 * I’ve set up child themes before but have always used [@import](https://wordpress.org/support/users/import/).
 * I found this page: [http://www.wpstrapcode.com/faqs/my-child-theme-does-not-work ](http://www.wpstrapcode.com/faqs/my-child-theme-does-not-work)–
   but is this relevant to the Ridizain theme? (Well, I can’t get it to work anyway…)
 * I saw an earlier answer where someone had used [@import](https://wordpress.org/support/users/import/)
   for a Ridizain child theme and you did not comment that is was not the correct
   way.
 * What’s the recommended way to set up a child theme for Ridizain?

 * Hello zimbo000,
 * For Ridizain the [@import](https://wordpress.org/support/users/import/) is the
   correct procedure.
 * The notes on the link provided refer only to my custom themes that are created
   for WP Strap Code – Ridizain is a fork of the TwentyFourteen and I’ve retained
   as much of the original work as possible.
 * BTW, Ridizain now has its own home at [http://ridizain.com](http://ridizain.com)
   and its not part of the WPSC project – I had only used the site to facilitate
   the demo 🙂
 * Hope that helps answer your query but if there’s anything else I can help with
   please feel free to ask.
 * Regards,
    Zulf
