I modified the CSS and two lines in the function.php file.

Look I’m new at this. My friend wanted me to create a website for her using wordpress so I did. I never even heard about a child theme until a couple of days ago but it was too late I already made modifications to the parent theme. I made a rookie mistake. What files do I need to make to create my child theme. The parent theme seems to be effected by this.

okay. Thank you for all your help!

Thank You! But after I get the child theme setup how do I change the footer.php file. Do I put the code for the navigation bar somewhere else?

I’m using the one that my host provider: cpanel has. It called cPanel File Manager v3.

But the have a place for FTP accounts and I FileZilla plugin it looks like.

What is the difference between a FTP and a file manager?
Can I create child themes using WAMP?

I tried making a child theme before but it doesn’t seem to work for me. I even tried doing one with the default theme wordpress twenty eleven and nothing. I followed the codex example for child themes.
I keep getting this error

This child theme requires its parent theme, Twenty Twelve.

I even tried using different plugins for creating child themes and the same error pops up. I even tried including a license but it didn’t work.

It worked! Thank you WPyogi!
One more question. I’m using Jetpack’s css editor. Do you know where all the css revisions that I make go?

Try using Firefox inspect tools to get the names of the classes and ids.
Just press ctrl +shift + i. This allows you to change your css automatically. Once you found something you like copy and paste it to you style.css file.

I used Firefox inspection to text it out but to no avail.
Here is the original css code.
#sidebar {
float: left;
width: 220px;
color: rgb(51, 51, 51);
line-height: 36px;
}

I only made tweaks to the background color and the psuedo class.

Sorry about that.

I don’t know anything about php. I’m too afraid to touch it. Here is the code:

<footer id="footer">
			<?php get_sidebar( 'footer' ); ?>
 			<nav id="access" role="navigation">
 				<?php wp_nav_menu( array( 'theme_location'  => 'primary_nav', 'container_id' => 'primary-nav', 'container_class' => 'nav', 'fallback_cb' => 'minimatica_nav_menu' ) ); ?>
			</nav><!-- #access -->
		</footer><!-- #footer -->
	</div><!-- #wrapper -->
	<?php wp_footer(); ?>

I’m using the minimatica theme and for some reason the footer is about the navigation bar.

I used the advanced excerpt plugin and changed the settings.
