Can i add all parent theme files to Child Theme ?

Hi, Rikard

For example i want to customize iconbox.php file which locate in parent theme in this was: Enfold/config-templatebuilder/avia-shortcodes/iconbox.php file

Now, if i want to add iconbox.php in child-theme to override the parent iconbox.php… then should i add only iconbox.php file in child-theme

or
with all nested folders like this way: Enfold/config-templatebuilder/avia-shortcodes/iconbox.php

please let me know must this.

Hi, Vinay

Its not working when only i add the file.php in child theme but nothing worked.

Real Example:

Enfold/framework/php/functions-set-avia-frontend.php

from above you see the funtions-set-avia-frontend.php which is nested in enfold/froamworkd/php folders right ?

now i customized only the unctions-set-avia-frontend.php and past it in child theme, but it does not work.

so, can i have to add the same folders too ?

like this: Enfold/framework/php/functions-set-avia-frontend.php

only the file i included does not work.

Listen directly my problem, what i am facing the issue with enfold child theme.

I add this file:> functions-set-avia-frontend.php in child theme, but it does not overwrite the parent theme file…means even adding it in child theme, the parent theme file work, not my customize ones which i add i child theme.

I also tried to add with the exact path in child theme, but still not working: like this: Enfold/framework/php/functions-set-avia-frontend.php

So, why it does not work. my site is: themezy.tk

why it is not replacing, this is impossible in any wordpress theme…?

Ok lets come to the point, i am making this changes….in file functions-set-avia-frontend.php

but it should be done in child theme

if(is_child_theme())
		{
			$child  = "- - - - - - - - - - -\n";
			$child .= "ChildTheme: ".$theme->get('Name')."\n";
			$child .= "ChildTheme Version: ".$theme->get('Version')."\n";
			$child .= "ChildTheme Installed: ".$theme->get('Template')."\n\n";

			$theme = wp_get_theme( $theme->get('Template') );
        }

to this form

if(is_child_theme())
		{
			//$child  = "- - - - - - - - - - -\n";
			//$child .= "ChildTheme: ".$theme->get('Name')."\n";
			//$child .= "ChildTheme Version: ".$theme->get('Version')."\n";
			//$child .= "ChildTheme Installed: ".$theme->get('Template')."\n\n";

			$theme = wp_get_theme( $theme->get('Template') );
        }

Meas i want to remove that 4 lines, i make those lines as comments..i dont want it to display in source file.

so how to do that in child theme, how can i add the customize file or any other way to do in child theme.
