Reply To: Child theme javascript and include files

Hi Sally,

Instead of doing it that way (and potentially missing out on anything I add to the template-tags.php file in the future), look for the functions you want to alter.

If they’re wrapped in a function_exists tag like this:

if ( ! function_exists( 'function_name' ) ) :
function function_name()
{

}
endif;

It means I’ve made it so you can overwrite that function.

Simply copy the function (and ! function_exists tag) into your functions.php file and make your changes, and it will overwrite the theme’s function.

Hope this helps 🙂
