Re: Header Color in Child Theme

Yes. I realise that.

I was just trying to learn how to create a child theme, but didn’t understand the instructions about functions.php

I thought I’d give my bloggers an opportunity to choose a theme with a different header color, rather than having to upload a new image.

I thought that would give me the opportunity of learning a bit about child themes by changing the header colour, and that may point me in the right direction for changing other more difficult things later.

Still don’t know how to create a child theme that has a different default header color, or about functions, but I do appreciate your replies and help thus far.

Thanks for your suggestion.

I’ve tried background: url(/www/wp-content/themes/themename/img/default_header_red.jpg)

I’ve also deleted each of these folders in turn and resaved, but still not working.

In the default theme functions.php there’s a line that starts #header { background-image: url

So I’ve also used your suggestion but using background-image:url etc
