Child Themes

Use a child theme for site-specific PHP, template, or CSS changes that should not be written directly into the HoverCraft parent theme.

• Keep HoverCraft installed as the parent theme.
• Set Template: hovercraft in the child theme stylesheet.
• Activate the child theme in Appearance → Themes.
• HoverCraft automatically loads both the parent and active child theme style.css files, so separate parent-stylesheet enqueue boilerplate is not required.
• Keep normal theme settings in the WordPress Customizer when a child theme is not required.

An example HoverCraft child theme is available on GitHub.
