Customizing a Child Theme
Overview
Before we start it’s important that you understand what a child theme is. Read this guide from the WordPress Codex and also read a great explanation on the topic in this tutorial.
For a quick overview, have a look at this screencast:
Getting Started
To get started we need to prepare a child theme which means you’ll need FTP access to your host, so you can upload the new child theme. If you don’t have this, you should talk to your host so they can give you your FTP login details, and download a FTP program to upload your files.
Making the child theme
First we need to create a new stylesheet for our child theme. Create a new file called style.css and put this code in it:
/*Theme Name: Child WooThemeVersion: 1.0Description: Child theme for WooThemes.Author: WooThemesAuthor URI: http://www.woothemes.comTemplate: themedir*/ @import url("../themedir/style.css");
Next we need to change the Template field to point to our installed WooTheme. In this example we’ll use Object theme, which is installed under “wp-content/themes/object/“. We also need to change the imported style.css directory to point to Object. The result will look like this:
/*Theme Name: Object ChildVersion: 1.0Description: Child theme for Object.Author: WooThemesAuthor URI: http://www.woothemes.comTemplate: object*/ @import url("../object/style.css");
We’ve now got all we need to create a child theme. The next step is to upload this file to a new folder e.g. “wp-content/themes/object-child/”. Once uploaded, we can go to our WP admin panel and activate the child theme:
Activate the new child theme
Your child theme is now ready to be modified. Currently it doesn’t hold any customization, so lets look at a couple of examples on how we can customize the childe theme without touching the parent theme.
Example: Edit stylesheet
Lets try the same example as we did before, changing the color of the navigation link in the stylesheet. Simply find the styles like we did in above and paste them into our /object-child/style.css file:
/*Theme Name: Object ChildVersion: 1.0Description: Child theme for Object.Author: WooThemesAuthor URI: http://www.woothemes.comTemplate: object*/ @import url("../object/style.css"); .nav a{color:#ff0000;}.nav a:hover{color:#000000;}
After saving the file, and refreshing our browser you will now see that the link colors should have changed, and if you hover over the style.css link in FireBug, you will see that the path points to the object-child directory.
Styles from child theme applied to parent theme
Example: Editing template files
But wait, there is more! You can do the same with the template files (*.php) in the theme folder. Lets try to remove the top right description. This is located in header.php, so we need to copy header.php from our parent theme folder “wp-content/themes/object/header.php” to our child theme folder “wp-content/themes/object-child/header.php“.
Once we have copied it to our child theme, we edit header.php and find the description code on line 89 and remove it:
<p id="tagline"><?php bloginfo('description'); ?></p>
Then we upload our changes to our host and refresh our page to check that the changes have been applied
Removing description from header.php in child theme
Using functions in child theme
Although you can override template files in your child theme, functions.php will be loaded in both the parent theme and child theme (with the child functions loaded _before_ the parent’s) – so you can’t directly replace the functions already loaded in parent theme functions.php without some extra steps. For an example of how to override the parent functions, see this tutorial for adding your own theme options to a child theme.
TEMPLATEPATH vs. STYLESHEETPATH
WordPress has a few things that it handles differently in child themes. If you have a template file in your child theme, you have to modify how WordPress includes files. TEMPLATEPATH or bloginfo('template_directory') will reference the parent theme. To make it use the file in the child theme, you need to change use STYLESHEETPATH. The same goes for use of template_directory parameter in bloginfo() function, which needs to be changed to stylesheet_directory.
More info on this from the WP Codex
Alternative styles
If you are using an alternative style on your theme, then this will be loaded after the child themes style.css and overwrite your styles. There are two good ways to fix this:
1. Add body in front of your CSS tags so they override the ones in the alt stylesheet e.g. body #header { font-size:14px; }
2. You can unload the function from being outputted in the header by adding a functions.php file to your child theme (if you haven’t already), and adding remove_action('wp_head', 'woothemes_wp_head');.
Child Theme Support
Although we do offer basic child theme support that can easily be answered, it still falls under theme customization, so please refer to our support policy to see the extent of support we give.
We highly advice anybody confused with child themes to use the WordPress forums for help.

Customizing theme options through a child theme
This tutorial was contributed to us by one of our users in our support forum. We advice you to read our tutorial on child themes also if you want to get a better understanding on how they work.
After having spent quite some time figuring out how to use a custom theme-options.php (the file that sets the WooThemes options panel in the admin dashboard) in a child theme, without modifying the parent theme – I thought I’d post it here to save someone else the hassle!
Until recently I’ve been using a child theme for absolutely all changes I could – with one exception – the theme-options.php file. Every time I wanted to update the theme, I would have to add:require_once ( STYLESHEETPATH . '/includes/theme-options-custom.php' );
…after the following lines in the default theme-options.php file:
// THIS IS THE DIFFERENT FIELDS$options = array();This would make sure that my own include file loaded right before all of the default theme option entries, allowing me to add a few of my own in.
However this meant that the existing theme-options were still loaded after the custom ones, and would clutter up the theme options page with many no longer used entries. Also, the parent Aperture theme was not fully independent of the child theme, which made updating the parent theme more of a hassle, as files needed to be manually edited.
After reading the suggestions given here: http://forum.woothemes.com/topic.php?id=21563 , I tried doing something like:
remove_action( 'init', 'woo_options' );add_action( 'init', 'my_custom_woo_options' );However, this would always come up with a “Cannot redeclare category_boxes…..” error – implying that both the old and new options functions were being executed and not just the new one.
I managed to work out that this was due to Wordpress loading the child theme functions.php before the parent’s and not after. Therefore when the remove_action is performed, there is no woo_options function hooked into init to remove – since it has not yet been added yet.
This means that the remove_action needs to be deferred until after the parent theme’s function.php has been called as well – which is something that can be achieved using add_action. I first tried adding the remove_action to init, but that appears to be too late. So instead, an action hook after the theme functions.php are loaded, but before init action is needed.
If using WP 2.9.x or below you have to use the action hook ’set_current_user’, else if you are using WP3.0+, you can use the slightly more appropriate action hook of ‘after_setup_theme’. For more info on action hooks and their orders, see:
- http://codex.wordpress.org/Plugin_API/Action_Reference
- http://adambrown.info/p/wp_hooks
Anyway, enough of the explanations, here is the solution…
To have your own theme-options.php file in the child theme override the parent theme, do the following:
1) Copy ‘/parent-theme/includes/theme-options.php’ to ‘/child-theme/includes/theme-options.php’
2) Change the start of the child theme-options.php to:
<?phpfunction custom_woo_options(){…instead of:
<?phpfunction woo_options(){3a) For WP 3.0+, change the end of the file to:
add_action( 'after_setup_theme', create_function( '$a', "remove_action( 'init', 'woo_options' );" ) );add_action( 'init', 'custom_woo_options' );?>…instead of:
add_action('init','woo_options')?>3b) For WP 2.9.x or below, use this instead:
add_action( 'set_current_user', create_function( '$a', "remove_action( 'init', 'woo_options' );" ) );add_action( 'init', 'custom_woo_options' );?>4) Add this line to your child theme’s functions.php:
// Override WooThemes theme-options.php with own custom filerequire_once ( STYLESHEETPATH . '/includes/theme-options.php' );5) Make some alterations to the new child theme-options.php file and see them appear in the Admin Dashboard without having to touch the parent theme!
