I can't help with PHP coding and don't know what the owner/user requirements 
may be for this website, but sorting out some ad-hoc code which arguably may 
not even need to be there, will only prolong pain and add to dev costs at a 
future point in time.

I will instead make a general recommendation for you to consider.  Replace the 
theme with one which is not abandon-ware and is as close to the existing as 
the website owners will accept.  Back up the fs and the database just in case, 
disable all plugins, download the new theme, disable old - enable new theme, 
enable all plugins and see what you get in terms of layout and functionality.  
Then try to sell the new theme as a more modern, post-Covid look to the 
client.  LOL!
