Adding edits To style.css area

Hi,
Could you please advise if it would be possible to add to the style.css area for edits I have
completed in the frontpage.php also the header.php files to save having to complete
the edits every time I would update the theme.

Warm regards

Tob

 

Hello,

You can use child theme for keeping your editing intact while updating theme.
You can also add "front-page.php" and "header.php" file in the child theme directory to save there there changes.
Download childtheme attached and upload it.

 

Could someone please explain in a little more detail how we do this please as it would help many of us.

Thanks.

Roger

 

Thank you Nitesh,
Just to be sure before I add child theme, if I add the edited "front-page.php" and "header.php" file into the child theme directory and save, when uploading the child theme, do I just upload into the Geo Theme files, will this replace files or run along side the Geo theme? Have not worked with child theme before. Sorry for questions but not want to make a mess

Also would anyone know where I could get a sales presentation for this theme, willing to purchase one if available!

Cheers Tob

Hello Tob and Roger,

Please follow detail below.
Copy your edited files "front-page.php" and "header.php" and Paste in the childtheme directory.
Then activate child theme. Your site will look same as it is while main theme was activated.
Now if you want to update your main theme then simply click update.
Your "front-page.php" and "header.php" which you have added in the child theme directory will remain intact.
Only main theme files will update or change after updation.

Also follow link given below for child theme detail.

Many thanks Nitesh, that is very helpful, much appreciated.

Take care

Tob
