create child theme even after editing parent theme?

  • i want to use this plugin to create a child theme. i will admit i am new to the whole child theme thing so my question is, if i have already made some changed to the css and php og my parent theme, will creating a child theme be a problem? or do i have to start over with a blank parent theme, create a child theme, then make my edits?
    thanks in advance!!

  • I have the same question…anyone?

    I would say no you don’t need to start over. It asks which files you want to copy over. It looks for the existing files in your theme and then asks you which ones you want to add to the child theme. So if you made changes to the head file already you can tell him to copy it over.

    When you update your parent theme, then the changes will be overwritten but not in your child theme.
