Over the years, WordPress has gone from being a simple blogging tool to a user-friendly Content Management System (CMS). These days, it’s pretty hard to imagine the internet without it. Thanks to the tool’s popularity, many WordPress pros now specialize in creating WordPress themes as templates for websites.
These themes provide almost all the features that site owners are looking for and thanks to the huge number of choices out there almost everybody will find a design that they like. However, for a site to truly reflect a company’s corporate design, small tweaks usually still have to be made, for example, to the code or the structure. But what happens to these changes when the theme gets updated? Well, that’s where WordPress child themes come in handy.
