## Beschrijving

Create child themes from any non-child theme with the click of a button.

This plugin is multisite compatible; if used on a multisite network, controls for
creating child themes will be in the network admin instead of the regular site admin.
Pick the parent theme from the dropdown and name name your new child theme. You 
can also change the author name and select files you want to copy from the parent
to the new theme.

Click the button and you’re all set!

## FAQ

  Installation Instructions

 1. Upload the `child-themify` directory and its contents to the `/wp-content/plugins/`
    directory (or your custom location if you manually changed the location).
 2. Activeer de plugin via het ‘Plugins’ menu in WordPress
 3. You can now create a child theme of any non-child theme you have installed by going
    to the “Create Child Theme” page in the Appearance/Themes admin menu.

  Why do you use @import instead of enqueueing the stylesheet?

I [catch a lot of flack](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/method-not-recommended/)
for not using the method recommended to theme developers for including stylesheets,
so hopefully you one-star fanatics will see this first and reconsider.

This plugin is not creating themes for submission to the repo and it doesn’t have
any control over the quality of the theme it’s extending. In order for this plugin
to successfully enqueue the child theme AND parent theme’s style.css, the parent
theme has to actually enqueue its own stylesheet (not a given by a long shot), it
has to be done using `get_template_directory_uri()`, not `get_stylesheet_directory_uri()`(
also not a given), and, in order for the child stylesheet to be enqueued _after_
the parent’s (kind of important for a child theme), there has to be some kind of
reliable naming convention for the enqueue ID in the parent theme (no such standard
exists). On the other hand, `@import` just works. It’s the only available method
that gets the child theme working in virtually all cases out of the box.

And if you really can’t bear the thought of using `@import`, just edit the files
after creating the theme so that it no longer uses it. It’s _your_ theme, you can
do as you like with it.

  How much does this plugin do?

This plugin _only_ creates the theme for you. It doesn’t do anything to the database,
it doesn’t do anything to your new child theme after you’ve created it. It only 
gives you buttons to create a child theme.

  Where can I get some help?

I’d really prefer that you use [Github’s issue tracker](https://github.com/johnpbloch/child-themify/issues/new).
The [WordPress.org support forum for the plugin](https://wordpress.org/support/plugin/child-themify)
will work too, it will just take longer.

All I did was activate this nightmare, and my entire site shut down. I had to have
my hosting company disable all my plugins to regain access. Don’t touch it with 
a barge pole.
