    I’d like to make some modifications to a template file (includes/helper-main-menu.php) and also I have lots of CSS changes that I have placed into the Quick CSS field.
    I think it would be better to create a child theme of Enfold, and place this modified template file and my extra CSS in this new theme.
    I tried creating a child theme of Enfold but it did not display any of the styling that I had applied via the WYSIWYG WP interface so it looked like a plain Enfold template.
    What’s the best way to create a child theme? Would this be the best way to accomplish what I want (change a template file and add an extra CSS file)?

    Hi BarkProductions!

    I create a simple child theme in this video: http://kriesi.at/documentation/enfold/using-a-child-theme/

    And you can download one there on that page. If you are familiar with github I have a repo you can download/fork as well https://github.com/DevinVinson/enfold-child-starter

    All of your css would go in the child theme style.css.

    Cheers!

    I created a child theme, imported the parent theme data using that quick easy button in the ‘import / export’ tab.
    Then I had to fix my settings for my menu.
    And save the Enfold theme quick css.
    And my child theme looks normal now.
    thanks.

    hey Devin – what is the advantage of your “child-theme” on github to the one we can download here: http://kriesi.at/documentation/enfold/using-a-child-theme/
    ?

    Kriesi never updated the blank one from the bit.ly link so I created my own repo with a few included functions and the shortcode folder already set up.

    When I move the documentation site to the new version soon that link will be removed in favor of the new downloads section pointing to my child theme (or potentially a further tweaked one by Kriesi). When I wrote and recorded the video for the child themes I hadn’t yet done the git repo yet :)
