In WordPress, doing creative things with design can seem like a job for a coding superstar. But it's not - you just need to be willing to cut, paste and edit three files. Do that, and you can make a WordPress site look like anything you want!
20. Two meanings:
A drop-in code library that
[helps us develop] a theme.
A standalone base/starter
theme that [we can either fork
into another theme, or use as a]
parent theme template.
21. The way I think of them:
Bland-looking parent themes that
actually do have most of the styles
defined.
We override with our designs - in
child themes.
Some, like Genesis, have a bunch
of child themes you can buy and
use – or even download for free.
72. Laying out the header.
Different in the two
frameworks.
Especially since I made
different aesthetic choices:
buttons in Underscores,
sticky menu in Genesis.
