nice video
Nice
GREATEST!
Can't get you 3 steps to success. I get Oops! That page can’t be found.
Excellent job. Many thanks for posting.
The plugin has more than 7 months out of the update. Do we need to be careful? And the domain of this plugin is offline. Any update from developers? Thanks.
greate
Excellent tutorial! Thanks for sharing!
How to create a popup feedback form in a page?
Thanks it worked well 🙂
I gave a thumbs up. This video saved me from doing all this manually, didnt know they had plugins for this 🙂 Thanks.
It's sad that I had to spend 1 hour on someone's website explaining how to manually do this and I said screw that and came here. Sure glad I did cause in a couple of clicks I was done. Cheers! Oh…. I copied over the style CSS to the child so that I could edit everything in the child CSS without fear of over writing during main theme updates. I did however leave the CSS top of the page intact.
Thanks for this 🙂
Definitely thumbsed up.
That plugin cranks my CPU usage up to 99% from 10%. Even when I install the child theme without entering any code.
Really helpful! Thanks
My man! Thx 😀
Thank you. Really helpful vid and excellent plugin.
I get an error saying the style sheet is missing despite it being there.
Thank you so much for this video, 2h of looking into documentation and trying different videos, and here you are! worked from the first time !
Thanks, man really appreciate it
Thanks for this video, long needed. I have two doubs. One- Does this affect my SEO ranking of the original website? 2nd- It's an old video. Does this plugin still do the job perfectly? Please guide.
This is so useful! Thank you so much for the tutorial!
Thanks so much! I have one question, my website is fast finished, is it still ok to make a child theme now? When I active the child theme, can my design still alive? or will the website just come to the beginning view of the parent theme?
Any idea why my theme would not appear in the drop down menu ? It's called "trending blog" and apparently it is a child theme from galway lite. So I'm guessing we can't have grandchildren?
Awesome helpful vid! Thank you!
Ah, good thing I am a software engineer in another space…things make a bit of sense.
Turns out my theme was already a child of another, so I had to duplicate it.
The option to separate the Stylesheet also seems more appropriate as I need to make changes to the color, but don't want to overwrite the existing child theme color.
Let us see if I didn't screw the pooch here…
Great video regardless of whether it was an apples to apples, I got the jist:)
hey, loved this video! best and easiest explanation I could find!
Thank you
Waow, that was easy. Thank you very much, love your videos!
this was SOOOO helpful. the footer.php part was gold. thank you!!! Also, I'm so happy about how it transfers my previous customizations. You really made my day. I'm only upset that I went to another video before yours and wasted so much time
Do you have a foloowup video on how to add CSS? I'm trying to add directly to the style.css file in the child theme files but it's not getting through to my page.
which one is better ? 1: create child theme with plugin or 2 : create child theme without plugin, and use file manager and create new folders and copy and paste files …… ???
great tutorial ….thanks….
Still works in 2021. Good stuff man, thank you.
Its worked in the first try! Thank you so much!
