WordPress Responsive Theme Child Theme Update v1.9.5.1 2014. The long awaited child theme update tutorial that will help fix your broken parent or child theme. More Tips Tools and Tutorials from #allanmvm from MindVisionMedia.net
Note: You don't have to copy the entire style css file to the child theme, that is just a simple way to get going for beginners and in cases when you will be modifying most of the style sheet. If you are familiar with css and getting code snippets from the parent style sheet, you can just add the sections you are modifying to the child style sheet.
You may need this code to import the parent file to the child although they say you don't need it: New style css path=
@import url("../responsive/core/css/style.css");
Also do NOT copy the functions php file to your child theme, just create a file named functions php and make changes to that if you want to modify the functions file.
