Common questions, child themes, and troubleshooting.
General
Using a Child Theme
A child theme is a theme that inherits the functionality of another theme, called the parent theme. Child themes allow you to modify, or add to the functionality of that parent theme. A child theme is the best, safest, and easiest way to modify an existing theme, whether you want to make a few tiny changes or extensive changes. Instead of modifying the theme files directly, you can create a child theme and override within. You can find more information here.
The Theme comes with an already created child theme (skytower-child). If you create customizations, it's recommended to use that instead of the parent theme.
Can I translate the Theme to another language or change some of the text strings?
Yes, the Theme comes with a .pot file which contains all of the Theme's text strings. You can translate the theme by using a program like POEdit or a plugin like Loco Translate or WPML.
