    Hi, I would like to know how to make a child theme.

    The usual way (the description here at ww.wp.xz.cn) does not work. It shoes the pictures, and the positions (the sidebar) – so there is SOME css – but most of the layout does not work. Like the title, it is displayed UNDER the picture in small letters.

    So please tell me how to make a child theme, thank you!

    I would also like to know how to do a child thme. I created one, it works, but I can not overwrite style.css, so I can not customize it.
    Thank you.

    Hi @andr3w1 and @brisch, sorry for the late reply!

    Creating a child theme is a bit buggy at the moment but I will try to get it fixed as soon as possible.

    For now, to make it work properly it seems like you have to copy over the Bootstrap css, which can be found under

    Lighthouse > css > bootstrap.css

    If there is still stuff missing you might have to copy over the original style.css too from the root folder, but I doubt it!

    To overwrite the css, you will have to write your own in the bottom of the sheet, so the ordering of all CSS would be

    –Child theme.css start–
    bootstrap.css
    style.css
    Your css
    –Child theme.css end–

    Remember that you can always add your css as well under “appearance > customize > additional CSS”, it won’t be overwritten here when you update the theme either
