing theme frameworks. Whether you need to add, remove or alter an element, you need what is to know the action and functions hooked on it.

I frequently working with ThemeBLVD themes, you can read actions documentation in their web page. But to figured out functions behind an action I use a plugin called Simply Show Hooks.

After you Installed it, simply click the Simply Show Hooks menu, and all actions and functions hooked in, will be shown.

There, you can remove a function or add your own. One more thing, this plugin also can show filter hooks used in a theme.
