    Hi

    If I want to use functions.php in a child theme do I just drag it into the child theme or copy it?

    Thanks

    Hey Richard!

    Child theme functions.php is not meant to be an exact copy of the parent theme functions.php but more of an empty file to put custom functions, hooks, etc.

    Hi Josue

    If that is the case then I need some help please.
    I have a functions.php file in the child theme with the following inside it

    <?php
//add payment method to woocommerce order email
add_action( 'woocommerce_email_after_order_table', 'add_payment_method_to_admin_new_order', 15, 2 );
function add_payment_method_to_admin_new_order( $order, $is_admin_email ) {
  if ( $is_admin_email ) {
    echo '<p><strong>Payment Method:</strong> ' . $order->payment_method_title . '</p>';
  }
}
if ( is_product_category( 'large_filters' ) ) { $custom_sidebar = 'special'; }
if ( is_product_category( 'ultra-chic' ) ) { $custom_sidebar = 'special'; }
if ( is_product_category( 'accessories' ) ) { $custom_sidebar = 'special'; }

    My problem is the last three code lines are not working. They do work if I put them into the main functions.php file but that gets overwritten with updates.
    Regards

    Hey Richard!

    Try copying sidebar.php to your child theme directory and putting those three lines there instead (around line 39-40).
