Hey guys,
\nFor any people have ever used WordPress, the concept “Child Theme”<\/strong> is not strange with them. So why we have to create child theme? As we know, when using themes we usually have trend to fix directly on theme something like Css, code inside. However this is very dangerous if later we update new version,\u00a0those changes will lose because the files of the new version override
\nTherefor, creating child theme will help you feel comfortable to change code and Css without worrying to lose any\u00a0changes you made\u00a0before because when you update theme, you only need to update parent theme and keep child theme.
