    Hi,

    I’m a newbie, just got my site up and found a really nice video on YouTube that showed me how to create a child theme of the theme I’m using (twentyeleven). Any I followed the video, and successfully created a child theme. My question is now the only file I have on my child theme is style.css, so how am I suppossed to modify my site if the files I need are contain in the original theme (twentyeleven) and not the child theme? For example, I want to modify the header, so I need the header.php file, but this is in the original theme and not the child theme.

    When a header file is in your Child Theme, that is the one that gets used. I am not at my usual machine at the moment to take a look at my own, but I believe the header file is one file you just copy on over completely and then customize at will.
