About WordPress Child Theme

Note: It’s recommended to install and activate also the Child Theme provided with Residence theme pack if you have in mind to make modifications to theme core files, or to translate the theme.

A child theme automatically inherits the parent theme’s features, styles, and templates.

This allows you to make changes to your site using child themes without ever modifying the parent theme.

When a new version of the parent theme arrives, you can safely update it as all your modifications are saved in the child theme. A child theme built on a powerful theme framework allows a great deal of flexibility without writing a lot of code.
