    Thanks for your quick reply. I just have a few questions:

    Is the child theme template included in the latest download?

    And just to confirm any file that i need to customise i.e functions.php or header.php i simply copy those files into the child theme folder then edit them in there?

    Thanks again.

    Hi Jyles,

    Kriesi has the download available in a comment on that video.

    Child theme information can be found here: http://codex.wordpress.org/Child_Themes

    It isn’t quite that simple but for files in the main folder of the theme (header, footer etc) the child theme version will be used first.

    Regards,

    Cool, and in regards to css if i copy the shortcodes.css file (for example) and edit the css in the child theme folder i will be able to update without losing the new styles that i have created for the shortcodes?

    Regards,

    You only need to include the styles you want to edit into your style.css file. If you pull in the entire file it won’t automatically be used instead of the parent however.
