How to add child theme to hueman 2.2.3

Hi petripenttinen. Welcome to the Hueman forum. To create a child theme in Hueman:
1. In Theme Options click the Help tab in the upper righthand corner.
2. One of the options in the list is to download a sample child theme. This downloads the theme zip file to your local computer.
3. Install the new theme in your Admin panel by selecting Add New > Upload Theme > Choose File, then select the zip file you downloaded.
4. Activate the child theme.
You’ll now have a pre-configured child theme with a style.css file and functions.php file to which you can add customizations.

Thanks,

Any idea how I can keep the newer version of the theme as while installing the child theme it automatically uploads the older version (that is available through the WP theme tool).

I would like to keep the newer version of theme. If I activate the child theme I lose the features of the newer Hueman theme. If I try to de-activate the automatically uploaded older version of the theme the child theme is listed as non-working.

Any ideas?

thanks,

Petri

It sounds like you’re installling the wp.org version instead of the child theme. The downloaded child theme file is hueman-child-master.zip. Did you do this?

3. Install the new theme in your Admin panel by selecting Add New > Upload Theme > Choose File, then select the zip file you downloaded.

Hi,

I got it working after I made the following changes to style.css of the child theme :

OLD:
Template: hueman
Version: 1.0.0
*/

@import url(“../hueman/style.css”);

NEW:
Template: hueman-master
Version: 1.0.0
*/

@import url(“../hueman-master/style.css”);

wbr,
Petri

Thank you for your answer. I was trying to achieve the same for a short time before I came upon your post. It works perfectly. Cheers!
