I was able to implement a child theme, but it doesn't go as smoothly with Evolve as it does with most themes. The theme CSS includes:
/* Theme Name: Evolve Child Theme URI: http://example.com/twenty-fourteen-child/ Description: Twenty Fourteen Child Theme Author: John Doe Author URI: http://example.com Template: evolve-child Version: 1.0.0 Tags: light, dark, two-columns, right-sidebar, responsive-layout, accessibility-ready Text Domain: evolve-child */ @import url("../evolve/style.css"); /* =Theme customization starts here -------------------------------------------------------------- */ After this, you'll need to copy the contents of wp-content/themes/evolve/library/media into evolve-child This theme doesn't take well to having a child created for it, the above is a workaround. When you update evolve you'll simply have to copy the contents of wp-content/themes/evolve/library/media into evolve-child again to ensure any updates to CSS/JavaScript take properly. A better implementation would have been possible if Evolve hadn't used constants to define paths to its resources; the alternative would have been to allow child themes to define paths back to the main theme for JavaScript and CSS media libraries. Let me know if you have any questions.
