SiteOrigin North Child theme

By Paul L, 8 years ago. Last reply by Alex S, 8 years ago.

Hi all,

I want to create a child theme of the North theme. I am wondering if you could help me create the functions.php, header.php, footer.php, and style.css files. I know how to create the style.css files but I am just not sure. Kindly help.
Thanks in advance SiteOrigin.

    Hi Paul,

    Please refer to this page on how to create a child theme. It was written with Vantage in mind but the same concept applies to North. Instead of setting the template vantage however, you should set it as siteorigin-north.

    Here’s a basic child theme that you can use. Just simply copy over the parent themes header.php and footer.php file and you’ll be good to go.

      Hi Krayzie,

      Sorry mate – updated it now. Annoyingly that link was meant to work for 30 days but apparently 1 day is close enough to 30. :/ This new link won’t expire.
