 * Hi,
 * So i have read the advantages of creating a child theme. But what i want to know
   is do i have to know coding, html, css, etc to be able to make custom changes
   to the theme. I am new and have no idea about creating websites. However, i am
   trying to create one.
 * Thank you for your help in advance.
