  Hi,

  I need to have a child theme.

  I create a child theme folder with functions.php & styles.css files, i copy the “assets” folder and “data/pages” folder as mentioned in this post http://para.llel.us/support/groups/goexplore/forum/topic/child-theme-5/#post-71402.

  But when i active the child theme, there is no header or content blocks on the home page.

  Do i have to copy other files ?

  Each child theme you create has its own theme options and settings, so theme settings you make in the parent theme are not inherited by any child theme you make. You will need to visit all the settings pages in GoExplore! > Home Page and GoExplore! > Theme Options to set up your child theme.

  All my CSS doesn’t load on my child theme, it missing styles on home page. I added this lines on functions.php file :

  <?php add_action( ‘wp_enqueue_scripts’, ‘theme_enqueue_styles’ );
  function theme_enqueue_styles() {
  wp_enqueue_style( ‘parent-style’, get_template_directory_uri() . ‘/style.css’ );
  wp_enqueue_style( ‘child-style’, get_stylesheet_uri(), array( ‘parent-style’ ) );
  }

  Do i need to add other lines on functions.php file ?

So I created folder, do I need to copy asset folder inside my child folder or I need to move everything from asset folder inside root folder of my child theme?

  As it says in step 4 in that post…

  4. Copy the assets

  Copy the entire ‘assets‘ folder from the ‘parallelus-go-explore‘ parent theme folder into the new ‘dora‘ child theme folder.

  IMPORTANT → When you update the parent theme, remember to also update the ‘assets‘ folder in the child theme, i.e. copy that folder across again from the parent theme folder to the child theme folder, overwriting the old ‘assets‘ folder.

  Remember that your child theme has its own settings, e.g. Dora > Home Page and Dora > Theme Options. Your child theme will begin with default settings, it will not inherit the parent theme’s settings.
