- * Child Theme Configurator creates or updates files that are already being read by the system. On the front-end, there are no database calls so WordPress can run independent of the plugin. In fact, you can remove Child Theme Configurator when you are finished setting up your theme.
153
  * Customizations are applied to a stylesheet file that can be cached by the browser and/or cached and minimized by a performance caching plugin. Because the editor creates mostly "overrides" to existing styles, the file is typically smaller than other stylesheets.
154
  * The code that drives the editor interface only loads when the tool is being used from the WordPress Admin, including Javascript and CSS. This means that it will not get in the way of other admin pages.

+ The Child Theme Configurator parses and indexes your stylesheets so that every CSS media query, selector, rule and value are at your fingertips.

Finally, it saves your work so that you can fine-tune your child themes without the risk of losing your edits.

  When you are ready, just activate the Child Theme and your WordPress site takes on the new look and feel automatically.

  = Why doesn't this work with my [insert vendor here] theme? =
141
 
143
 
144
  This is unfortunate, because in the best case they effectively prohibit the webmaster from adding any customizations (other than those made through the admin theme options) that will survive past an upgrade. **In the worst case they will break your website when you activate the child theme.**
145
 
146
+ Contact the vendor directly to ask for this core functionality. It is our opinion that ALL themes (especially commercial ones) must pass the Theme Unit Tests outlined by WordPress.org and ALWAYS TEST CHILD THEMES BEFORE ACTIVATING (See "Preview and Activate").
147
 
148
  = Will this slow down my site? =
149
 
150
+ Child Theme Configurator is designed to add the minimum amount of additional overhead possible and can actually improve performance. **For example:**
151
 
152
+ * Child Theme Configurator creates or updates files that are already being read by the system. On the front-end, there are no database calls so WordPress can run independent of the plugin. In fact, you can remove Child Theme Configurator when you are finished setting up your child themes.
153
  * Customizations are applied to a stylesheet file that can be cached by the browser and/or cached and minimized by a performance caching plugin. Because the editor creates mostly "overrides" to existing styles, the file is typically smaller than other stylesheets.
154
  * The code that drives the editor interface only loads when the tool is being used from the WordPress Admin, including Javascript and CSS. This means that it will not get in the way of other admin pages.
155
  * The biggest performance hit occurs when you generate the Child Theme files from the Parent/Child tab, but this is a one-time event and only occurs from the WordPress Admin.

173
+ = Why do my theme options disappear when I activate new child themes? =
174
 
175
+ These options are specific to each theme and are saved separately in the database. When you create new child themes, their options are blank.
176
 
177
  Many of these options can be copied over to the child theme by checking "Copy Parent Theme Menus, Widgets and other Options" when you generate the child theme files on the Parent/Child tab.
178
 
217
 
218
  = Where are the .php files? =
219
 
220
+ The Child Theme Configurator automatically adds a blank functions.php file to the child theme's directory. You can copy parent theme template files using the Files tab. If you want to create new templates and directories you will have to create/upload them manually via FTP or SSH. Remember that a child theme will automatically inherit the parent theme's templates unless they also exist in the child theme's directory. Only copy templates that you intend to customize.
