Create a Twenty Twenty Child Theme

The following is based upon codex instructions for creating a child theme. It is specifically a shortcut to create a child theme for WordPress theme Twenty Twenty.
Read the codex here: How to create a child theme>>>

Here are the highlights to override Twenty Twenty:

  1. Create a folder in your theme folder using ftp or your cpanel file manager. Name it your theme name (no spaces)
  2. Create a file called style.css in this new folder
  3. Put this in the file and save
    /*
     Theme Name:   Your Theme Name (you can use spaces here)
     Theme URI:    your site's url
     Description:  Twenty Twenty Child Theme
     Author:       Your name
     Author URI:   optional
     Template:     twentytwenty (this is the parent theme text domain so it matters)
     Version:      1.0.0
     License:      GNU General Public License v2 or later
     Text Domain:  yourthemename optional text if you plan to use __()
    */
  4. Create a file called functions.php in your new theme folder. Add the “< ? php” on line one (spaces here are intentional). Then add and save:
           
    function twentytwenty_styles() {
    	wp_enqueue_style( 'parent', get_template_directory_uri() . '/style.css' );
    }
    add_action( 'wp_enqueue_scripts', 'twentytwenty_styles');
    /* remove inline styles (optional) */
    add_action( 'wp_enqueue_scripts', function() {
            $styles = wp_styles();
            $styles->add_data(  'twentytwenty-style', 'rtl', ''  );
        }, 20 );
    
  5. Next you can add the footer.php file as HERE. Just copy the twenty twenty footer.php file and remove the powered-by-wordpress section.
