    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.

    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?

    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?

    Hi Mak. Once a create the Divi child theme and then activate it will my existing divi theme website be transferred over completley?

    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?

    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)?
