Assistance Setting Up Inovado As Child Theme

Hi Minti,

Awesome work with Inovado!
(I have been using it on my site for over 3 years)

But I would like to setup Inovado as a child theme.
And the last time I de-activated the theme to try do this, it broke the site (404 errors and white screens of death)
– even after re-enabling the theme again
– so I had to restore my site from a BackupBuddy backup to get it back to working again
– but I really need child customsiation for Woocommerce now.

So can you please assist me in properly setting up the theme as a child?
(and explain what might be going wrong if it crashes again?)

Note:
1. I have SSL Cert on my site, so I have made some edits to the core theme files (to convert all http to https),
which I can provide to you (or you already know 🙂 and we can place them in the child themes files instead.
2. I have an htaccess file that maintains my permalink structure – and also forces all connections to HTTPS via rewrite rules.
3. I have a ‘code snippits’ plugin (for adding a function to the functions.php)
– so after setting up my theme as a child, Im not sure if that will still be inserting into the themes core files, or if it will be then inserting into the child theme’s files?

Thanks,

Warren
