Create a Child Theme In Wordpress

Step:1 Create a child theme folder

ØFirst, create a new folder in your themes directory, located at wp-content/themes.
ØThe directory needs a name. It’s best practice to give a child theme the same name as the parent, but with -child appended to the end. For eg. Parent theme is kickstart then put its chield theme as kickstart-child.

Step:2 Create a stylesheet: style.css

ØThis tells WordPress basic info about the theme, including the fact that it is a child theme with a particular parent.
ØThe following information is required:
· Theme Name – needs to be unique to your theme
· Template –  the name of the parent theme directory

Step:3 Create a functions.php file

ØCreating a functions.php file is optional. It is only needed if you intend to add additional PHP code to your theme.
