# Child theme query

 * Suppose there is a parent theme folder X, which has a template file t.php inside
   a sub-folder Y.
 * Now I create a child theme folder Z, create a sub-folder Y, and put a different
   t.php inside it.
 * Should t.php of the child theme replace t.php of the parent theme? I was trying
   it on a child theme, and it didn’t work. Is there a way to make it work?
 * Thanks. 🙂
