Great tutorial. I have a question here, if we convert any html to wordpress from scratch, in this case do we need to create child theme?

[@ieatwebsites]

You don't have to. But is very recommended. Please create a child theme if you can.

[@sinha95]

thanks for your reply. If I need to create child theme, then I have to copy all images css and js files in parent theme or child theme? (convert html to wp)

[@sinha95]

If I rename twentyseventeen theme folder to other folder, I don't get update option :)

[@PedroCruz1991]

and if you dont want to style with css, and style with sass on child theme, its the same process? thanks! Subscriber! ;)

[@ieatwebsites]

Sure! You just need to compile the Sass everytime you make a change to the Sass file.

Can you create a child theme for a free theme installed from wordpress.org? They do not show up in wp-content/themes. Thanks!

[@ieatwebsites]

You just need to download the theme here: wordpress.org/themes , hover the theme and click on the blue DOWNLOAD button.

All the steps are working for me except the fact that I can't found my custom.css file… Is it because i'm using a free theme ?

[@ieatwebsites]

You have to create your own custom.css file. Most of the free themes are using only the style.css

[@antoinebaguette2239]

iEatWebsites thanks man ! Is it easy to create from scratch such a file since i have almost no programming skills...

[@ieatwebsites]

Is easy, I don't have a video for that specific task but there's a lot of tutorials out there.

[@smsgandhimadhi9651]

how i adding images to the theme

[@marvins4646]

i have followed everything you did. The child theme is perfectly working but it doesn't preserve the parent theme, did i miss something?

[@sarveshchavan7946]

The Child theme is not loading style.css properties properly from parent theme instead of adding function.php file in child theme
