    hello dear wordpress experts, good day

    i am pretty new to wp

    run wp 4.1

    with theme 2014

    want to create a child theme – according this manual http://codex.wordpress.org/Child_Themes

    child theme consists of at least one directory (the child theme directory)
    and two files (style.css and functions.php), which you will need to create:

    The child theme directory
    style.css
    functions.php

    what needs to be added to the functions.php ?

    what do i need to add to the functions.php ?

    any and all help will be greatly appreciated

    That link you posted has the exact code you need to put in the functions.php file – this:

    <?php
    add_action( ‘wp_enqueue_scripts’, ‘theme_enqueue_styles’ );
    function theme_enqueue_styles() {
    wp_enqueue_style( ‘parent-style’, get_template_directory_uri() . ‘/style.css’ );

    }

    Read the article too :)!

    I had to do some digging around on that – as I’ve seen it discussed before, but here’s the current best practice:
