Hey There ~
when using the child theme, I assumed I could/should place a ‘css’ folder there, in which I would just have the custom.css file, which is the file I do the most editing to.. but the website isn’t responding to it .. so should I be in the parent theme when working on custom.css?
In general, what files can should be maintained in the child theme vs. the parent theme?
.. and when there are theme updates, if you have a file in the child theme, it won’t get over-written .. meaning your custom changes are preserved, yet you miss out on any updated enhancements/improvements .. am I understanding this correctly?
many thanks!
Hey nulrick!
Thank you for using our theme.
You have to make your changes in enfold-child\style.css.
When updating you update your parent theme, so your changes in the child theme are not affected.
You should try to keep all your changes in the child theme and do not modify the parent theme files.
You can overwrite many parent theme functions – put your code in functions.php of the child theme.
