Hi,

How can I import a site from the site library as a child theme?

I want to use basically a site from the library as a child theme (the Marketer Theme).

Thanks
Mathias

Hi there,

Try the steps here:

1. Import the Marketer template with the parent theme activated:
https://docs.generatepress.com/article/using-the-site-library/

2. Go to Additional CSS field in the customizer and copy the CSS in there in a notepad etc.

3. Activate the child theme:

4. Paste the CSS from step 2 to either the Additional CSS field of the child theme or style.css of the child theme
Adding CSS: https://docs.generatepress.com/article/adding-css/

Please excuse me for entering this old thread, but I have a question about this procedure. After copying the CSS into the Child Theme can I delete the content in Additional CSS?

Thanks.

If you've pasted the CSS to child theme customizer or style.css file, you can remove the CSS from the parent theme's customizer.
