rickrduncan.com: rename genesis child theme

coolestguidesontheplanet: creating WordPress child theme genesis framework

artofblog.com: building a genesis child theme

https://my.studiopress.com/docs/building-child-themes/

https://my.studiopress.com/tutorials/import-demo-content/

I decided to download the Genesis Metro Child theme. Took a copy of the full folder.
I renamed the copied folder to Custom and the Theme Name inside the top style.css to Custom etc.

/*
 Theme Name: Custom 
 Theme URI: https://www.easywebdesigntutorials.com
 Description: A custom Genesis child theme
 Author: Paal Joachim Romdahl
 Author URI: https://www.easywebdesigntutorials.com/easywebdesigntutorials.com/
 Version: 1.0
 
 Template: genesis
 Template Version: 2.0.0
 
*/
 
/* Import CSS files */ 
@import url(assets/css/forms.css);
@import url(assets/css/widgets.css);
@import url(assets/css/nav.css);
@import url(assets/css/theme-colors.css);
@import url(assets/css/custom.css);

 

In the functions.php file I changed:

//* Child theme (do not remove)
define( 'CHILD_THEME_NAME', __( 'Custom Theme', 'custom' ) );
define( 'CHILD_THEME_URL', 'https://www.easywebdesigntutorials.com/easywebdesigntutorials.com/' );
define( 'CHILD_THEME_VERSION', '1.0' );
