Fast And Slick

That’s a good point. I’ll have to make sure to get that into the next release.

Hi John,

I just posted to about your plugin in the Responsive theme environment. Here is what is in their ‘official’ Child theme. (Why, as yet, I have no clue.)
I am not sure IF you should care and I just wanted to keep you informed.

OBTW: the preview of the child you create has no image.

Hi Chris,

Thanks for your note. I think Emil is trying to give child themers a bit of a boost in saving them some time with child themes. My plugin can’t really be that broad, since I wanted it to work with pretty much any theme in the repo. My plugin gets you a starting point to work from, but unfortunately can’t do any of that work for you, because there’s no way to do so for more than one theme.

Regarding the thumbnail, it’s true. I have plans for adding files that will get added, copied over, etc., for version 2.0. I go back and forth on the thumbnail: although when first created, the theme should look the same as its parent, the idea of creating a child theme is that you can then tweak it and change it into something other than the parent. Part of me wants to copy the thumbnail so people recognize it as the child theme they just created, but the other part of me wants to leave it out because the thumbnail will almost never be what the child theme ends up looking like.

-John
