Thanks for the video but since I am new at this, how do I install this new child theme in a subdomain of my active site so I can make changes to it but not affect my main site? Thanks in advance for any help.
Very helpful MAK .
Hi Mak, the child build page works but, when I try to use my own child theme, a Fatal error occurred if I try to open DIVI> >Theme Option Page in my web site… so… I don't know!!! Any suggestion? Thank you!
What CSS do I put in the editor and where do I find this CSS? If I activate the child theme does it deactivate my parent theme? If I do some editing in the child theme how does it get added to my parent theme?
Hard to believe it can be done so easily thank you! So any and all CSS has to be done in the child theme editor from that point on? Or are there any exceptions?
Thanks for the video, first time doing a child theme, couldn't have been more straight forward.
Great tip, I was going crazy with this!!! Thank you so much for sharing.
Hi Mak…Thanks for this and all awesome tutorials..i really like to watching them..Can you please help me with one issue ?..Currently working on 4 websites at a same time and on one i missed to upload a child theme at a start…Is it possible to upload it later, then modify something ?..i like to upload a Child theme before updating a WordPress because of coding errors…Thanks in advance and kind regards…
What about other files? For example if I modify functions.php, page.php or other, do I just put them into child theme folder to make sure it's not overwritten by an Divi update?
Anyone out there having problems with the .jpg screenshot file showing in the theme select page?
SO clear and simple to follow, Thanks Mak
I have done just like you said, BUT i cant see any "edit" bottom, how can import my css in there? or import my divi child into wordpress please

Hi, in the video you don't appear to activate the child theme. Once I have followed your comprehensive and easy to follow instructions do I simple activate the child theme?
with one of the latest Divi updates my child theme stopped working. How can i fix this?
Thank you, mak

Does this method work also to create a child theme for the blog (ref. Divi blog post How to Add Custom Templates and Design to Divi’s Blog Post Formats)?
