hello Enfold team,
I just bought a copy of the template and I would like to create a child theme. As I noticed, if I create a child theme, whenever I update the parent theme nothing affects the child.
My question is: considering that updates of a theme are often useful as they fix bugs, or improve new functionalities, is it true that the child time will be not up-to-date regarding bug fixes, etc?
In this case, wouldn’t it be better to use the main theme?thanks a lot
the child-theme ( btw here you can download and look to some good advices: http://kriesi.at/documentation/enfold/ )
and here you can download a child-theme : http://kriesi.at/documentation/enfold/downloads/the child-theme is the best way to handle a wordpress theme and so for Enfold too!
the child-theme gets his “updates” via updating the “mother-Theme” without the risc to loose some additional information and rules in Child-Theme Options. you have the great advantage to have in the child-theme folder a functions.php which can add new features to your Theme without the loss of functionality when updating the “mother-Theme”btw. : i do prefer the ftp update for enfold – and never use the Dashboard Option.
