    Hi everyone.

    I have created a website using the theme twenty-twelve.

    Unfortunately at the time I didn’t know about child-themes, and I did all my changes on the main theme (new header, new style, etc).

    How can I create a child theme with all my changes in order to be able to update the main theme without losing my work?

    Cheers.

    You’ll have to move your changes to the child theme – which file have you modified?

    For style.css – use a file comparison program to find/move your changes to the child theme.

    For .php template files, put your modified copy of the file in the child theme and then replace the parent one with a clean copy.

    For functions.php, it’s more complicated – depends on what you changed.

    Thank you for your answer.

    Thing is I’m not an expert, I’ve just edited the theme online in WordPress Appearance section (header, images, style, etc), and I’m not sure which files have been affected after my changes..
