Hi, I wish to buy the premium theme for vantage. But would wish to use the child theme of the premium version. Is that an option? Please let me know. Thank you.
Hi Amreen
You can checkout our premium offering from Appearance > Vantage Premium. You’ll see this option available with Vantage Free activated. It’s possible to create a child theme for Vantage before or after upgrading, it’s up to you. You’ll only need a child theme if you’ve directly edited code in theme files.
Hope that helps.
Hello Andrew,
Thanks a ton for your response!
That helped. Also, I wanted to ask as to whats the best way to create a child theme of the Vantage premium theme?
Is it better to use @import(…) in child style.css OR should i go with http://codex.wordpress.org/Child_Themes ??
For sure.
Most of your customisations can most likely be done using Custom CSS, here is our tutorial on that: https://siteorigin.com/basics/modifying-theme-design-with-custom-css/. You’ll only need a child theme if you’re planning on editing theme files, other than style.css, at a code level.
If you do create a child theme you can use the @import method outlined at the above child themes tutorial page, although the functions.php enqueue method is preferred.
Thank you so much. :)
For sure, glad we could help.
