    Please excuse my double posting this to 2 forums. I noticed the other, theme specific forum doesnt get much traffic.

    So, heres the deal..
    I'm making a custom "starter" theme using the "sample theme" as my starting point. This will be my 1st child theme and I have most of my features (full width, cssgrid layout, custom widgets, glightbox etc etc) complete and considering I haven't looked at a line of css in 10 years I'm pretty pleased.

    Here's my problem. I don't need or want the child theme setup "stuff" that gets included with the theme activation. Is there a fairly simple way to cut that out of my sample theme? If so I'd REALLY appreciate some guidance/help.

    Thanks much!

    P.S. I'll be happy to share my child theme freely for others to hack or use as is when I get it a little further along. I'd love some "experts" to look over my functions, css, scripts etc and lmk where it can/could be improved or any mistakes you might spot.

    Yes, there is a fairly simple way to cut out the child theme setup "stuff" that gets included with the theme activation.

    First, you will need to open up the sample theme's functions.php file in a text editor and look for any code that is related to setting up the child theme. This code will usually be surrounded by comments that will indicate what it does. Once you have identified the code that is related to the child theme setup, you can delete it.

    Once you have deleted this code, you will then need to add some basic information to your child theme's style.css file, such as the name, description, author, and version of the theme. This information will ensure that your child theme is correctly identified by WordPress.

    Finally, you can add any custom CSS, templates, and code that your child theme requires. Once you have done this, your child theme should be ready to use just made awesome child theme check here ammostores.com.

    Overall, cutting out the child theme setup "stuff" from your sample theme should be fairly simple, but you may want to consult a professional developer if you need more help.

    What I encountered for the current year that worked was having chiefs at creation organizations let me know that they like my material and believe should accomplish something with it. At any rate, in spite of the fact that we really want to continue to compose, david martinez jacket for sale
