Added option for updating theme name

After seeing this post: https://wordpress.org/support/topic/where-are-the-settings-stored

I also ran across another post about a possible new feature for import/export.

I was wondering how difficult it would be to add an extra option in the settings somewhere to allow updating the theme name in the database to retain any settings that were done before making a child theme and child styles plugin.

That seems like it would be the easiest way so you don’t have to go add all the settings back. We try to always do the child’s first to prevent having to do that, but occasionally another person will have use a parent, done the settings, then ask me to make a child afterward.

I think even a temporary function in the theme’s functions.php file would be helpful that could be popped in for one load, then removed – or just set to only run on activation.
