How to install child theme?

I want to install a child theme so I can tweak the footer. I've been reviewing the information here:
https://codex.wordpress.org/Child_Themes

And also searching here (your search needs to be updated - it's too generic right now). Anyways, I saw several references to installing the child theme. I then went to the Betheme Documentation (http://themes.muffingroup.com/betheme/documentation/) and searched (control+f) for the word "child" - it isn't present in the documentation.

Is there a resource you can link me to that explains up-to-date steps for setting up a Betheme child theme?

thanks...

  • I would like to know this too! 
  • Hi,
    1. Download the child theme from themeforest with betheme
    2. Install child theme like a normal theme
    3. Activate it and use it.
    thanks
  • Great - thanks. I just went through those steps. Although, I will say this, the first thing I did was search Themeforest for "betheme child" and a bunch of children-oriented themes came up - so, that wasn't it.

    Next, I downloaded the entire Betheme again (all files and documentation) and extracted the files.

    Within the extracted files there is a "betheme-child.zip". That is the child theme that can be uploaded.

    Within that zip file are the few files needed for the child theme:
    - functions.php
    - screenshot.png
    - style.css
    - and a languages folder

    Within the functions and style files are comments to help with modifying the child theme.
