Child Theme

Hi Mathias,

What do you want to change? Is it CSS only or also the structure of the theme?

In case of CSS only you don’t have to create a child theme, but add your custom CSS at the custom CSS page in your Customizer.

Hello, i tried to insert the search box into the footer section.

So i have to change the functions.php

( see example here https://www.wpbeginner.com/wp-tutorials/how-to-add-search-form-in-your-post-with-a-wordpress-search-shortcode/ )

Hi,

Create a new folder called “bluegray-child” and copy-paste files functions and style from parent BlueGray theme. Make both files empty.

Add this in the empty file style:

/*
Theme Name: BlueGray Child
Description: Child Theme of BlueGray.
Version: 1.0
Author: Mathias
Template: bluegray
*/

/* Underneath you can add your own custom CSS */

Add this in the empty file functions:

<?php
/*
 * Child Theme functions and definitions.
 */

// Get stylesheet from parent theme
function bluegray_extra_scrips() { 
	wp_enqueue_style( 'parent-style', get_template_directory_uri() . '/style.css' ); 
} 
add_action( 'wp_enqueue_scripts', 'bluegray_extra_scrips' ); 

// Underneath you can add your own custom functions

?>

Zip folder and install it as a normal theme.

Guido
