Child Theme
If you want to make edits to the theme without loosing them upon updates, you can create a child theme.
First, go to your themes directory, which is the folder where all your themes are present, and create a new folder.Let’s call it:
wyzi-business-finder-child
Inside this folder, create 2 files;
Call the first one: style.css and paste the following into it:
/*
Theme Name: WYZI Business Finder Child
Theme URI: http://wyzi.wztechno.com
Author: WzTechno
Author URI: http://www.wztechno.com/
Template: wyzi-business-finder
Description: Social Business Finder Theme by WzTechno
Text Domain: wyzi-business-finder-child
License: GNU General Public License v2 or later
License URI: http://www.gnu.org/licenses/gpl-2.0.html
Tags: one-column, left-sidebar, right-sidebar, custom-background, custom-colors, custom-menu, featured-images, full-width-template, sticky-post, theme-options, threaded-comments, translation-ready
Version: 1.3.0
*/
Save and close.
Name the second one: functions.php, and paste the following into it:
<?php
add_action( 'wp_enqueue_scripts', 'enqueue_parent_styles' );
function enqueue_parent_styles() {
wp_enqueue_style( 'parent-style', get_template_directory_uri().'/style.css' );
}
Save and close, Done!
Now, if you navigate to your wordpress dashboard, go to appearances, you’ll find a new theme listed in the available themes under the name: WYZI Business Finder Child. Activate it, and you’ll notice zero changes to the site, but now, you are actually using the child theme as your template.
