    Hi Josh,
    I successfully edited the header.php of twentyten, adding the meteor slides template tag. Realizing I should have done this in a child theme, I’ve copied the header.php to my child theme folder.
    Reading through this forum it appears I don’t need to declare the change in functions.php. Why is that?
    Thank you for your help,
    aeastwood

    When you use a child theme, it checks the child theme’s directory for a template file first. If it finds one there, it loads that file, if not, it looks in the parent theme for the file. So all you need to do is copy the header.php file in there and WordPress will automagically use that instead.
